  1. Hi All

    I don't know how I've missed it but I've just stumbled across this forum and it looks cool!

    I'm an occasional visitor to ducati.ms and used to be on the old ducatisti forum, these days I'm a regular on the 851 and 888 forum. I'm mainly into the '90s bikes: 900SS, Monster (although I've never had one of those) and 851.

    My current bike is a 1989 851 that has a 916cc engine from an ST4 and lots of mods, I'm planning some more changes before the summer. I'll put a thread up in the Projects section.

    I've got a couple of other possible projects (if I ever get the time and if the wife doesn't stop hassling me to sell my parts stash!); an ST2 engined 900SS and a 900SS Engined Darmah.

    Cheers
    Darren
     
  2. Hi Darren Glad you found the site, wasn't aware that you weren't (aware!) - we exchanged pm's on 851/888 Forum. I'm guessing that could be Steve's old bike in which case I know the previous owner of the engine. :upyeah:
     
  3. Hi Chris, not Steve's old bike, all my own work!

    Started with a 1989 Strada, I'll put a thread up with some more pictures and info...

    Cheers

  4. Hi Darren,

    Welcome, sure i've seen you down on Poole Quay a few times. Can forget a bike like that! :cool:

    Dave.
     
  5. Looking forward to it
     
  6. Hello and welcome, might see you down the quay sometime?

  8. Welcome Darren.
     
  9. Salisbury here - I remeber one nice evening at Poole last year, the rest were a wash out!

    Welcome and here's to some sunny evenings this year :biggrin:
     
  10. Certainly recognise the bike from the Quay....
     
  11. Thanks everyone for the welcome (and hello Steve, I KNEW you'd be here somewhere!). I've put a thread up about my bike in the projects section.

    There seems to be a fair few Poole Quay regulars on here, looks like we need to organise a ride out one night; meet up somewhere out of town and all park up at the quay together.

    Roll on summer!

    Cheers
    Darren
