Nice to her you did buy it.
Take it from me...
That bike is a great bike!! I managed to steal it for a night last week, Its an absolute weapon on the Piekok Hill!!
Thing feels like its on rails! (as Ducatis do!)
It will wheelie with a little clutch, not too easy though.
Make sure you clean it heaps, or I'll tell its old owner on you!!
You dont want that now, do you??
Take care.

Congratulations, Her B4! Very nice bike!

Reminds me of that clip that was doing the rounds (I've probably still got it on my home PC). Some Murkn dude proudly filming his brand new yellow Ducati (I think it was a 998??), and the guy riding it (his son? a friend?) stalls it just as it comes out of the gargre, then drops it on the deck. The cameraman can be heard going, "No! Oh no!! Oh No!!!!", and practically crying as he drops the camera to go and attend to his 'baby'.

Welcome to a very exclusive club!!
I thought those things only happened to me!
Dropped a then new K100RS on the pavement outside the bike shop in front of about 10 people.
My words at the time were " I would like that indicator repaired before I pick it up next week"
And I was only tyre kicking !

I will get some Tshirts printed up next week

**2_SL0** · 8th November 2004, 19:30

THats a tidy looking bike.

Yeah, Storm and I saw a guy drop a bike right outside phil turnbulls last year. Poor guy that must be really embarrasing, can't remember what the bike was but it was nice and shiny, fortuneatly I don't think it did much damage, just his pride.
