New Gt1000 Owner

  1. Hi,

    Decided I only needed one bike and had a clear-out but it wasn't long till this GT1000 caught my eye. At first I was a bit unsure after reading about Ethanol but glad I went ahead - really pleased so far. It is a 2008 bike and cam belts have not been done so I guess that that will be the first job.

    Paul.

  6. Thanks, she had under 5k when i picked her up. Compared to the conti road attack 2s on my Triumph they are not quite as sticky, suprised as i thought they had put Phantoms on the new Thruxton.

    Your bike looks nice, who makes the hugger you have fitted?
     
  7. No idea fitted it years ago.Well worth it in the wet.
     
  8. Nah they look a bit 'happy' compared to my cheap flat black plastic one :)
     
  9. Love that two-tone colour combo...

    I was on holiday in Paris a few years back when I saw it's twin (on French 'plates natch) parked outside a Ritzy restaurant ... wanted one baaaad then!
     
  10. No idea why Ducati don't start producing these again as I'd imagine they'd sell like hot cakes
     
  11. I'd put my name down for another one and keep the one i've got too.
     
  12. Lovely looking machines and hard to find these days. Here's mine
