Ouch mate that hurts

I pride hyself on being the sort of person who picks things up and is willing to give it a go. I may not be as skilled as some of you but if i never try then i never will be will i? I understand some of you make a living out of people who cant / cant be bothered to do it for themselves but all i want to do is learn for myself.

Im 22 and already have more skills then most people i know. Before Xmas i fitted a kitchen for my girlfriend having never tried before. I also changed a shagged CV joint on her car without even having a manual or even knowing what a cv joint was.

I understand that a Ducati is a funny machine with lots of stupid things that can go wrong on it so if i can sort some of the minor stuff myself then it means i get to spend more time actually riding it (which is why i got the dam thing in the first place)

IMO its better for me to ask a stupid question on here then make a stupid mistake and wish i had asked.
