[Ducati] Happy New Year!

[Barry]

Hey thanks for the info again Peter, I'll look into those dial indicators.
Happy New Year to all of you on the list also, I have been with this group
for a year and a half, and have learned a lot about my bikes because of you
people. Thanks.

I intend on being at Miller Sports Park for WSBK this coming year, hope to
see some of you there and thank you for your help.

Barry
