I thought my 1299S was going to be a forever bike, but I was cramping up after 1.5 hours on mine. I'd still buy another one, but only for short rides.
Main reasons are funds clearing and potentially looking at Panigale R’s as well. BigZook wanted a lower mileage model and delivered to his house. I won’t get my money till mid May so I’m a little way off purchasing… Didn’t you previously have one? You looking to get back in the market? Does look like a real nice bike and is well specc’ed. I’m sure he would share the photos he did with me. @TonyC I’m sure TonyC will pop on but this is what he sent me, I hope he doesn’t mind me sharing it: Mileage is 19,668 approximately 2,300 milesper year (192 miles per month) which is quite low in reality. The big desmo service was completed around 14,000 – 15,000 miles Radiators have been removed and cleaned, and end caps painted black Full-service history, next is due this month Full book pack and 2 keys and tools Full repaint, no decals - £1500 Full Akra Ti System £4,500 + Heat shielding applied to the underside of the fuel tank Bike Track fitted Rizoma mirrors £400 DP Fuel filler cap Smoke tint screen Carbon fibre lower panels DP Race seat DP Brake/Clutch reservoirs Evotech levers R&G Crash/sliders Rear Carbon fibre seat cowl DP rear number plate hanger DP Led indicators Carbon Fibre hugger Gold chain JTS quick change carrier Renthal Sprockets Silicone cooling hoses New rear wheel bearings Rear stand & Ducati indoor cover.
I did have a 1299S that I sold around 2 years ago. It had only done 3.5k miles when I sold it, so although this 1299 has some nice extras, I'd only consider one with well under 10k miles. Thanks for the info though.
Well, it has been worth the wait. I picked my 1299s up yesterday.Two owners on a 66-plate immaculate with full history and evo upgrade installed. It has the grand total of two thousand miles on the clock.I will pop some pics up if I can..
Nice looking bike, but after my last 1299S had done only a couple of hundred miles in the first 5 years of it's life, I do wonder if it affects them.
Very nice, I think I remember seeing the ad stating the Evo upgrade just can’t remember it exactly. Well chuffed for you? Have you ridden it yet? What you thinking? I’m still waiting for the funds to get mine but it will happen.
Cheers my friend. Cheers my friend.I have not ridden the bike ,just insured it fully comp.With the bike being immaculate I am rather reluctant to ride it and have just taxed my Gsxr and zx10r.The 1299 is going in the house .lol.However let's see how long I can resist the temptation.
