Hello From The Isle Of Man

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by Mark Cox, Jan 24, 2025.

  1. Hello All,
    Just a quick 'hello'; new to the forum and relatively new to Ducati life!
    I've just ordered a Hypermotard 698 to go alongside a BMW R1250 GSA and an S1000R, it seems like with this in the garage it might be everything I might want or need (but we all know the correct number of bikes is n+1 where n is the number you currently own...)!

    I did own a 748S about 20 years ago and loved the bike, despite the numb feet from the vibrations through the pegs (they all do that Sir). But no Ducati since then, but the 698 looks like such a fun bike and the roads on the Island seem like a great place to enjoy it, so I took the plunge again.

    I am sure I'll have questions once it arrives, but for now 'hello'.
