Hi and thanks for adding me to the forum. I was a confirmed Honda rider until being given a Multistrada while my bike was in for a service and wow ! I didn't have the budget for the DVT model but have managed to find a low mileage older model, after a test ride and paid deposit I pick it up Tuesday. This weekend will be the longest on record for me, roll on Tuesday.
Welcome BigPlanetSmallWorld and you’ll be exploring a lot of it now you have an MTS. There’s also a wealth of information on here; about everything.
Welcome, now you will know the truth about Ducati reliability (it's much better than Honda riders would have you believe )
Well enjoy the waiting.... Which year / model did you buy ? Ive also recently moved from Honda to my first Ducati and I have to say... its been so much more fun.... I probably should have done this years ago. This forum has some really nice helpful and friendly people hanging around, so if you have questions many can help. Welcome Carl Don't forget.... post pictures once your new beauty has arrived
Thanks for the warm welcome. I have gone for a 2011 plate 1200S the clincher was it only has 8,500 miles on it that's less than half what I have put on the Honda in 3 years. I have found a local mechanic who race's Ducati's and he is going to give it a once over so I can get the shop to do anything that needs doing in the warranty period. After that I'll get the belts done for safety sake and I reckon I've hopefully got a year's biking before the 15,000 mile service which I believe is a big one.
While we are waiting for pics of said bike pics of your bins please newbie we like them Welcome into our mad house
