only downside is the clutch, just a tad on the grabby side, new plates needed maybee.

mikesps · 14-Oct-2005, 17:12

916 SP?

Redsps · 14-Oct-2005, 17:13

So what the story Robin, going over to evil, modern machinery?

Redsps · 14-Oct-2005, 17:22

yep, one of the very first 916sps batches, i'd forgotten how well these bikes go. still not a patch on the t8 though, but at least it works

.

rob, I was sliding into a depressed mode again with all the T8 probs, so found this little beasty tucked away at the right price, not a replacement for the T8, more of an addition to the collection to use more regulary if you get my drift.

just need to earn more pennies to cover their board and lodgings

just need to get out on it...

I reckon my ideal Ducati so far is an 851 SP3 with a 996 SPS engine. With the cams degreed, shimmed with small closing rocker clearances and the FIM chip my SPS has so much more mid range than the SP3. Still wouldn't sell either of them though.
