well i like it!i also like steve jones as i'm a massive fan of the sex pistols (for those of you who do'n know who he is,he was their lead guitarist).i do prefer the triumph bonneville though,as i'm named after it!
@bolerocrew Steve Jones is one the most important guitarist in rock history. He is the lead guitarist of The Sex Pistols, and if ya don't know who they are you don't know anything lol Hes a friendly guy, met him and also spoke to him a few times. Hes been riding bikes since the late 70's after the Pistols split.
I saw Steve pull into another LA Ducati Shop early in the the summer of 2010. He didnt seem to happy with this bike. He was adding some parts to it and complaining about the resevoirs. The chasis was painted an AWFUL tan and the blue color looks to modern.Overall NOT nice. Id say all this work would have better been suited on a Monster or street fighter.
Surprised by how defensive some have gotten over criticism of this bike. I'm a huge Ducati fan, but this is an odd custom. It appears they did their best to make look like a Triumph. Bullocks.
At 2:47 he says "I will probably never ride it because its too nice...laugh laugh, I'll put it in my living room" then one of the omoto guys says says "ah put it in the living room that would be good."
So I guess I miss guessed your age maybe you are old and in need of a hearing aide...or your speakers suck.
So, if you have the time, it seems you do, check out the time codes I listed and you will be redeemed.
Tigre1852, saw your bike on your Youtube Channel. I did love your nylon fanny pack mounted on your GT(VERY RETRO a tribute to the 70's no doubt) Maybe you can get a leather fanny pack , then you can look like the FONZ!!! another tribute to the 70's
Yeh, good pick up! Unfortunately the Ducati bag does not take a helmet otherwise I would have gone for that. Hey I listened a few times and I all I could was "I'll probably never ride it because it's too nice". He only rides it at the end and there are no comments after that. I'm just saying...
Steve's first reactions was "wow look at that"... he is low key. Did you want him to jump up and down like the old days?
He also stated he felt it was to nice to ride and he should put it on display in his living room.
It is nice to see you know how to install Slip on exhaust, so at least your not a complete moron. Oh, by the way the Ducati GT at the Motorcycle show was blue and if you research cafe style bikes racing blue was VERY common in the 70's when you where in your teen years.
Na, sorry. Just doesn't do it for me. The blue is a great colour, but not for this style of bike. The decals at the front of the tank (which I guess is something that relates to Steve-I hope) look totally out of place, and the reservoirs on the bars? Why not just hide them as other customisers have done? This model is a tribute to the classics of the '70s and this 'job' is just out of sync with that ideal. I think I'd have the same reaction as Steve when it was unveiled :-)

I'll probably get burned for saying this, but, it's pretty hard to make the GT1000 look any uglier than it already is... ;p

Looks like shit. They shoulda stuck with the factory finish. And who is Steve Jones, anyway??? He's too fat to ride a Duc Gt Sportclassic.
