well i have been made welcome i must say-paul is right i will stay with the 600 for a while, i do find that at the moment the front stopper single disc is more than adaquate but the brake lines need uprating to braided hoses so that will be my first mod- a mate of mine use to race bikes professionally he mentioned that some thicker oil in the front end would probably sort the non-adjustables out or some shims above the spring would help for further adjustment- i guess that is what the desmo due racers will do to their non-adjustable set ups? as for the the bike being under powered it does everything i need it too for the momentbut paul,is right i will probably up grade this time next year but am determined to stay with ducati -or maybe i just strip the lights off and go desmo due racing ?

any way wheres the bar?oh i will join when this months cheque clears!!!!!!!!!
