Hello....
 

hi
I've been reading the forum for a while now and thought it was about time to register. Out of all the Ducati forums out there I've found this the most informative and friendliest (/crawling mode off).
Since I was 18 I've had bikes (45 now :lol: ) starting with a kh400 triple, numerous other kawasakis ending up with a zzr1100. After seeing the 888's racing in world superbike I wanted, but could never afford a Ducati.
Four years ago I got myself a 888 and loved it. Amazing handling, awesome sound, a beautiful bike. I sold it last October and got myself an even more awesome 996R...mmmmmmmm. Unfortunately I've now got carbon fever and have got a "few" extra bits for her :D
I'll post some pics when I take her out in the spring

and yea I sold my 888 on ebay Natty.....someone from nottingham won the auction and got a great bike at a bargain price. It was a very sad day when he came up to collect it. But needed the money to buy my new one.

The guy who bought it was a mate of mine`s boss, he still has it along with a 916 he has had from new as far as I know ????

Welcome mate
