  1. Hi all sorry for the delay but been a busy week as you can imagine.
    So introducing myself. I'm 44 year old firefighter and I've just bought my first Ducati.
    Had all the usual superbikes over the years, R1 GSXR1000, Fireblade and my last bike was the kawaski Z800 which I had for about 6 months took it for a service and walked out with this bike.
    Although after I put new chain and sprockets on it and paid for the service.
    So not only is this the first ducati I've owner but also my first v twin but I have to say I thought my other superbikes were not only fast but awesome bikes. This thing is another level it's like a balastic missile

  17. “This thing is another level it's like a balastic missile”, yes, welcome to torque world :), they are in truth too fast for the road, too fast for me anyway, beautiful machines though, enjoy.
     
  18. Welcome to the world of the V2 Ducati I had one and yes possibly the best motorcycle I owned
