Buongiorno Ducatisti

Hi fellow Ducati owners.
It's my first time on a forum, but lots of you will know me.
It's Tony from SMC Bikes (Sheffield), formerly of Italia Moto, Lincoln. Not just a "Ducati salesman", but a passionate long-term owner and fan. Huge Valentino Rossi and Frankie Chili fan, and I go to see Frankie and his family at his beach every year.
Look forward to mmeting up with lots of you all over again!

Ciao for now,

Antonino.

 

Hi chaps. Cheers for all your comments. Happy to be here and you're making me feel very welcome. Especially grateful to Rushjob for pointing me in the direction of the site. That was reference to our Frankie at SMC. Yes chaps, she's lovely and a wonderful asset. I'm a married old git with loads of bin lids. She's the daughter of da boss, so you're all going to have to behave now.
I'll get on as and when I can, but work commitments, millions of kids, riding the SS, watching the racing, a mad lurcher (called Brembo) all eat into my precious time.
Rode the Panigale for the first time last Sunday.....absolutely wonderful and a doodle to ride, will do a write-up as and when time allows, if you're interested chaps. All I'd say in the meantime folks is, if you're even a teeny bit tempted to get one bought, you're going to have to be really, really quick. You won't be disappointed! I want one of my own so bad it hurts.

 

Yip, 'twas a toughie deciding between Desmo & Brembo. I've also got a daughter called Monza and another called Frankie (after the great man), so I think you'll see a trend developing here.
This weather's doing my head in....the SS needs to get out and attack a few apexes........

 

Sorry, chaps. I've been absent from the forum for far too long. Silly busy at work and hectic home schedule. Hope to be spending lots more time on here now, with the crap weather on its way......

 

Cheers matey. Hoping to spend more time on here now, work and family commitments allowing!!
I'm going to have to move this 899 away from my desk....very distracting!!
