Ducati Monster description

Bought this bike new in summer 2010. This is the S model with upgraded engine, suspension and brakes. I would describe it as being in essentially perfect condition. To my knowledge there are no scratches or blemishes of any significance. It has so few miles that it is barely broken in. Absolutely never dropped, never ridden by anyone besides its middle aged owner. Honestly it has never even been clicked into sixth gear because 1 would have to be going around 120 to be looking for top gear on this bike. I haven't been 120 on a bike in quite a while. Was serviced around 600 mis per suggested maintenance schedule. Totally stock other than Vance & Hines mufflers as shown in photo. I do have the original cans as well. I am a very experienced bike owner and I have had some powerful bikes in my time... VMax, K1200 BMW, etc. This bike would go by any of them like they were chained to a tree. This thing is just plain nuts. Look up the power to weight ratio on this model... there are very few bikes in this price category that could touch it. While I appreciate that kind of performance it simply isn't my type of bike anymore. I'm too old and too fat to have the front wheel coming off the ground all the time. I currently have several bikes and it is just time cash 1 in... rode this bike less than 300mis this year which is pretty silly. If you are serious about purchasing I will be happy to email you a short video clip of the bike starting and running. Buyer will be responsible for shipping. There are several good bike shipping outfits in the US, I have pre-owned a few myself. haulbikes.com is 1 I would highly recommend.

Anti clockwise Knockhill and riding in the North East with GP winners.

Wed, 06 Jun 2012

I was both nervous and excited for my first ever reverse direction track day last week at Knockhill. From rushing downhill into the left hand off camber hairpin to sweeping up onto the start/finish, nothing bears any resemblance to riding round clockwise. I actually raced my 350LC in the opposite direction in 1982 but it still took a few laps to get my head round what essentially is a brand new track for Scotland.

Man stuff: Ducati Zippo

Wed, 18 Jul 2012

I don't smoke, so my excuses for buying this are very limited - but that doesn't stop me wanting it. It's a Ducati Zippo from 1982, not that Zippo technology has changed much in the last two decades but the price of this one has. If it was a tenth of its £170 asking price, I might have bought it.

Ducati: World’s Fastest Spider?

Tue, 25 Jun 2013

According to a report in The Vancouver Sun, a fast little spider was recently discovered in the high-elevation Flathead Valley of southeastern British Columbia. Measuring only three millimeters in length, the Apostenus ducati is so small and fast it is nearly impossible to catch, says Robb Bennett, the Royal B.C. research associate responsible for helping name the arachnid.
