Life with a Ducati 1299...

Can we have some screen grabs of that thread please in the ducati forum.

 

I do have a MASSIVE issue with dealers putting ridiculous stickers on bikes though! That Moto-Rapido one needs to come off!!

 

Lol........that was the demo bike he took out, he was very impressed with the 1299 said felt more involving ride then the BM

 

That's a bit like the factory putting massive fugly shotgun cans on their sexy production bike. Oh....️

 

Was talking to a mate today and next year's nec show will be fun when all bikes have gigantic silencers for euro4

 

1 day to go?

 

23 hours

 

17 now!

 

This time tomorrow night I'll be waxing it and acfing it in the garage.

 

Tomorrow ( təˈmɒr.əʊ )
noun
- An entirely fictitious environment wherein 99% of all human productivity, motivation & achievement is stored.





....He says, pompously, whilst postulating that he's not even slightly jealous.

Noun, not adverb.

 

So, does the new beauty feel much different to the demo u have been riding around on? I assume that has 1k+ Miles on it, does yours feel tight as hell?

 

8 miles on her so far but she feels poised, ready to unleash her fury.

Quickshifter and blipper work fine from the off too. Smooth as a smoothie.

She hasn't dissolved in the damp and salt either yet.

 

Photos? ☺

 

Just having a beer then getting the big boy camera out to do some.

 

I should point out that just when you think you've seen/heard/felt it all panigale wise... Akropovic create the most beautiful symphony you could imagine.

Imagine the Ducati rumble. Then imagine the Ducati bark. Now you know that bit in Lord of the rings when Gandalf shouts "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" that's the tone they emit. Like a thousand Gandalfs in an underground mine repeating that.

Beautiful.

 

Agreed. After hearing one with an Akra at the track the other week, the noise is gobsmacking.

 

Spent the evening looking at her and taking photos.

 

Is it the trailer to your new porn release?

 

Great shots, it's almost like u do this media stuff for a living! ;-) glad you are smitten with it!

 

Please tell me that white screen in front of the bike is where your copy of motogp/road rash game is projected, the controls linked up to those of the duke (including some sort of lean) - I could do with one of those set ups to get through this wet and miserable winter!

Seriously, corking pics and one cracking looking bike I'm sure we'd all love to have in our own garages. Bet you felt rather special firing her up and riding her home yesterday!
