Back on the bike

multi600 · 04-Dec-2006, 13:09

Well it's been a long haul but I am back on my bike today for the first time in 3 months and it felt great

I just found out I am one and a half inches shorter than before the accident

and I was short then so the Multi felt a bit big when I jumped on it this morning.

well done Mike, i know how that feels, mind you I was only 1/2" shorter after my accident in 1984

you are now even shorter Mike????

you going to carry round a step with you then? - so you can see over the counter at the petrol station/pub etc?

Glad to hear you are mending well - hope to see you soon

Well done Mike, good to hear you are back-now don't be doing anything silly-like falling off again.

Nice to hear Mike, keep on recovering well!

What a sweet looking 748 - I used to have one just like it.

Is it an SP? I would guess probably not (wrong brake discs).

Still very very nice.

No its not an SP,I added the bits I liked,single seat,5 spokes,P34 calipers etc.Sold it intending not to own another Ducati,£1200 service costs put you off a bit.But...there was a 888 for the right money....
