  1. Yes. But I think Aircon's post:
    @@Speed_Triple you need to correct your salutation before you bang on any further. Was a bit below the, ahem, belt. I was a cunninglinguist even as a young man - probably even more so:):Wtf::Wtf:
     
  2. Speed triple, I regularly ride with older guys than me (I am 49). A good friend bought a multi this year, at the age of 75. It's his first ducati, and only started riding after he retired. He bought a gs lc last year thinking the multi would be too much for him. He was under whelmed with its performance, especially when out with a bunch of us on multis, so gave in and bought one. He loves it.

    I can't pretend to be a linguist, cunning or othrrwise, but it's fun watching you guys commenting on the finer points ;)
     
  3. OK you can take a horse to water, but sometimes you are better off just drowning it (my version of the famous saying).
    @Speed_Triple perhaps your salutation would have more meaning, as I believe you intended, if it said.
    You're never too old to buy a Ducati

    It's hilarious to see your comments on grammar with this salutation under every post.

  4. Don't include me john. I'm a simple thick sec school educated council house boy.
     
  5. Depends how you measure thickness bradder ;)
    If we are talking trouser size then I am thick too :)

    I know some very well educated people who have no common sense at all (and not much of a sense of humour either, so they don't realise when others take the piss).
    That's the thing about riding, you get to meet all shapes, sizes, ages, occupations, and can generally have the piss taken out of you by all of them, to at least I seem to anyway :p

  7. Just a typo, like your: It's is hilarious to see YOU comments on grammar with this under every post - instead of YOUR comments. Typos are bad but do not mean that one doesn't have a grasp of grammar. I'm sure YOU grammar is fine!!

  8. OK. Drown the horse....
     
  9. Ditto: your, IT'S IT IS HILARIOUS typo - in the same post. We all do it. I blame touchscreens.
     
  10. Then wind yer neck in, mofo, and watch Jungle ;)
     
  11. Oh chav invective ... charming! And I thought Ducatis were classy bikes with classy owners. Still you live and learn.

  12. Class is as you behave, not as you are.

  14. What do you reckon they'll do then, as they havent won PP and probably wont again? Seems a shame to end the line...maybe a titanium one ala Diavel?

  15. Thats fine for the 500 people who can afford a titanium but not for the rest of us, eh
     
  16. Is that much different to the PP? I'm talking concept of a tricked up factory bike here, isnt that what the whole thread was about?!
     
  17. I don't take lessons in manners from someone who calls a fellow Ducati owner - or anyone really - a mofo. Sorry.
     
  18. My mistake, I thought you had a Suzuki
     
  19. I just really liked the look of the PP. It would be a shame if the lineage dies with this year's model. Just have to judge any replacement special on its price, spec and looks in the usual way I guess.

  20. One of the few marques I've never owned, strangely enough.
