New member from the Netherlands since a few days. Large Ducati community in GB, lots of nice-special bikes, that´s why I´m entering this forum. I´ve also got the idea that there many specialist suppliers in the UK, so the forum could be useful. I´m driving a 748 for 12 years now, before that 900SS, but that one is gone since a few years. Not making many miles on the 748, for everyday use there is a MTS1000DS. Because it´s a (future) classic there is also an 888 Strada. Btw, all original parts are still withe the 748, so it could be brought back to original. Besides the colour of the wheels and the Termi´s the 888 is and will stay original, the MTS has a complete 50 mm SilMotor system and DP luggage system. Hope to learn some things here!! Gr., Bert
