Kev you've seen him, he's as bad as Adrian a lean racing machine, not skinny as he is down the Gym training several times a week just no excess fat, well not until Xmas anyway.

Interesting Skids, I'm just having a quick total of kilos and decided he might be better off getting a different bike. I can know see why dukes are so expensive to truely race prep. All that magnesium and carbon sure sounds expensive.

Jon he wants to race the Ducati, he originally got it with the intention of doing BSS a few years ago after winging the NG 600 Championship and doing the odd MRO round, sadly sponsorship was very thin on the ground other than in the form of being asked to ride a R1 in the NG open races.

He has had the 748RS up for sale for a couple of years but doesn't intend giving it away. So the only other Ducati suitable is the 749R but with a wedding coming up and the price difference between what he has now and the 749R then it works out cheaper to add a few bits to the 748.
Simon also hopes to be able to use the Ducati for some of the DSC events, he is a regular reader of Pronto as a family member already is a member and likes the idea of joining us at some of the events.
