Hello From The Iom

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by =^..^=, Aug 31, 2021.

  1. Hi guys - just signing up / in as I need to get back into the world of 900SS ownership...

    I had a 91 900SS (white frame/white wheels) and stupidly sold it as we were buying a house...

    to be honest the Ducati would have lasted longer than the Mrs did (or the subsequent missus etc)

    Just trying to sell my current big bike to raise some funds as I have my eye on a '92 (white frame / black wheels) - whilst I'd like a 91 to be honest I don't want to spend half my life cleaning the wheels...

    I know somewhere I have some photos of my previous 900 so I'll go for a look and see what I can find / scan.

    Cheers

    He's about 20 years younger than me and a million miles faster than me on a bike. I prefer my coffee though...

  9. Fastyr mie Cat with 900SS, but presumably Cat with no tail?
    If you are in the Cat With No Tail pub in Douglas next TT or MGP I will buy you a pint and talk 900SS stuff. Done about 80,000 miles on one or two 900SS over the last 27 years.
     
  10. Fastyr mie!
    If you were over in the mid 90's and went to the Italian bike owners meets I might have met you already!

    I'll hold you to a pint and a chat - hoping to have a 900ss by then - if I could just sell my freakin blackbird...

  11. My first IOM trip was TT '95 on a 1993 900SS, then 96 & 97 on a 1994 900SS. Ducati meets were at the Waterfall on Mad Sunday morning and the Shore in Old Laxey on Tuesday evening. The Italian Owners gathering was at The Crosby.
    The Cat with no Tail is in staggering distance of my TT homestay, good luck with the 900 search.

  13. Welcome along
     
  14. Good choice, welcome
     
  15. I'm trying to remember when I sold my 900SS - I think maybe late '96, I went to plenty of meets at the waterfall !
    900 search is going well, hoping to sort finances out today and get Dartanions '94 off him :)
     
  16. Few realize that a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at.
