Bit like locating The Corse header tank for Dave998, the one I took off the 998R when making it road legal again, Its probably in one of the big plastic storage crates under the stairs.

Due to this topic I have thought about doing a article or seven for Pronto
based on my years of ducati ownership, 2001 to now, all through that time I have continued with my club racing as well including DD from its inception.
In 2002, 2003 and 2004 I also assisted Adrian Crossan at the TT. attended a few Trackdays, Mega Meets, BMF rallies, Dinners Rideouts etc and even watched some idiot race a TZ250 at Silverstone and Pembrey, well racing it at Pembrey may be a bit of a reach
and over those years I seem to have aquired numerous types of Ducati

Chaperter 1 - 2001/2002 My First Ducati (916Bp and 916 Strada racebike)
Chaperter 2 - 2003/2004 The TT years (955 Corse & 996)
Chaperter 3 - 2005/2006 The DD 583 Years (998 Hybrid, M600 & MiniTwin)
Chaperter 4 - 2007/2008 The DD 620 Years (998R , S2R and 1989 project bike)
Chaperter 5 - 2009 An Update
