Have hopefully just sold the 748 - money raised will go towards one in the spring depending on the reviews it gets !!

Are they coming in black ??? :-)

[gossa]

yes they are coming in black, i'm going to let my own test ride be the judge rather than a journalist whose interests, preferences and ego might be very different to mine.

Excellent, decided on your colour yet?

have you tried those platform Daytona boots melanie sells?

[JPM]

Charlotte look at the HM it doesn't half look like it's pretty much a MS with different bodywork maybe I'm wrong but can you get on a multi?

[KeefyB]

Well I wont be ordering one.
It looks too Japanese,..the rear end is a mess and far too many cheap looking plastic covers.
I'm sure it will grow on me in time,but right now I'll be keeping my 999S.

God help me

So this is a not yet then KeefyB ..................if you don't end up buying one some time then Ducati is in the deep brown smelly stuff

I can't think of many other people who have bought successive generations of Ducati over many, many years, I guess if you were as old as Monty you would have had every Model (motorcyclewise )

I'm still on the fence as it were until I see one for real.
