M1200r new owner in Somerset

Hi
I've just bought an m1200r arriving Jan 3 2023, hoping to find other local Ducati and m1200r owners.

Happy Solstice

Stefan

Welcome.

I love my 12r.
She's called ' my ferret on acid'! It's the most fun I've ever had with me clothes on

Welcome aboard. Now that's what I call a Christmas treat (even if it doesn't actually arrive until 3rd January!).

so there's 3 of us, just like that, I knew you had a similar bike Grumpy, but didn't know you had replaced with an "R".

Enjoy Mr Wolf.

I walked into the local dealer to purchase some parts, there in the middle of the showroom was a shiney b!ask 1200r. I took one look, turned to the sales guy and said ' when can you get me one?' Picked her up 6wks later.
Love it. Soooo much fun.
