    Thanks for the warm welcome everyone, I'm looking forward to it arriving tomorrow. I've been after one all summer and eventually came across a low mileage 1 owner black one which looks pretty mean. I'm after a seat cowl if anyone can point me in the right direction.

    My other ride is sick in my garage with my local dealer saying there's now room till mid July. Pah Ducati.

    Welcome Gab. Another useful tip handed down in my family is don't use a knife to prize stuck crusts out of a toaster when it's plugged in.

    Hi Gab!

    See, that's what happens on here. I will spare you my top-tip.

    That's because I am only posting serious and highly useful information. :dizzy::eyes:: unamused::p
    Like: Don't blow on wasps. It makes them aggressive.

    IT IS SUNDAY! :blush::blush::blush::blush:

    Enjoy your bike! May it be a trustful companion!

    Cheers, Daniel ;)
