Hello from North Wales.

Hi all, got pointed in your direction from Pedro following a Facebook message.

I'm up on the North Wales coast and picked up my Monster 821 stripe on Sunday, it's poured down since!

I spent the last few months test riding a few bikes, started off with the 821 but didn't really get on with it. I went onto the 1200S which was a lovely bike but a little bit over my budget.

I also took out the new Supersport, nice but not a Monster.

I decided to give the 821 another go and took it out for a good half a days ride and really got on with it. While I was out a 2 year old 821 stripe had come in to the dealership as a part ex. As I have the breaking strain of a kit-Kat I bought it, saved a few quid over a new one!

I have a few mods and shiny bits I'd like to add but need to recover the bank balance after buying it first!

This is my first Ducati, it puts a right smile on your face!

Was just looking if there was anything up my way.

That's good news, I'm up for a meet if I'm home. I'll keep an eye out.
