First Ducati, First Post

  1. Good evening all,

    Last week I took delivery of what I can only describe as my dream bike a 2003 Yellow 749S Mono. Appreciate the 749/999 generation weren’t to everyone’s design taste but I have always liked them and finally got to a position where I could afford it.

    I spent a while searching about until I came across this one, it’s got 8000 miles on it, has just had the belts serviced and came complete with all service books, keys etc.

    I bought it from Leeds but live in Aberdeen so had to have it couriered up North. It’s currently moved a total distance of driveway to garage but it’s being stored in a “bike bubble” as condensation at this time of year is nightmare.

    Looking forward to sharing some photos…when I can work out how…

    Cheers,

    Cammy

  2. Congratulations Cammy! I was toying with the idea of a 749 myself but opted for more of a project as a first Ducati. As a newbie myself I can tell you I used the 'Upload a File' button when posting a reply to my own thread. I think that's better than providing a link to an image as it won't be lost in future as externally linked images might.
