Nope. Nothing planned. Things have happened at my wife's job so she's having to work a lot of Saturdays. The kids do stuff so I've got to get them about. I just haven't got the time at the moment to get out on my own on a Saturday long enough to get to a dealer and take a bike out.

At this rate I'll end up buying blind.

I wouldn't touch that one with a barge pole. Over priced and appears not to have a Ducati service record.

The search is over.

It's pretty much stock. I'm going to get a tracker fitted to it for peace of mind. The dealer will service it for me and he's going to put a new battery on it. I'm just waiting for a call back about delivery and an invoice.

I've not ridden one, but I like triples, I love the look of MVs and I really liked the engine in the 800 Brutale I tried.

Bring on the summer.
