Cool New bike...it's red and shiny

Been considering this since I had a ride on one at Cadwell last month. It would mean selling all the other bikes for just this one, I couldn't resist
There was a great deal on it and the PX was better than I thought too, so say hi to the new Ducati 848



Getting it in a couple of weeks and trying to run it in for a trackday we've got booked...but I don't think it'll be ready in time!

Well, we'll see No real horror stories about them as yet...a bit of trouble with water in the loom from people keeping them outdoors, I don't forsee my bike being left out for long enough for that to happen. Fingers crossed eh!?

Thumbs up Re: New bike...it's red and shiny

That's rather nice is that.

Enjoy.

In the Bible, God made it rain for 40 days and 40 nights. That's a pretty good summer for us in Wales. That's a hosepipe ban waiting to happen. I was eight before I realised you could take a kagoule off.(Rhod Gilbert)

Make sure its had the recall work done.
