I would see it as marketing blurb personally. Ducati always update bikes incrementally, from year to year. For example the 996R had a 998cc engine before a 998 bike existed. Its common for features that appear on the S model to be on the base model the next year etc... ...

It must be one of the advantages of getting to fifty as my bike insurance dropped by virtually 75% this year !!

... to have it and therefore they have the right to screw you over. Oh and what is it about if you stay with the same insurance company for a second year running and they increase their premium instead of reduce it? That makes no sense surely it should go down if you stay with them for a second year. ...

I might get to try them yes. Still undecided about where to go next.

Do you think you will do it this year Duke ?

2012 Gixxer, yoshi can, 4k miles, new Metz, sounds like mine, shiiiiit it is mine, ASV levers, R&G tail tidy, R&G rad guard, Datatag, smells of Autoglym sir Kwacky of South Brum. Gonna keep it this year but if you haven't bought one by next April give me or my agent, Spudda, a shout

12 Plate, Yoshi Can, same colours as the one pictured. Recently fitted Metzeler's, low mileage

He's keeping it until at least next year now ...

... fun actually and really has opened up my eyes of exactly what the bike can do. I would give the course a 12 out of 10 looking forward to more next year [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]

Problem is I was earning more last yeara and every year before that and I could afford to keep everyone happy so wasn't an issue. this year pay has gone down because of our structure ...

Nice one Rossgo. Been a few years since I've been to Windsor but a really nice place. Remember having a nice lunch on an old train station that had been developed into a food and drink area. Nice one frank if it wasn't so far away for me ...

... I get back to france and also the street triple if I get time. I'm in no rush really as I'd like to have a new one sorted for the start of next year as this year has shaped up to be a busy one. I'm still open minded.

... They have never been the same since getting noise complaints stopping them from doing full power low level runs over the run way! Used to go every year to one of them being with air cadets was great fun, the speed was mind boggling!

I've been with orange/EE for 8 years now every time I say I'm leaving to go to another company they used to up the anty and throw in what ever you wanted...I never wanted to leave as I found their signal/ offers and customer services to ...

Is not on that they have given themselves a 10% pay rise and in the same week given public sector works a 4 year pay freeze. How out of touch with normal people is that.

Some people should not ever be allowed a driving licence. Incidents like this should mean an instant 5 year ban, they are not safe at the wheel.

Happy birthday!

Did you get a letter from HM this year?

... The last service included the belts along with new chain and sprockets with receipts for just under a thousand pounds. Mot was done in May this year so has just under ten months left before due again. I fitted new tyres just under 4 months ago so plenty of tread left as you can see from the ...
