New toy, new friends?
 

Hello peeps...i'm a new member of your message board and the 'Ducatisti' having just acquired a nice 888. I've posted a couple of pics, she is a normal BP although the white number plate was added by the previous owner in sticky white vinyl. Looks Sp but can easily be converted back. She has a bit of carbon here and there, plus I picked up a new ohlins rear shock, brembo radial brake master cyl., and to put you ALL out of your misery, those Ohlins forks from ebay last week, heheh. As far as I know, they came from a 888 SP4 which Baines broke, the yokes have the limited edition SP badge number 034 on the top. Anyway enjoy the pics and hope to make a few friends...by the way, does anyone have or know where I can get a some rearsets? Cheers...Freddie.

Nice machine. Where are you from? Oh and welcome aboard!!!

nice to see you on the board freddie.
nice bike, another duke owner with class;);)
answer to your questions.
rearsets are a very hard to come by article, not many around for 888's even less for 851's

one small sugestion though freddie to enhance that 888, swap those pipes for some proper carbon termi jobbies, it will make all the difference.


if you get bored with them ohlins forks, I'll take em off your hands:D:D

Enjoy the ride, as they say.

cheers
Robin

Hello mate,and welcome to our mad world:lol:like Natty says we`re a bit keen in this bit.I believe you`re quite local to me:) `cos I`ve seen that bike in Veloce M/Cs a month or so ago,did look nice,but the owner wasn`t there.If you are local click on the link below,he`s your man for `51s and T8`s.

Superb - too clean of course. Take it out in *****ty weather to get it looking a bit more authentic, is my advice :D

If you live near Sparkin, you have to join the ride-outs with him, Fordie, Jools, KeefyB et al. There's a Christmas Dinner at Grafham Water too, if that's your area. 12th December. Anyway. Welcome to the DSC (alternative name - Dirty Scummy and Clean Club) :lol::devil::devil:

Not another 888! Gettin' to be common as muck. Think I'm gonna have to sell mine (ahem!)

Welcome!

Yeah right,Seeing is believing:D
