I am 86.Perhaps the oldest on the site.[/QUOTE] I would love to know the age spread. Any one older than myself makes me feel better. I am but a mere youth.
I've just spoken with them and it's two / three problems, pressure switch, carbon build up and quite possibly a small wiring harness might need changing with the switch.
Young or old like me keep riding guys it keeps you happy.I intend to keep going for a while yet God willing.
We did the numbers on the repair and i can live with it.....i just might just have to cut back on the booze for a few weeks.
Anyway the 998 passed it's Mot with James at JB motorcycles with flying colours today, also i've given the yellow one a 6 week sabbatical in exchange with the silver machine that's only been used on three trips this year.
Having struggled for 90 mins this morning trying to fit the straps for my Kreiga luggage I eventually got it sorted. Then I lubed the chain and decided that the rear tyre probably would only last another 500 to 1000 miles and I need it to do 2000 miles in the next fortnight So I then spent another hour (plus) on the phone trying to source a rear tyre locally but to no avail. Quick call, as a last resort, to Ducati Manchester and I’m getting one fitted Thursday morning

Plant your crops well & hopefully when it comes to harvest time your efforts will be rewarded handsomely.
First time as a pillion for the mrs today, she did great! Treated her to an ice cream on the way home!
