  2. I've a red one. Collected last saturday
    Supplied Ducati Bristol
    Switched from KTM RC8R 2009

    I'm loving it so far, only put 120 miles so far:rolleyes:

    Dealer price and deals might be interesting?
    Mine will fit Termi's at first service. Going to charge me 2 hours labour:mad:
    Did fit rear cowl foc and small number plate as well.

  3. 1) Yep got my red one last month

    2) No trade in kept my 08 750 GSXR because I really like it

    Im at 182 miles so far, Termis were fitted yesterday by my dealer Ducati Glasgow and fitting was free :biggrin: It currently has rear cowl, carbon heel guards, R&G tail tidy, mini led indicators and carbon shock guard. Still to fit carbon air covers and carbon key guard that I recieved yesterday.
     
  4. Got a white one on Friday, so far only 44 miles on it :(

    Traded in a white 848 with akra's and flashed ecu with lots of carbon

    My 899 has termis, can't believe some people are being charged for fitting, it's part of the package.

    So far only put short levers on, ducati seat cowl and removed the pillion pegs
    Rad guard and tail tidy currently with the postman
     
  5. What indicators did you fit fella?
    Did you have to cut the wires and fit resistors?
     
  6. Red one here
    No trade,kept my 848 for now.
    5 miles from the pdi,to cold,wet,salty to ride ,i have a car with a heater for the winter :upyeah:

  10. Not sure what to do yet,the 848 is a track bike,it seems such a waste to keep the 899 confined to the public highway,so my plan is/was to sell the 848 get some spare fairings and use the 899 for both,only time will tell as i am quite attatched to the 848.

  16. Best of both worlds kipperfish, the Triumph is a hoot on the twisties I can keep up with most of my mates on there litre bikes, never had a sports bike before so thought I would hang onto it just in case, also wasn't sure about the v twin
     
  17. I tell you what, had I not bought the 1199 the 899 would be in my garage right now. :upyeah:
     
  18. Wish I could afford to do the same... in fact I'd love a speed triple and an 899!
    So what do you think of the 899 coming from the silky triple?
     
  19. Ive only covered 140 miles so far, weathers been terrible up here, will take a bit of getting used to power delivery is somewhat different to the triple but the main issue I'm having is the engine braking not sure if it's the V twin or the electronic EBC not had time to play with all the settings as yet
