Hi all, I bought a 900ss (1991)yesterday so thought I'd better join this forum, it needs the belts doing so I have only ridden it briefly but so far so good!, anyway Hello, cheers Mark.
I was battling with my faulty laptop trying to get the pic in place, anyway here it is so that's the first box ticked, colour, erm... red, the Dave bit?, you've got me there!
Thanks Wroughtironman, I've wanted one since I was a spotty teenager and finally got around to getting one at the age of 54, I'm looking forward to having the belts done so that I can actually get out on it!
Hi and welcome. Great bikes, Ive got the same model. I think you may have a 750 can on there. The rhs footrest hanger has been changed too. Looks like a nice bike.
It's probably a bit of a bitsa Gilps, but it looks nice and was ridiculously cheap so I had to have it, the silencer have "laser" stamped on them so I assume they are aftermarket?.
Thanks for the replies chaps, I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions going forward, in fact here's one, please could anyone recommend an independent ducati mechanic?, I want to get the belts done as soon as possible.
Took my bike to Nelly and had the 12k service, needed shims, belts, fuel filter etc , was running weak , runs spot on now and after a 50 mile ride I'm beginning to get the hang of it!, very different to the jap 4's I'm used to, very precise handling , huge engine braking etc, give me another 100 miles and I'll be getting in the swing of things, loving the bike now, also Nelly is a top bloke, thoroughly recommend taking your bike there.
Thanks for the welcome all, been all over the peaks today, need to put my wrists in ice, but hey it's worth it!
