New EVO Owner

Hi gang, I have rejoined the Ducati clan having had a brief spell away playing with a Daytona 675 (900SS prior to that). Picked up an ex-demo M1100 Evo from Woods of Abergele last week and am enjoying being upright and able to see over hedgerows once again after many years of being coiled around various supersport models!

Must say big shout to Dave at Woods for the supreme Customer Service and being a generally nice guy!

Now to search for essential mods.....

cheers,
Mark

Hi from another evo owner. Did you buy the red demo they had? In which case...I've had a go on your bike!

I'm just 20mins from Chester...so let me know if you ever want to meet-up for an evo rideout in North Wales!

Hi Mark

If it was their red demo (reg ending EKC) then I also had a go on your bike.

I took it for a gentle spin down the A458 to Llanrwst and it was fantastic. Knew then that I had to have one, but bought mine from Ducati Coventry as its nearer to where I will be moving (if my gaff sells!).

Great bike mate & welcome

Everything that involves expensive add-ons or replacement parts made of carbon or exotic metals is an essential .. Enjoy

I can't say I was gentle with her...but I did not abuse her. She certainly clinched the deal over the Speed Triple she was up against - so much more character!

Yeah, give me a shout if you're ever my way, and I'll do the same.
