  2. Welcome Dave

    Please put things in perspective:

    1. People only ever moan on forums
    2. Ducati's are as reliable as any other brand of motorcycle out there
    3. IMO (and I've owned most major brands over the years) Ducati quality/finish is much better than any other brand out there.
    4. It's your money. You do with it as you see fit.

    :)
     
  3. As long as it's red you wil be fine

    And welcome into the mad house :)

    Dilemmas dilemmas
     
  4. Welcome Steve, stick with the new one you've ordered, they are a great bike, but like any brand have the occasional niggles, I'm on my third Multi, no major issues, plus on the 66 plate bike, you get 2 years of very very good warranty cover, and so long as you get it serviced by Ducati, they will still help with good will gestures etc after the warranty runs out. New one every time :)
     
  5. Ditch it and get a Yamaha ;)

    Cheers

  9. Nice, I am sure you'll love it, there's a whole load of folk on here (myself included) that have the 1200S T, and you'll hear very few guys give them a kicking, they are excellent machines. As it happens, a mate of mine has just gone from a 2014 Multi over to GS, and I was out with him today, his word not mine "I think I've done the wrong thing" so I think MotoRapido will be seeing him again this year when he switches back to the Duke. He said the GS is very good, and very comfy but lacks any excitement. Anyhoo, enjoy yours Friday. Laters
