  1. Decided to get back into biking after 7 to 8 years off. Always wanted a ducati so went ahead with getting a 899 Panigale, in red of course! IMG-20251020-WA0004.jpg

  9. Welcome and enjoy
     
  10. Thanks for the reply
    May have some potentialy daft questions but......
    Is the turnover on start up of the v2 engine relativly slow? Having only had inline 4 or triple before cranking seems slow. Appriciate as anew bike thats maybe been sat in a showroom fot a few months the battery might need a good charge or replacement
     
  11. id say yes they are a bit slower, defo give it a charge as mine went flat last week and started playing up saying it was in gear when actually in neutral. once charged it was fine but noticed the voltage dropping when idling sp ive bought a new battery and optimate just to be sure.
