I live in Brantford and have a S4r's and the Girlfriend has a 97 750 Monster there are also two other monster riders in town, as well as a spattering of other Ducks. I'm up for a ride most weekends and some weekdays too in the late afternoon/evening. Just let me know.

Hey Leefitz,

I just bought a 04' S4R and I live in Kitchener. So now there's two. I also know there's an 01 m900 just down the street from me, how I was told he didn't insure the bike this year.

Just thought I'd let you know you're not alone.

There are a few. Even a chick who rides a 620. I ride a Black S2R.

Once spring rolls around give me a shout. I'm usually up for a ride.

BTW.. That's my kid in the profile pic, - I'm a little taller.

Hi everyone,

My wife and I are moving from Seattle to Waterloo month after next. I'll be bringing my black S4RS (or maybe if I'm lucky, a new Monster 1100S!) with me. I just had a couple of questions for the locals:

1) Are there some pretty good roads in the area for weekend rides?

2) How is it just riding around the Waterloo/Kitchener area on a day-to-day basis? (e.g. is there a lot of traffic congestion?)

3) Is lane splitting of any sort allowed? FWIW, even when I lived in California, I never split lanes through moving traffic, but where I found it convenient was the situation where there's a long line of cars stopped at a traffic light, and I could just mosey up to the front of the line.

4) Where is the closest authorized Ducati service center (i.e. how far do I need to travel for my next service)?

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Not a bad are to ride around day to day but no real tight twisties. Their is a hwy that runs along the Grand River for about 20km.

I will usually take a 2 hour ride up north if I'm looking for a long run of curves.

Just south, in the town of Cayuga is the Toronto Motorsport Park. Runs track days. I have been on a few. Not bad for the price.

Lots to explore in Southern Ontario.

Send me an email when you are moved in and I'll ride over and introduce myself.

Cheers

Jon

hey bro,

Weve got a few ducati riders here in kitchener. I myself have an '08 695 thats been converted into a rad streetfighter. You'll see me around this season for sre- I have yet to see any like this one. My boy Brian rolls with me on an 08 S4rs Tricolore, and my buddy jer is on an 08 1098R (black). You can search me on facebook and send an add. We would gladly ride with you!
