Following my short and fairly unhappy spell in the world of ST ownership, I'm now the proud-ish owner of a W reg 900SS.
This is not a totally new experience for me, cos I had a 750SS a while back (my first Duke), which I put 30-odd thousand miles on. So I'm used to riding position, the **** lights
, etc etc. And I have ridden a 900SS a times before (thanks to the late lamented Merlin Ducati).
I think I've got a very good buy for the money I paid. It's only done 7000 niles and still has that "new bike" tightness to it.
First steps will be a precautionary belt change (done only 2000 miles ago, but I'm thinking about the time factor), doing something about the ridiculously high stock gearing (14t sprocket on the front? What gearing do you guys run?), and backing off the plank-like suspension damping (at the mo, it makes my old 748 seem like an armchair).
Any other tips or advice?
