New To Ducati Ish.

  1. Hello Everyone,

    took a bit of a break from motorbiking. Previously mainly into Daytona 675s though had dabbled a bit with an 899 a long time ago.

    My Daytona has been in storage for years but can do about 150 miles before I'm maxed out on wrist pain I'm 6'2" and 100kg, but I love a 600. So thought I'd get a second bike.

    Just bought a 950 supersports as want to do some sporty touring White/Red 19 plate with Termi can. Awaiting delivery. Not ridden it but hey, all the reviews seem very positive. As long as it's more comfortable than my Daytona. :)

  4. It almost certainly will be! Mine’s like sitting in an armchair compared to the 1098!

  5. TFT Symon, as I thought I'd go all in and just buy one....as every review said how comfy it is.

    I'll move to the super sports forum once I get a photo of it....I've actually realised I missed out on purchase of someone's on here as 100% it was the one I saw advertised but was sold Saturday. Either way I think I prefer the white now.

    Does anyone know of panniers (my sportsbike alter-ego, just died a little at those words) that are after market that will fit the supersports bike. I have kriega (20L+10L+10L) and toured Spain on my Daytona (never, ever, ever again) but as I want to do a bit more touring commuting I'll give in and get panniers. But other than the official Ducati ones £1000....:( I can't find any that state 100% they'll fit the Ducati SSS. It seems that some might...but not wanting to risk a few hundred £ on something that won't fit

    Example:

    https://www.motea.com/en/set-pannie...7BTRPm79eaVn1UUngrYdihlYwxUr83LsaAlwtEALw_wcB

    Only states it'll fit multistrada when you go into detail which is a lot of money for it to not fit.
     
  6. Thought I should post a few photos. It’s like a fast arm chair. Very pleased indeed even had surprise heated grips which was a bonus at 4am and 1C on my long journey

    Had a trip to Ducati Aylesbury today….. couldn’t work out how to turn the heated grips off!
