Hi Jerry, I am glad you have a new bike but I can't see the picture :(



I think I found it on a different post

Thanks! The panels are yer actual Ducati Monster Art panels. The bike was ordered from Ducati without any panels and the dealer (MOTORAPIDO) fitted them. Everything NEW and shiny! I'm dead chuffed with it. :biggrin:

Nice one mate (though I've got a traditionalist "red" bias)

Stuart42's bike is yellow - don't think anyone is gonna keep up with that one (mind you, put Stuart on a Raleigh Chopper and I'd probably still be eating his dust........) :chuckle:

Some would argue Yellow are faster .... but I really shoudnt bring that old chetnut up :dizzy:because we all know black and white rules the road :flag:

Really? :eyepopping:

I like that. A lot. 8)

Yellow would have been my first choice, followed by white and then red. I ended up with a dark!

Why thank you kind sir. It certainly stands out. I parked it in Lymington High St on Tuesday in the sunshine and I had one chap come up immediately to talk to me about it before I'd even got my lid off! Then someone else came up as I was about to leave to chat about it. Is that 'cos it's yellow, or a Ducati, or both maybe??? Either way they both completely ignored the two identical (I mean really identical) Fireblades parked next to me.

Soooooo glad I bought a DUCATI . :chuckle:

That red / white / black Corse 796 in Moto Rapido looks very nice - had a look at it this morning.

In fact it looked very nice, very nice indeed......... (oh dear....) :banghead:

Mustn't even go there........

I had bike envy even though i'd just rocked up on my white one to have termis fitted.

Aye - every so often you see something that justs looks "right" - I have decided not to go back there till I know it's been sold.......... (yeah, right!!)
