Hello, I'm Dougie from perthshire in sunny Scotland. Don't have a ducati at the moment but I am thinking of getting a monster. Hopefully find the pros and cons on here! Currently I have a aprilia rsv mille and a ninja zx9r.
Welcome. Perthshire and the surrounding areas+motorcycle=. No time2stop&look4bins whilst winding yr way around them twisty roads. Whichever bike u choose....enjoy the riding and camaraderie is all I can say. Enjoy the maintenance too, if that's your bag, baby.
Alreeet Neebur! Well that's what they say up in them parts I believe. Lots of helpful advice on here, you've also got the Scottish Ducati Club and Ducati UpNorth who also have an active FB page that should be good to locate local Ducati enthusiasts. The only issue (if you think it's an issue) is there's only one dealer in Scotland - Ducati Glasgow, but there are a few indy's for servicing etc, like Eddie at ERS... but again you'll get more/better info on them from others on here or the sites/pages I've mentioned. Cracking bit of the world, I go up a bit to visit my best man and his family near Leven.
Cheers for the welcome everybody. I stay in crieff on the a85. Some great roads about here straight out to the green welly in Tyndrum or the sma glen over to Dunkeld is also decent. Like to do most servicing and that myself so not to bothered about Glasgow having the only dealership. I've seen a ducati monster 1100s I quite like the look of but checking specs it's only 95bhp, anybody got any feed black on them? Good bikes any common problems??
