Hello there, I see there are a few of you not far away. I am rebuilding a 748 there and am hoping to get it sorted out for summer. thought you might like to see a few pics of my shed, I hope they work!! Looks like a good little forum here, would be nice to make a few friends. Billy.
welcome to the forum, ex southampton boy, but long time gone now, quite a few round your way, look like you have more than a few projects on the way, again welcome, kev
Welcome! I'm from South Winchester otherwise known as Eastleigh ;-)....hopefully she'll be up and running soon.
Welcome to the forum, I'm not too for away either in Bournemouth. Would love to see the classics at our shop sometime?
Thanks everyone, it would be nice to see you some of you away from this forum. Yes, there are a few projects in there but everything actually goes! The 748 is just having its shock serviced then I need an air filter some new dzus clips and a fiddly little things like that but it seems to go well. I have had it almost three years and done 33 miles on it, thats almost a mile a month! To be fair, it did need a lot of work, The motor had a bad rattle but has happily received new crank bearings and all that. The old silver 450 goes well and can be viewed on youtube Billy Knight's 1974 Ducati 450.wmv - YouTube I dont know if anyone is interested in old cars but I fiddling about with a lovely old 1961 Auto Union DKW as well. Three cylinder 1000cc two stroke, ding da ding ding etc It is very weird. thanks again for the welcome.
Wow haven't seen one of those for years!!!!! You certainly have some interesting projects in that shed.
Hello and welcome. It's great to see somebody taking care of the older stuff. I hope you enjoy the forum
Hi Billy, I'm new to the site as well. Live in Port Solent in Portsmouth so not far. Like your projects. I've just bought a 1999 996.
Thanks everyone for the welcome and good wishes. You have good taste there Mr Desmo! I knew John but that was along time ago, and I shouldn't name drop, but thanks. It looks like there are quite a few of us around the area. I'd like to meet up, maybe arrange for a Sunday lunch somewhere? Hen and Chicken Pub on the A31 might be a good spot? We should get together, this computer is no fun.. Billy
Welcome..Another one from up the road...bit of a intage themer going on there. You'll fit in with the Hants Ducati lt I ride with! Lol
