848 corse se

Errm I thought I had! Maybe I didn't. Will have a look later.....

 

This is true. No it's worse, the black isn't even paint it's just raw black plastic as far as I can tell. But hey, less paint saves weight (which I'm sure is Ducati's excuse).

 

Piccies:

 

So does sneezing.

 

Crocs and bike match...:wink:

 

Its the light, they are actually Ducati Corse blue... :wink:

 

Having had two bikes with matte bodywork I can confirm its a lot bloody quicker to clean despite the 'it doesn't look quite finished' vibe.

 

I have one if you we're talking about Poole Quay, I was there last week.

 

This week or last week? I was not down last but was there yesterday....

 

I was there on the 30th. I saw one other corse se.

 

Oh hold on I was there that week as it was just after I got mine.

Is yours like ETs, ie the 2012 or like mine the 2013?

If the 2013 then yes I saw it and blooming typical that there was another there on my first trip down on it.... :biggrin:

 

2013 version. You mean yours is like mine :wink:

 

Here's mine plus the other one I mentioned.



Here's mine on its own...

 

Thats true, you got yours first!

 

Just a wee aside on the paint schemes... When I first saw the 2012 Corse model in pics I didn't like it, then it grew on me and I ordered one for March. Then they changed the paint scheme over the winter for the 2013 model. When I first saw that I didn't like it... then it grew on me and I was happy with it. Now I love it. The more I see my bike, the more I like the colours and the shape.

Funny how it grows on you.

For the record I'm not going to polish any of it, other than the end caps of the Termis. I'll keep it clean and tidy but polishing looks like it could maybe ruin it... not sure.
