I own a 1995 Ducati Monster M900, and love it. However, I recently purchased an '06 Yamaha VMax... talk about power & looks! I'm glad to see Ducati went back to the wicked looking cat-eye headlights... did not care much for the vertical lights of the 999. I'm going to check this out at the next bike show, but I'm certain the seat hight will be too tall for me to consider owning one. I'll have to post a pic of my VX, the VMax, and the Monster.
