Hi I'm Dave and I own a 748 I have owned it for about 5 years now ut not covered a great amount of miles since it only comes out in the summer. I have a fireblade for the winter Currently having a cutting out probem and would be great to get some experiences from you fellow Ducati owners..
Hi Dave, Welcome to the forum, looks like we are from the same area, I'm around Haverhill area is that near you?
hi mate, had a cutting out issue on mine a few years back.. like it was run out of fuel. was intermittent for a few days (would cut out shortly after starting then after a few mins , start and be fine) then kinda stopped dead. turned out to be the potentiometer (not a made up word)..
Sounds tempting, nice ride that way too Sounds tempting, nice ride out towards Chelmsford from here, do you ever venture out this way around Finchingfield and alike
Hell yeah, we often do the run up through Finchingfield or through to the cafe outside Haverhill, sometimes even as far as Bury. We have a pub night on the 3rd Monday of the month to keep us going through winter as well, at the Angel pub in Chelmsford. It's a social night rather than a bike meet, so just turn up and chat bikes for an evening. Plus going to race meetings, bike shows, trackdays and that kind of thing.
That sounds like a a hell of ride! I love riding to Finchigfield but it gets very busy with traffic sometimes. Cheers for the info on the social night, might just have to pop along!
Thanks for a great welcome guys! I am near Colchester so not far from Chelmsford. Be good to meet up there I didn't know the ducati had a potentiometer, so I shall have to look into that
