Hello From London

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by highsider, Jul 13, 2014.

  1. I don't have one yet, only a GSXR at the moment. However, I've joined the forum to learn more about the 1198 S whilst saving to buy one. Intention is for track day use only. Always been interested a Ducatis since SBK 1990 onwards - Raymond Roche, Giancarlo Falappa etc. That's going back a bit...

  7. Welcome

    1198 track bike? Hope you have deep pockets and love replacing the odd gearbox

  9. Westside - Chiswick. Stop by the Ace Cafe quite often if you're in the area.

    With regards to 1198 for track, yes they cost a bit to keep in top mechanical condition, but they punch superbly and can run with the best. GSXR reasonably cheaper to maintain. This was my old K6 - fantastic bike, great memories.

  12. I use Moto Rapido. They collect and deliver the bike back which saves me the trouble.

  14. Don't have a ducati at the moment. But if you go to the models section - you'd find loads of info.
