If it makes you feel young then go for it..... and dont forget that mini skirt and stilettos for evening wear Who was it with that song - Oldest swinger in town? If we are lucky, we will all get old. Trying to look young while doing so doesn't really work. We dont have to give up and die, there is lots of fun still to be had and silly things can still be done ....but is this really a cool look? I mean is it ?? ... and I am not a whole lot better I should add
Who gives a shit if this is a good look ,i don't dress so i look cool when i get to my destination ,and when you pass others with your ass on fire who knows how old you are ?Are you saying older racers should retire because they look shit in the pits ?
Reading lots of the posts here concerning the Panigale R, a question for you. If I go ahead with this, what should come with the R? I understand it should have: 2 keys Mirror blanks USB map key Plus service books and other paperwork. as my last two insurance changes have required a Tracker of sorts, would most Rs have had one fitted?
It came with mirror blanks and skyrich lithium battery charger, owners handbook and service book. Some had the Ducati DDA data analyser iirc, but this was an accessory. 2 keys but again a tracker was an option those days, not standard.
Grow up dude. What's this shit all about? "when you pass others with your ass on fire" Maybe a track would suit your ego and undoubted skillset better yeah ... Remember, if you cant look good - wear a big hat Have a good day BTW - it was Fred Wedlock with that song ...
OK. Moving forward, I’m nearly at the “signing stage”, and looking at insurance changes. Currently on a multi-bike policy (MV F4 750) with MCN Insurance which expires soon. Only quote so far is from MCE around £225 fully comp. Anyone have ideas ? Or comment on MCE?
i always just stick it in a couple of the comparison sites and see what they come up with. change every year and have found separate policies for bikes works best. strange really when have all family cars on a multi policy
Three comparison sites have only turned up MCE! Despite many years’ NCD and Tracker fitted, in “safe postcode”...
Same with my 1299, they were considerably cheaper. Thats sounds cheap when you punk you're buying a 20k bike
Check out the feedback before you commit to MCE or any large insurer. They are not always as good at paying out or sorting issues and changes as they are at grabbing your initial premiums https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.mceinsurance.com https://www.reviews.co.uk/company-reviews/store/gc-mceinsurance Cheapest quotes are rarely the best option if it goes wrong.
Imho all are good and bad. Someone doesn’t stay in business 39 plus years unless they get it right more often than not. Carole Nash used to be a dream to deal with, as did Hastings, and internet suggests they are both shite now. Whoever you go with, expect a row when/if you claim make sure you declare what you need to declare, this goes a long way towards smooth claims process
The only way to really judge an insurer is how they are when it’s time to claim. I was insured with MCE on my old commuter, got knocked off by some dopey kid in a big car and MCE were horrific! More interested in how long they could get me to keep hold of the loan bike than anything else. Good luck with the new bike mate
