New bike arrived today After a 70/80 mile ride I love it. Needs adapting to definitely though There are quite a few differences to the Street Triple but for me the one that was the biggest is that the Ducati is very planted and as such needs more input to turn, especially at slow speeds (as I found to my embarrassment at a mini roundabout ) The riding position is also more aggressive, felt strange at first but I soon settled in. Weird thing is you can see the front wheel :lol: In regards to riding a thousand (this is my first 1k) like everyone said it's pretty tame....until you open it up 8O You can pretty much use any gear you want for any speed, as long as you are above 3k revs it's damn smooth and power is instant. My favorite thing is cruising along then opening it up to hear it snarl (sounds fairly good with stock cans). Brakes are awesome, lots of feel and have a very sharp bite to them so you have to be weary of that. However my rear brake doesn't work for shit! Couldn't even hold me on a very slight hill so I'll have to get the dealer to sort that So first impressions are good and will hopefully get better! Mods planned are 2-1 exhaust and open clutch cover
