Hello All
 

Greetings everybody.

I don't own a Ducati but am enjoying perusing ads as I am toying with the idea of another bike.
May have some questions in the process.................

As a non-Ducati owner, am I still permitted to buy a round?

Of course you are - Snakebite and black!!!! ;)

As for a possible Ducati purchase - good choice - as for questions, ask away!!!

Tim

at this time of the evening, I'll have a Baileys, ta:)

so, where are you from - and what are you 'shopping' for?

C:)

Ah snakebite and black - those were the days.
We had to stop drinking that around my way because all the pubs refused to serve it. My pool playing deteriorated from that day on......Hey ho!

Guinness and/or red wine man myself - on the odd occasion that I am able to imbibe.

i'll have a milkshake .. vanilla .. thanks .. welcome ..... and did you know theres a Sigma Performance tuned 996 for sale here ?? no ... oh you will soon .... :D

greetings jester, you have choosen the best place to start your duke experiance.
by the way , I think it's pimms oclock time now.

cheers
Red...;)

You'll never have any money if you buy one of those noisy dangerous smelly things.

So while you've still got some - Mine's a Draught Guinness and blackcurrant thanks:D

Baileys - good choice - one of the few drinks that I can still enjoy, even when I can't face the guinness/red wine. I like mine served cold with ice.

In virtual reality terms I am from Visordown via The Brew Hut.
In actual reality terms I live in Wiltshire (only for 3 years now)but originate from around Heathrow way.

Not sure really in shopping terms - I don't have a big budget, and prefer the 996/748 models or even the S4R but I am in no rush and just getting to know what is about.
Only ever thought about a Monster before but someone on VD had a nice 996 for sale and I discovered that I could actually get affordable insurance.

Not the one that come with a Full Monty breakfast or something is it??:burn:

ha ha ha .. he's seen the ad already .... ha ha ha

:lol:

Welcome Jester I'll have a pint of vodka and red bull cheers mate.

Shopping are you, questions are always welcome.

:D

:lol::lol::lol::lol: Hi jack D and good luck with your new bike

Surely............

Here is my first question -

Do Termignoni pipes/cans come in road legal form - I like the look but can't be doing with illegal cans (or number plates).

And if you are selling your bike, how come you have no pictures posted of it?

Monster/Multistrada Termis do come in road legal versions, don't know about all the others.

Welcome to the nuthouse......:lol:

Ok ..

1, I don't know if they come legal, but .... you can get them without the 'For racing use' stamp so they will pass an MOT. Mine is for sale with the standard cans and I have 54mm Carbon Sil Motor Cans to go with them separately. On the plate issue, my plate is 'slightly' smaller than standard size. I rode this bike into the 'square mile' daily, where the London City police operate, and haven't had an issue.

2, Because I'm a lazy git. I think I have some good pics on the PC upstairs ... I'll wander up there and see if I can find them.

My bike is a genuine sale, I need to move it as I've just bought a 998R. If you are interested you are more than welcome to pop round. If you're concerned about the state of bike before you spend the time to come over then please contact Neil @ Cornerspeed or Neil @ Sigma Performance and they will let you know what they think.

Feel free to ask me any questions :D ...

You've obviously seen the ad so you know what you're getting.

Incidentally, my sil motor cans have no markings on them whatsoever. I've been pulled by the police with them on and they weren't interested. And it's louder than my 998R!

They were more interested in telling me my perfectly legal tyres weren't legal .... but there you go ...

Welcome Jester come join the madness

:P Welcome Jester,you don't want one of those vintage bikes,get a nice 749/999.Good shopping regardless,mine's a Gin & Tonic with lime,thanks:P

welcome and if the bars still open I will have a half a guiness & pernod

Oi! Bugger off you!

I'll buy you a nice G and T if you sit in the corner quietly ;)

Oh! Go on then...I just had a Drambuie from SW...But another wont hurt!

Hello welcome and make that purchase...you know you want to...go on, go on, go on, go on!

welcome!!

I'll have campari n orange, no ice please :D

S4R good choice you won't regret it, much better than all these back and ball breaker sportsbikes - also quicker than a lot of them:D

Crate of red wine please, and welcome!:D

Scotch & Coke please.......................a large one thank you!

What Webby said.

Flanks, a committed nutter and speed freak, rode Webby's luverly Monster at the MotoRapido open day and has be grinning (and grovelling to his Missus) ever since.

Welcome, and hope you find something enjoyable soon :burn:

I'll have an espresso for now, ta.

Ade.

Afternoon and welcome to the mad house, well kind of, I see Tony the salesman... Swiss Toni me thinks now has not only introduced himself but you were already aware he was selling a bike before he even had chance to tell you!!! :o

Any questions fire away, there's plenty of people who've gone through the highs and the lows of the Ducati Experience, much like any other bike.

Can I just have a glass of water and an aspirin, having a BAD day :(
