Only thing better would be if it had one of our airheads aboard.
Keep your bike in good repair: motorcycle boots are not comfortable for walking.

Well, that's interesting.  Never seen one of those before...

Look closely and you'll note that both side panels and the tailgate fold up and latch, forming VW's idea of a pickup truck bed. There's one of these in the Denton TX area I've seen at the local Lowe's. Unfortunately, no Ducati on board.

I had one I drove for a couple of years when I was stationed in Germany many years ago. I lost it for a few days when I tried to match drink for drink with some cajuns from the Louisiana National Guard that were there for the summer.

Hard to out-drink a REAL Cajun, I guaaarantee!

I've seen the VW "pickups" but never the "quad cab" looking one like this.  It's kinda homely to the point where it's almost attractive!
