So at the end of 2007 I got the motorcycle bug and with a new job I bought my first bike in January '08. A brand new 2008 Ducati Monster 695. The very last 695 they were going to get until switching to the 696. Black tank/bodywork with a bright red frame. Mid '08 I got into waxing it and cleaning it often and fell IN LOVE. Whole pics of the bike later tonight BUT, I got a brand new tank from Ducati in October '09 and the bike has been sitting in the garage since then. Tonight I picked up some 3m rubbing compound, Mother's clay bar, and Zymol wax and went to town. I got almost all of the orange peel out (I'm doing this all by hand) and it is fucking sexy. Glossy, smooth, sex. Here is a pic of the tank I took with my shitty camera a couple minutes ago!
