  1. Congrats on the new bike. I remember the feeling when I picked up my 1098s. Its a great great bike, Im 6,3 and not find it uncomfortable at all, but then again I ride a Zx7R into central London daily so maybe my body is now curved the right way :biggrin: See you out on the road :upyeah:
     
  2. Nice one Stu, you won't be disappointed i know. Bought my 1098s off of Barry from DucWolves (it was his own bike) 2 years ago and love it to bits.
    The stock 1098s has black wheels, have yours been painted or changed ?
     
  3. Yeah I spoke to Barry at great length on Friday, he told me the guy who owned it before had them painted by Ducati Wolves, still not sure which I prefer to be honest, standard black or gold.

  4. bloody 848 ...pah !!!! crap,i wanna ten!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
     
  5. Gold does look nice..................................but i do think that black sits better with the overall look of the bike.

    Maybe meet for a coffee at the Bridgnorth Cafe..............................................followed by a blast out lol.
     
  6. Meet and a blast sounds good, have to arrange that soon, might get a carbon belly pan at some point as well to break up the red a little, gold wheels will sit better then I think..

  10. Nice bike mate, hope you enjoy it. It would pain me to give Ducati Wolves my hard earned money, but that's a story for another day. Enjoy it mate (although you should have bought a 998:biggrin:)
     
  11. Glad to hear your enjoying my old 1098s it was a fab bike:upyeah:


     
  12. Still is a fab bike Barry. Been a few bits added since you last saw it. Rear sets, Termi slip ons and some carbon.
    Will probably be riding over to see you soon, needs belts and service in a month or two.
     
  13. Bike delayed until Saturday 1st September now :rolleyes: oh well gives me more time to get some nice shiney carbon bits to put on straight away lol.

  14. Why the delay Stu,? thought you were hoping for last saturday ie before the, no doubt, glorious bank holiday weekend ;-) not after....when its raining
     
  15. They just have a lot of service work on which I can understand but another week is no biggie really ... gives me a full months tax instead of just a week anyway lol ... :biggrin:

    Stu
     
  16. More understanding than I would be if I'd just bought a bike :cool: but it will be worth the wait...I promise :upyeah:

    Maccaa
     
  17. Yeah, the weather forecast isn't good here for the weekend, hopefully the following will be better, I've waited this long to get back on a bike another week won't hurt lol.

    Stu
     
  18. Did you get the bike STU?
