[Ducati] 1 year old 95 SS CR

[Bruce Bellm]

I've had a '97 SS/SP and a '96 SS/SP and I put 30K mi. on each. Both have 
hauled me and camping gear from CT to CO and WY. I've done 600-700 mi. days 
on these bikes in absolute comfort. Probably the best all-around bike Ducati 
ever made, IMHO. And, although I don't hate the PT SS, it was his design 
that caused me to rush out and buy one of the last of the '97's.
