My New ST3

Thanks guys for posting your replies to my first message on the board. Your drinks are lined up at the bar.
In colour terms ignore the Avatar the bike is a red-un as was the Multistrada. A smart colour. I live at Keyworth just off the A606 which gives me easy access to the A6006 and the B6047. These are great biking roads in my opinion. Though to be honest any road is OK when I'm on my Ducati ST3. I love it.
When I commented that the Numpty was uncomfortable it was in terms of the sit up and beg position, the bars too wide and for me the seat height was a bit daunting because although I am tall I only have a 30 inch inside leg. The seat was comfortable enough but the standard screen does little to protect you from the elements, particularly on motorways.
After 50 miles or so I used to feel as though my arms were being pulled out of their sockets.
Liked that two valve air cooled motor which looks gorgeous and the underseat exhausts look really cool.
Thanks for the invitation to a Tuesday night at the Unicorn at Gunthorpe.
Regards
George
