  1. Yes, was it you that owned it.?, i'm not a member but i do look on the odd occasion what's for sale in their marketplace.
     
  2. It's not quite the same really, as i can't ride a wall tile can i.
    Speaking about ceramic tile, a couple of people i know have Brian Jones swimming pool tiles from his old property in Hartfield, Lol.

  3. No, not mine. I let my membership lapse years ago but like you do look at their marketplace page.

  4. I don't think it was listed for that long as i'd LOOK in a week odd ago, but at that price i'm not surprised it went like hot cakes.

  5. Been pondering getting a little runner for the summer.

    Does anyone know how easy/costly it is to get rid of the stooopid plate hanger on the rear wheel, for an under seat version?

  7. agree, if you're going to buy one, that does look good. Might struggle to get that front caliper off though. Also makes you wonder why it needed paint at such a low mileage but could have been paint pigmentation as it's red. I had a first gen (red) one that ended up all orange..

  8. Who knows WHY people do these things, but you could be right on the coachworks fading, as for the moveability on the front brake caliper, it does look the same space as a 748 / 998 model bike.
     
  9. I suspect Chris's comments on the front calliper relate to the condition of the fasteners!

    Presume the calliper needs to come off to remove the wheel, so as it's just had new tyres then the calliper mounting bolt(s) weren't replaced at that time, and the condition of the end of the front wheel spindle also suggests an interesting maintenance regime...

    Still a lovely looking thing though!
     
  10. The Scrambler market seems to be holding very strong residuals. I’ve seen 2016 803 Icons selling for similar money I paid in 2018. IMO opinion and I know at least one forum member will disagree (@El Toro :joy:) I found the 1100cc engine to be a disappointment and still much prefer the 803cc engine. Don't expect gobs of power and torque but keep the revs up and stir the box and you’ll find a very entertaining ride. The seat is carved from a telegraph pole and the suspension is …… basic but still a hoot. A better rear shock is definitely a good investment. Andy

  11. I thought they're a little off colour but would turn with no issues once you'd your spinach morning cocktail.
     
  12. Ducati "snob" comes to mind here Andy, remember one size doesn't fit all.
