  10. Come to think of it..
    If Mke H didn't win on a 900ss in 78 at the TT ducati would of gone bust...
    If the 851 was a total flop in racing like the Panigale in races which mean something :wink:
    We would not have 848 owners! Fantastic!

  11. They would all own CBR600's and talk about how they won the TT in 78 on a 750 four :upyeah:

  17. Funny lookin "81". Can't be many left like that though.
    Rather have mine with a few more k's on it, at least I can ride the bloody thing.

  19. I've ridden an MHR and found it somewhat underwhelming. The brakes are of an era, as is the whole bike. TBH, I've never liked the look much - always thought the 900SS was a lot more stylish.

    OK for a quick curiosity scoot, but not something I'd ever want to own.

    I will now be flamed to oblivion for this avowal. Sorry.

  20. What No insults! :wink:
    I'm just off out to give the old fellas MHR bevel a blast as he can't ride it at the mo but is on the mend.
    52,000 and still going strong :eek:
