Hi, Just a quick hello from a newbie in Surrey. Having recently placed a deposit on a V2 Bayliss, it’s great to have come across this place which has made interesting reading all ready! Fingers crossed on receiving the bike as quoted in June!
Looking fantastic & must be a nightmare to not have taken her out yet! Can I ask when you ordered & how long it took to arrive? Also, I was watching a youtube video the other day from an 'un-crating' of a Bayliss at Chelmsford Ducati. Within the crate was a smaller box which had the pillion rear seat conversion & rear foot pegs within it. Do these come with all? Not that I will ever fit it, but good to know. (I did ask the salesman last week but he hasn't come back to me yet!)
I ordered it in July before it was officially announced and it arrived at the dealership just before Xmas so I didn’t get it until mid January when they came back after their holiday. Ref the pillion rear seat and pegs……I haven’t got any. I must ask tomorrow
Keep me posted if you don't mind as I'm interested to see what they say. Here is the video I was referring to (see from around 5:20 onwards) & having just taken another look, I came across the second video from a dealer in the states. You can see the box I'm referring to in both videos
The guy I deal with, who is also a personal friend, is presently off ill with cv19 so I called to speak with his sales colleague this morning, but he was tied up with a customer. I’ve left a message for him to call me back
Apparently a rear seat unit and pegs are part of the package. They are now trying to find mine at the dealers.
Good you found the place, sorry your bike not arrived yet, as it's Newlands Corner tomorrow at midday (could go in a car?) although can't guarantee numbers but will be there unless torrential plus around half a dozen. It's first Saturday of every month so worth putting in the diary anyway.
That’s the way to present your bike. Nice clean bins in the background, block paving. Setting the correct standards. Welcome. Hope you bikes sorted quick.

Hey @Bowjangles, I am Epsom based too and a fair weather old 888 rider. Should be nice and warm by June and happy to join you in some running-in rideouts!
