Great stuff !

Any quick tips or observations (or mods?) for me, given that I'm collecting mine on Saturday??

Itguy - two more sleeps!

Nothing major tip wise except to maybe get the mirrors set up the best you can. I've fiddled with mine a bit to get a better view out of them but will probably get some bar end mirrors soon to improve matters. The standard ones don't vibrate much, so that's a plus. You may find the standard ones are fine for you.

Other than that, get on it and ride!

Mirrors have never been Ducati's strong point...

I like bar end mirrors but the 12R bars are already wider than my gate!

You coming out Sunday morning for the brekkie meet? Can meet on route if you like

Hi Pedro,

Allstar, Maggsy, BlackWhite and myself are all meeting up at the Warminster Services at 9:30am. Can you make it to there?

Cheers, Baz.

If you are going from Lavington to Westbury to get to the Hilltop, aren't you a bit lost?

Normally yes, but I'm trying to encourage him to meet a group of us at Warminster first.
