Default the 696 Clothing Line?

http://www.ducati.com/shop/category....tid=cat1760110

Didn't see anyone else posting it here.

I was just curious though is all ducati clothing this expensive? I was looking at the monster T-Shirt and it says 40 Euros, that's like $60+ Dollars American for a shirt :\

yes it's expensive, but *usually* it's about dollar for euro once it makes it to the stores here. So it'd be a $40 shirt, not 60...

From the thread title, I thought it might be a new 696 feature.



If you compare Ducati branded clothing to other moto-related clothing, it does tend to be a bit more expensive, but that's all part of the exclusivity that a lot of people associate with the brand.

I ordered the Monster sweater in march from my dealer, so it should be here it time for the fall. [cheeky]

It maybe expensive, but all the Ducati gear my fiance and I have is worth the price. IMO.

I've only bought one thing (so far) but you can't really go by the price on the main Ducati site.

I just bought the Ducate Corse Windproof Jacket. It cost me 189.00 but on the main Ducati site I think it converted from Euros to be about 240 bucks. The dealer that I went to had a 2008 catalog on their website that had the US price.

Here's the one that I looked at:

Here's what I got, only in black rather than red:

Cool! You ever get any service done there?

I used to live in Byram so it was the closest dealer to me. Now I live in Chatham and it's pretty much equidistant between them and Cross Country in Metuchen.

I haven't had any service there no. I don't even actually own my ducati yet! I'm still waiting for it to come in the sales girl told me early may. She's not there anymore and now I talk to the sales manager who is saying "May-June".

I'm going to ask them if they can hook up the Stebel Nautilus to my bike for me since I am in no way good with electronics. If they do that for me I'll be sure to let you know how well the work they perform is.

My parents live down the road from them, and when I rode my Monster there 2 years ago, the clutch slave cylinder went out on me in Pennsylvania. I called them up the next day, and they squeezed me in and got me taken care of. Best experience I have ever had with work done at a Ducati shop. Very professional.
