I’ve wanted a 900SS since I was 16 (when the first came out), when I thought they were the most beautiful bike ever made. I think they’re still up there. So far, I’ve had a bit of a mixed intro to Ducati ownership. I rode it home 100 miles quite happily after I bought it, and a few days later I had an amazing run out to north Wales for a few hours. 10 minutes from home, the throttle cable snapped. I’ve replaced the throttle open cable but the throttle close cable is a bit heavy so I have one of those on order now and hopefully I should be back up and running by the weekend. My daily ride is a KTM Superduke GT so the Supersport is purely for showing off on the finest days.
Nice SS. I don’t recall seeing an underslung rear caliper without a torque arm on an SS before except on an ie.
Very warm ( under seat exhaust) welcome . The bikes are different so I guess we may well be also,enjoy the ride !
