Rode down on Saturday with Ducati Thonglor's Chum on a Hypermotard, head mechanic Jay on a Monster 1100 and joined by a Streetfighter S. Boy, did I ache after that. Hit torrential rain a few times at Chumphon and Phangna but the sweeping curves to Phuket made up for the drenching.

As mentioned earlier, everyone's welcome to the opening but I'm trying to persuade them to bar er6n owners in order to keep out the riff-raff.

Holly cow! Almost 3 million baht for a 1198R CORSE......and it doesn't even come with Oggi knobs or a top box!

Hello Gerd,

I think neverdie ironically suggested to show off his new automatic scooter.

Went last night with friend of mine (aroyphuket here on TV) who owns Ducati SUPERSPORT 900.

To our surprise it was actually nice event. We didn't expect much considering the size of showroom but they removed fruit stand and erected the tent instead.

Of course, immediately I went looking for CORSE but it was hidden inside the showroom untill VIP guest arrived. Nevertheless, Ducati Thailand general sales manager Khun Chumpon took us in to take a look at this baby. What to say, it took my breath away!

For some reason Kaeng (Ducati Phuket owner) expected me to make a booking but I told him this bike will remain my wet dream at least until I become rich and famous. 2,9 million baht ain't pocket change....

All visitors were given free Ducati Phuket t-shirts and ticket to participate in lucky draw. Some folks won Ducati windbreakers, caps and bunch of other little things.

There was a mini-buffet with sushi, spring rolls, fruit etc. Soft drinks were served.

Finally VIP guest arrived, sorry I didn't catch who he is. Spoke something in Thai and declared showroom officialy open.

Dancers took to the stage and performed to the tune of "I am horny" song.....

Sadly, in my and other guests opinion, launch of showroom was poorly advertised. I wouldn't even know about it if Kaeng didn't tell me. There was no mention about it at their Jung Ceylon exhibition stand either.

Here are some pics, excuse the poor quality, photos taken by cell phone camera.

I finally saw a Streetfighter S in Phuket last week and I was amazed how small it is. I parked my f800 next to it and it looked like a mini stunt bike. Shame! I have no chance of folding my huge legs onto that puppy.
