Hello......first Timer From Hertfordshire

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by Mind the gap, Sep 26, 2016.

  1. Recently pulled the trigger on my first Ducati.....a nearly new Multistrada DVT 1200s.

    I thought either go big or go home.

    Like many others have experienced before me, the spending doesn't stop there.

    Great website, so much to read and learn, glad to be a part of.

    Regards,

    Steve.
     
  2. Welcome Dave
     
  3. welcome Steve. Nice choice but..... IT BETTER BE RED!!! ;);)

    Used to live in Herts. Lovely roads around there. Enjoy the Multi.

    Hello and welcome into the mad house

    Pics of bins and bikes are the law here :Oldman:
     
  5. They don’t have bins in Hertfordshire, they have refuse disposal caskets. Theyre posh like that you see. :grinning:

    Welcome along Steve. :thumbsup:

  7. Welcome Steve, where in Herts are you? I'm St Albans way and am the president of a bike gang if you fancy joining? I am currently the only member though, the meet ups are a bit shit if I'm honest.

  8. yes we do, i've got 4 bins myself!

    (hi)
     
  9. Not Stevenage Steve surely
     
  10. I am oh so hoping your name is Gary
     
  11. Helooooo from another DVT convert
     
  12. Thanks all for the welcome, much appreciated.

    I live in Watford and like a lot of people I lookout onto a garden full of bins!

    I'm afraid to say it's a white DVT. Not my first choice but the overall deal swayed me to sign on the dotted line. No regrets.

    After much research here and elsewhere, I've decided to order the urban accessory package today......torn between spoiling the look and increasing the convenience.

    Also this evening I fitted a dashboard screen protector, again after reading the opinions and recommendations here.....went better than hoped.

    Ended today applying penetrating oil on my r/h mirror as the hex bolt is sooooo tight......hopefully not cross threaded as I've got ugly elbows!

    Thanks again,

    Steve.
     
  13. Not Stevenage Steve then ! I used to live in Ricky :)
     
  14. Hello from Berko.
     
  15. hello from the chalfonts...
     
  16. Welcome, images?
     
  17. Hello again.

    Hopefully I've managed to include a photo.

    The bike had just over 600 miles and came with the touring package as well as an end can, r&g crash bungs, rad guard and tank bag.

    All the extras appealed to me which helped make the decision to buy.

    Now looking at alternative screens to help with the wind blast.

    Steve.
