Got my biking mojo back today, been unable to ride sine February, so it was lovely to be back out tutoring today, lovely weather,glorious roads and a thoroughly willing rider with me.
Another quick spin (30ish miles) on the 748R - have done 260 miles since buying in July which given it has averaged 500 miles a year in its 16 years isn't bad! Really enjoying the handling and it does take off above 6,000 revs!
After diy'ing most of the day yesterday i though we were going to be on it all weekend so as the hyper in its newly rebuilt state is simply amazing to ride i took it out for a quick lap round bristol, stopped off at argos to pick up a 4k firestick...lovely. Saw lots of hipsters today.....beard oil convention kicking off somewhere??
All them Hipsters striving to been seen as individuals and non conformity as a mantra. Shame all 10 million of them Dress the same and Look the same lol
Had an “oh sod it just do it” moment this morning. I’m 65 in January and have been talking about doing something special. Well we are now, return business class flights from Heathrow to Bologna booked and paid for, luxury NH group hotel in Florence booked and paid for and MotoGP Village tickets for Mugello booked. Also hoping to sort out a Ducati factory and museum visit for the Monday or Tuesday after the GP before flying home. Andy
Unless you are riding on the road, why!?! You can get standalone theft insurance. Even if you snapped that blade in half, best you’d get is probably not much more than a grand and the impact on your other insurances would likely outweighs that. Ride it, bin it, break it if smashed up that bad.
I want to ride it on the road for testing things like gear indicator and setting up the new rear sets, etc. Don't want to waste track time.
The first day of october and what FAB weather we are having so nelly and i popped out for dose of dopamine
Been to docs I have a virus that’s proving hard to shake off and have ulcers on my gum Guess it’s time to be kind to myself
Sold the 998 and the s1000rr today. 848 already gone. I am now no longer a Ducati owner. Just got the mv and triumph
