UKMOC is - of course - the very best forum for all things Monstrous - but I also have another ("grown-up") Ducati and the Ducatisti site was brilliant for that. Does anyone know more than the bare announcement that it's temporarily offline?

(I've seen the hilarious Adolf video and nearly expired from laughing so much!)

It's been gone for 2 months now, I doubt it will return.

Looks like it's a gonner which is a shame as it didn't have to be, and it was a good site.

many have jumped onto here (http://www.italiansportingclub.co.uk/)

not quite as vibrant or stocked full of good info but a few good people and more posts and it might be a good substitute

I find Ducati.ms pretty good, not sure if they do secret Santa.

That's a pity as that's all I really want from a Ducati forum.

Not sure about that site it has "aviation" is that for plane spotting seeing as trainspotting is now so last week!

And "show us your" with photos and Videos under the "show us yours" is rather scary :)

but Glips I sent you your secret santa..
It was a Rizoma gentlemans bits scratcher .... If the postman nicked that I shall be most vexed!!

The word is that it will be come back shortly. No doubt Dan will explain it all when it does, but the reason for it having been offline this long is nothing sinister but very mundane.

I was a good girl and did send my secret Santa!!!

If I was very rich I would buy and post random people pressies:)

It's ok gilps it was the special one off clown edition.

Big thumbs up anyway to the Gecko!!
Someone I know did me a secret santa this year and it was one of the best Christmas pressies I've had in years and it impressed me!

I hope you are right Paivi, I sort of miss it and enjoyed the ride down to Haldon hill for the Breakfast meets.

It will be good to see it back.........I think. As with many forums some very useful stuff on there but unfortunately some unpleasant characters on there too and too much bad mouthing of dealers for my liking, not sure they'll be pleased to see it back ?

We are quite lucky on here it's where the nice people come out to play :)

Right well one way or another users are lost.

I did miss it but not anymore I am past withdrowal phase and now on acceptance so not care.

The bad mouthing of dealers well I see it from the opposite point of view to you. They actually did not allow to bad mouth dealers even if they bluntly deserved it. Bad service should be punished like good one rewarded.

Odd that it was very hard to find bad service example all together, or if there was one left unfixed from MR or JHP and more while you could find some others. Clearly people had reasons.

I remember a ride out with ducatisti in 07, Market Harborough - Melton Mowbray run with a stop off at Rutland Water, it was a great day out. I hope ducatisti comes back too, it was a good forum.

Being bigger does not always mean something is better ;)

If you own a monster THIS is the site to belong to.
Ducatisti was bigger as it attracted tossers.

Ducatisti was good for random Ducati stuff and talking SBK/MotoGP (Although the Stoner/Rossi thing went on a bit!) but I think because it's been offline for so long it won't be the same again. Most would have found somewhere else

Yes I am good, fed up with the cold weather, I won't go out on the bike if it is below about 5 degrees C, therefore I have high hopes for this weekend. I need to get back on the bike, hubby thinks I am mad going out just to say hello to Monster.
