  1. Hi there,

    Just thought I'd introduce myself as I've just joined the forum.
    I've just purchased an 899 which is being delivered later today (very excited). I'm not new to Ducati as I also have a Monster, she's an oldie but I love her.
    I look forward to having a look around the forum and contributing if I can.

  14. Rob, you got a tail tidy? If not go for the Bruudt. Great fit, finish and design.

  15. do you know who does the tail tidy's you see on a lot of the american bikes where the plate hangs further back so to speak? they look like theyre a lot further back under the seat unit and less obtrusive?
     
  16. Don't Know Red. Got a feeling you might get pulled with one of those though.

  17. lol that was going to be my next question
     
  18. rrrrr.png Red, mine with the Bruudt and a 7x5 plate. Just about the smallest I think you can go without bother. Also remember most MOT stations wont pass a bike with plate all on 1 line like a car.
