Hi everyone,

Thanks for all the advice and the welcome ...

What a belting engine! It's a fabulous experience and makes a wonderful noise
I see very few Supersports around, which makes owning one a more special feeling

The paint finish is already imperfect, but I'll get Chips Away or the like to fix that and then get the paint sealed.

A Scottoiler and crash mushrooms are immediate requirements. Can anyone recommend some attractive mushrooms that would look good on a grey SS? I've used R&G in the past, but don't know that they'll look the part. I couldn't find any official Ducati mushrooms in the catalogue. (Essential insurance for track days and icy winter commuting.)

Also, has anybody replaced their nuts with stainless ones? I've always found this valuable too, but don't know if there's a kit for the SS.
