  1. All packed up (not that you can pack much in the MTS panniers) on ferry to Bilbao then 2 weeks in Spain taking in Madrid, Segovia, Salamanca and a few other places. First big trip on the MTS so hoping it covers itself in glory, took it to France last year for a few days and developed the DTC fault so hoping this will be more successful :)

    Take it easy my friend, looking forward to catching-up with you again in Yorkshire in October, when no doubt we'll all hear about your Spanish exploits.:Wtf:
    Keep it on the rubber and don't get too much of a liking for the Spanish cakes :Vomit:

  19. Just done the c601 from Sergovia to "Puerto de navacerrada" epic road up in the mountains but with all the luggage and the wife on the back I found the suspension bottoming out at times, standard spring, ohlins SCU fitted (settings at 1) and set at 2up with luggage sports mode (pre-load set to 16) Think I might need to upgrade spring (and lose weight not that this is going to happen with the Spanish food in this region) wife is 8.5 st but I,m no light weight, what spring rating upgrade can I get from Ducati?
