Hello

Hello,

Just picked up a 2004 749R with lots of nice extra's on it. Purchased from Motorapido. Did it belong to anyone on the forum? I came from a 600RR which I had for two years and managed 24000 miles on before a volvo XC70 finished it off. This is my 1st Ducati and a bit of an impulse buy! Not ridden it yet and need to get my gear repaired.

Looks lovely. Don't think the spare wheel in the photo will fit though.

You've got to do a little write up of your first ride on it (please)

See you at Cadwell on 15th?

Welcome

I was going to try the penny farthing look....... increases corner speed apparently, just trying to find some suitable front brake discs....

Wont be at the track day. Need to get my confidence back so a few rides in the New Forest first... Not ridden in over a year. So going to be taking it very slow.
