The Mouse & Toad Garage is looking like a wildlife rehab facility, with all the sick Ducs lying around. We finished rebuilding Mickey's wrecked Multistrada 1100 today. Among other things: new front wheel, reassembly of a tweaked headlight unit, new brake lever, winshield bolts, removal of a now unavailable accessory center stand, patching some broken body work, and a most gratifying use of a heli-coil for the front side stand bolt. (Why in the world would they bolt a side stand to the engine case?)
Desmo Steve shipped a used ECM to Houston this morning for reflashing to ST3 configuration, to replace his fried unit.
With any luck, we'll have three operable motorcycles in time for the ride to the Indy MotoGP... We do have an offer for a back-up ST1300 for Steve in case the Duc hasn't been resuscitated by departure time.
