Is there going to be many coming onto the market after a year though, I reckon a big proportion are bought on the tri options finance so I would have though most people would keep them for the 3 yr term ?
It's the voice and now the Ducati shirt... :Kiss: But I'll be riding the 899 and a whole lot of other Ducs in a few days time. I'll be pre-running* the Ducati DemoDay at my local dealer with a few mates. *If this is the correct translation, I'm the dude at the back or the front in the Day-Glo vest to guide the demo-riders along.
Baron well done and welcome to the Ducati world! Enjoy your stunning new ride and the ladies you'll pull thanks to it. Now I actually expect a compilation of birds starring at you in one of your vlogs. I might catch you on that route in Buckinghamshire, take care!
Yes if it only does about 80 to the tank. Stopping every five seconds to fill up is a pain the in arse. I want to ride a bike, not hang around in petrol stations, or creep about on reserve desperately looking for one.
999 is OK. It's realistically 200km between fills (using a bit of the reserve, quite often). That's 125 miles and I can live with that. 916 was a bit better, 851 a bit better still. But then more bhp is going to mean less miles in a tank, although the tanks have probably been shrinking, along with the rest of the bike. So no need for a lardarse ZZR!
Is there any truth in using Super unleaded giving you more miles to the tank? I think ducati say to use only normal unleaded but not sure why?
I did find that on runs I'd get a few more miles out of a tank using super rather than normal. Don't know why.
