Hello guys
My name is Kobi Liany, new member here

I'm from several thousand miles away - Israel, not far from Tel-Aviv.
just turned 35, married, father of 3.
I am a journalist for the last 14 years, editor for the largest cars & bikes website here.
Recently bought a Monster 1000S i.e 2005, my first old(er) ducati.
had a monster 796, streetfighter 848 and a diavel not as the owner but as a long term test bikes.
I'm here thanks to a member's recommendation and I have to say, i love what i see here. Hope to learn from you all.

that is my monster. nothing fancy like i see here, low mileage and so. this one had 52,000 km, it was ridden well, since here we can ride all year long. but it had a full rebuild - all and all, before i bought it. hope you like it. ohh, and it is the single M1000S i.e in Israel, so yeah, basically it is rare ;-)

It is chained at home and covered but ducatis are the least stolen bikes here. bikes are generally stolen for parts, and there are not enough old ducatis here to create a demand.

Wotcha! I'm a fellow newbie both to Monsters and this forum / UKMOC. Seems like a great place to be on all fronts

Ah, a wise man to choose one of the best engines. Well done, nice one.

Welcome! Lovely example of a lovely version of the Monster.

Possibly popping over to Israel myself later this year, so I'll have to keep my eye open for your bike.
