    Littleade wasn’t gifted as a ‘wordsmith’ unfortunately. He is still learning our language and as you can tell has not been able to yet spell ‘triumph’ yet and thought it just has three letters in it b m w In time to come he will be able to do this task but what do you expect from somebody who’s still only ‘little’!?

    Oi! No need to be so size-ist! I'm little - and I'm also an Ade - but I know how to own, ride and love my Triumphs .... bloody well should do, I suppose, after over 50 years of owning and riding 'em? littleade - the original - obviously hasn't any longer quite got the sense he was, presumably, born with .... hence his misplaced allegiance to the dreaded ditchpumps.

    Each to their own and live and let live, I say. But size-ism has no place in our multicultural, politically correct and all embracing motorcycle community. :p

    And oi too!! I’m a size challenged too AND own a ditch pump! So that would make me a small ditch ‘pumper’

    No worries, Adie: @littleade is our designated piss-taker for any matters concerning size!

    Like I am the official representative piss-taker concerning all things reflecting on eastbound-invasions and all sorts of aggressive traveling ;)

    I guess, you have not been to one of the GMUs: @Dozers Dad introduced us to a game that actually did brainwash away any resilient artifacts of political correctness...
    After this, it all went further downhill with the forum members.
    Not even the fact that as a German I am lacking any kind of humor whatsoever could hinder me from enjoying this marvelous company!

    :blush:

    Au contraire, mon ami, au contraire. You clearly, self-evidently have (had?) some semblance of sense or you wouldn't be a forum member. You'd be engaged in conversations elsewhere about blue and white badges, horizontally opposed whatsits and flying bricks. Et al.

    But, no, you're here so there is hope - and, possibly, rejoicing in .......... somewhere else? :D

    Pleeeaaase Steve: Drive it first!
    I always liked the Ducs as well but after testriding a 796 Monster, I decided, they are not my piece of pie...
    The engine behaves VERY rugged on revs below 3000. You really have to like this!

    That’s nothing new then. You’d have thought they would make a town friendly bike for once.

    This said, did you try their Scrambler? I heard, the engine behaves much more civilized...!?

    There's actually a Ducati dealership in Winchester so I might arrange a test ride on both at some point.
