Very nice in black, I must say.

Those very sweet looking children aren't going to be allowed to use it as a climbing frame are they, Paul? :devil:

At least your wife seems to have adopted it. She'll be wanting to take her test soon, I guess. Ideal first (and last) bike for her, I reckon. Very nice of you to have thought of that when you were deciding what to buy ;)

Very nice pictures Ozz, glad to see that you have given her a good wash & polish, I am sure she will enjoy her new home, & give you many hours of pleasurable riding. Heinz is not a bad name but Monty!!! thats a boys name:(
Cathy now has a H**da CBR 125R in blue sat in the garage, won it on ebay last night, nice & local (Ollerton), we picked it up just before lunch & Cathy rode her home in some Glorious sunshine:).

LOL - Love the pic of your little 'un sitting in the red push car, eyes right at the 'Black Beast'.....I can almost imagine the speech bubble:

"You get a big black Ducati and I get this !!!"

Great pic - cheers - Frank

Cheers guys!

Yes the whole family love it (including the noise).

Strangely it got soaked in the torrential rain I had on the way back for about 180 odd miles but the only things I cleaned were the pipes with autosol and motrex 636 (something like that) on the tank. Everything else is as it was.

I suppose it had 180 miles of jet washing??

Chris, thanks again for the effort you put into me getting the bike. Great that Cathy has a 125 aswell. Hope she enjoys that as much as I hope to enjoy this one.

Poole Quay tuesday!

Nice one:

That is the smile of a new owner of a Ducati.


All you need is a black Ducati shirt to go with it now (cheaper than painting the bike red to go with the shirt)

Italy, which someone found for me. ;)

Hee hee, I am wearing mine as I type!

Typical when I decided to get a monster I saw hardly any down the Quay. Tonight I take mine down and there are 2 black ones, a yellow and 2 red. ******! Nice ride down and back though.....
