Italian Living In London With A Streetfighter

  1. Of course, really nice road. In all fairness, any B road in Italy is wonderful, especially the ones either going down to the sea side from Milano/Torino or upwards to the lakes/mountains. I can recommend roads if you plan to go to IT soon
     
  2. I go to Italy most years. But all plans cancelled this year, obviously.
     
  3. Do you reckon Mugello will be open for a track day and Bologna taking flights from UK end of August?
     
  4. You’re lucky I’m not joining in the fun :grinning:

    Bike or car..... mwu ha ha ha haaar.....:p
     
  5. nice. when did you order it? I ordered back in July last year and no idea as yet when i can expect it. hopefully find out when they reopen next week???

  6. Car?? You changed that dated old beetle with the engine in the wrong place then? :(

    Besides, you're too girly to ride on the road anyway. Pansie !!

  7. Hi, I ordered it from the dealership in Milan the afternoon after the global launch and was the 2nd in the list. The bike arrived at the dealership almost a month and a half ago but was then locked there as non essential businesses had to close. Now that things are mostly back to normal they have already delivered quite a few and the dealer was telling me that if you walk in now ordering one you’ll wait approximately 4 to 6 months.
     
  8. I work for an Italian company and we are planning all activities in Italy from July onwards. I heard all tracks are reopening. Specifically for Mugello I have friends that have already booked the first available track days for the 9th of June. The airports are also all slowly going back to normal. Milan and Rome are fully operational
     
  9. Will prob pop down to say hello and sit on grass with a coffee
     
  10. Sweeeeeeet set of wheels. Welcome.

  11. Hey Matteo, Nice Bike... could I ask what you have used to black out the radiator shield, wrap, anodised, ceramic coat ?
     
  12. Hi! I thought about doing a few different things including wrapping them but ended up having both the exhaust and the radiator shields painted from a bodyshop in the same color treatment of the standard matt black rims. I might be wrapping the radiator shields with PPF to ensure the paint chipping with stones.

    I've added this picture here so you can see what it looks like.

  13. Each to their own of course, but for me that me that is a very tasteful upgrade. The brushed aluminium finish as standard looks out of place in my humble opinion. I can only think they did it so that the wings popped in contrast against it. However now they have more of a subtle appearance whilst also looking more menacing. Very Nice !
