Perhaps my entrance into the Ducati world with my 1998 ST2 is typical of my style. The ST2was never a superbike but it is without doubt the most powerful bike I have ever ridden and I think I am going to get a few years of great pleasure from it. As Ive said before, she has already cost me twice what she's worth but I care not. She is worthy of saving.
I'm so sorry Darth Vader but it's a V12. For me, the 8 series had to be the V12. The 840 is a great car but it will never be a V12
Buying my first Ducati at around 30 years ago, a 900ss. After a mixture of other Ducati models over the years I’m back where I started with a 900ss. This one needed a lot of TLC and cash. But it’s now there with quite a few parts replaced including the tank. Starts first hit and bring a smile to my face But I would consider swapping for that old red BM if you’re up for it?
What I am getting from this forum and what makes my heart grow so fond is that there are so many of us that are naive, innocent and in need of honest guidance. We pick the brains of all of the genuinely brilliant people on this site who offer their time for nothing and I have to say that I am blown away with the camaraderie.
It is. It was partly restored and painted 10 years ago. It doesn’t get used as much these days as the kids are older and I’ve 2 Ducatis but I do enjoy driving it. I’ve owned it 19 years.
