Hello racers... Just on the look out for a standard bike at the moment. Is the 620ss a better starter bike than the monster 620 ?.....or is it a matter of preference ?
Regards Kev

Kev, no real preference IMO although people do have there favorite. To be honest I think it's more cost effective to buy a bike already to race rather than start from scratch.

I'm going to be building up a Class A bike over Xmas to sell ready for 2013with an SS frame and Monster 620 engine so you could buy the best of both! :lol:
Rough spec - Motorapido overhauled, Baines-built 620 with 6-speed box, either APTC slipper or standard clutch, Showa adjustable forks, longer 900ssie shock, 916 bodykit, race loom. Rough price, £1500, depending on final spec.......:D

I've decided to sell the one I was thinking about renting as I need the space at the moment
(See here http://www.ducatisportingclub.com/showthread.php?t=171138 )
Looking for £2700 for it
I can look at doing the Class B bike as a rental, for now

The two race bikes for sale are built by seasoned DD'rs so will competative in the right hands. I don't understand why you would want to buy a road bike for top money then spend more money on it turning it into a race bike? You have a choice of 2 ready to race bikes in front of you. :confused:

Sorry, whole family came down with the plague over Xmas so haven't been able to start the build. At this rate it will be ready for 2014! :rolleyes:
Mines still sitting in the garage, Championship winning bike!
