Alan says it will take all night to list what he had had, as he is quite old and has had a number of bikes, so the post would be quite long! First bike was as a 14yr old in late 1970
Suffice it to say: he only had his first Ducati in 2003 - when he brought the bits for the 'project'.
This was mainly done because he liked the people who he met on the Ducati's via both clubs - and had done Kwaks 'to death' as projects & dragsters.
