Sold to another DSC member that first owned a 916 back in 1996, Ten years later he has finally got his hands on the finest of the Tamburini designed models.

You will, for the rest of your life, regret selling your bike!

Well I woke up this morning absolutely gutted.

I didn't want to sell that bike, but needs must and all that. I know I'll regret selling it, but it was the right decision for me at the moment.

At least I've owned what I think is the best 916 shaped bike ever built, and arguably one of the finest road going Ducati's ever. And now it will finally return home to the racetrack in the hands of it's new owner so I'm happy about that.

I'm keen to get on a bike again, bring on Cadwell next week!
