Insurance quote near on sorted. Funds in place. Tomorrow I shall be putting pen to paper on a new 1299s Any recent purchasers get any great freebies thrown in with an S
Have been speaking to Julian at Moto Rapido, he probably monitors all the forums so I will be up agains it
Julian is a great addition to the Moto Rapido family and although he doesn't have a long history with the marque he has enthusiasm ........... and a yellow 996. Depending on when you get there I might be in the workshop fondling my newly rumbled gearbox and balanced crank or upstairs having a coffee and chewing the fat with Craig and Luke. Andy
They have a very lightly used one there at the mo, would be my choice! Sod going new if u can save £3k
Some would say I live there but no, just a customer. Been using MR for a looong time. They looked after my ST4s, I had an 853 track bike they built, bought my Multistrada from them, they maintain my track bike, sold my girlfriend her Diavel and are building an 853 engine for me at the moment. Andy
How much did you get when they sold your girlfriend and her Diavel? Ducati dealers obviously branching out into new things.
Ooooh you lucky get! I'm hearing a lot of good things about the 1299S. Things like 'superleggera quick' and that was from an SL owner. There's tons of lovely stuff out there but that's the only bike that's caught my attention since the 2008 1098R. Enjoy!
Just had a moment of realisation, it a Friday and its the 13th. A great omen. I guess if anything untoward happens over the next x amount of years, it will give the missus an opportunity to say 'I told you so'. Yawn, scratch, order, wait. well not too long, I think there are 6 in stock. Yes, lucky indeed. But I have reached that time in life where the kids have left home and most of my money is mine at last, and a man has to have a hobby. Have owned 916, hypermotard, 999s ............ so I had a quick chat with Darwin and he said, Panigale 1299s. Evolution apparently
Love the Laguna Ad: "+ Free Akrapovic Exhaust Worth £2,599.20" It may cost £2599.20, but its never worth it. Surely taking the piss. JS
You'll love it Nige , fantastic bike had the best season ever this year , set the Tc and wheelie control to the right settings and it pulls darkies on demand no problem :smile::handfist:
