Yes, I had insurance for the transportation process, so finacially they are responsible for these repairs. I will get the work done at a certified Ducati service center and they will just have to foot the bill.

Just disappointed to see damages on a bike I was so excited to get this week, but like you said, the plastics won't have a huge impact on it's value.

Looking at the bright side because of you... maybe I can get a unique paint scheme on the new fairings, as I do like to customize all of my toys, lol.

Thanks, Axius. Just good to vent to someone who understands the pain of seeing damaged goods... and the Wray and Nephews is helping a bit as well!
I wouldnt get that excited about it. Keep it as is, no changes, back to stock and avoid anything you feel they can complain about.

In the end its just a bike, so be sincere and not a dick, explain the circumstances with your proof and go through the motions. It will take time so be patient and itll work out.

Do NOT use Premier Motorcycle Transport to ship your vehicles. EVER.
When a friend of mine moved his Ducati he used PODS moving & storage. Strapped it down inside of it , they pick it up and drop it off wherever you want it sent. Not sure how much the cost is, it was worth it for him.

Husqvarna 324L string trimmer and a backpack sprayer branded for a local equipment dealer (but made by Chapin). Time to do battle w/ the crabgrass that is my front yard (not a grammatical error....)

Let the record show the Yeti Hopper Two 20 fits in the basket of a golf cart perfectly.

I own a couple of those trimmers for one of my businesses and I will tell you to be sure to fill the oil to the right level. They can get jacked up pretty easy if you don't get it just right, check it often too. One last thing is the choke, it will break pretty quick but it's no big deal just hold it up to start.

I've been using it for a week now and it's amazing. Makes very, very good coffee. Starbucks was having a 50% off sale, so I pulled the trigger.

I've had one for the past 5 years and I don't think I'd buy anything else. Perfect coffee and brews quickly.

One tip though from the mistake I made... if you grind your own beans, and you want to match your coffee maker, their grinder isn't so good. The plastic which isn't a problem in the coffee maker gets really filmy and gross and it can blow off easily if you're not careful.

If you wore both of those at the same time you'd look like a goddamn ghostbuster!

Thanks for the heads up. Is it finicky about oil in general? I figured I'd just grab some Mobil 1 to keep on the shelf for it. Husqvarna has their branded bottles, but it's a Honda engine so it should be able to eat dirt.

Ha funny. I actually resisted using TM woods, but after a long session with a high-end fitter the winning club head was an M1 430cc in 8.5 degree. This head with a Veylix "Arcane" shaft was expensive but worth every penny!
