Introduce Yourself!

mike

Great intro Guillaume - I'll continue also: I've been loitering around these parts for some time (previously posting under the username of "hindsight"). Like many of us, I have a bit of a problem with lack of space in the garage (my wife claims it's a bike problem, but I really can't see her perspective). I have a SP5 that I've had since about 2008. I'm in Central Scotland.. where it can be challenging to find decent weather to take the nice bikes out…

Besides the SP5, I've also got a few others to keep me out of trouble - here's a few of them

Hi I am Gary, you probably worked that out. Been on Ducati Forum under the same name for quite a while, it's a great site and had lots of help renovating my 1992 900ss. I bought a 1993 851 strada (please correct me if I am wrong as pictures emerge) a few months ago which is in bits. The engine and heads are done and frame painted. I think it's a great effort the site is back up and running and feel this is hopefully the place to kick off my renovation. Its nothing special but hope to tidy it up into a respectable looking bike and put another one back on the road.

Cheers Gaz

Will post pics when I sort the file size out. What's the limit?

Could be 2MB

I've just checked, it is currently 2MB, but I think I can do something to increase that limit and then have the forum software reduce images that are unreasonably big. I'll take a look at that at some point soon.

Kev returning back to the forum thanks to the great job done by Mike. Current rides are a 1996 916SP3, owned from new, and an 888SP4. The 916 should be back on the road soon after being stood for a couple of years and having just had a minor refresh (bit of cerakote, some paint chips, replating of fastners, belts, fluids, brakes, etc.). Used to regularly commute on a MTS 1260S but that seems to spend more time parked in the garage than out these days as I no longer ride to work.

guillaume69 you asked for it!

Here is my second fav bike, Superlight.

Hi dear forum Friends

851-1990 with 71000 kms (engine never opened, no crank bearings issues).

Hoping to drive it until 99.999 or 00.000😂

For that and due to severe back pain issues, I made it more confortable with New ENOV upper bars (need a New front head fairing to sacrify) and lower home-made footrest supports. Drivebility and fun also improved for a daily use.

Only for 88/89/90 séries with M1R fork (tubes above the clamp)

Best to all

You also need to tell us what’s your SP.2 number?

#390! I also recently found some "Mickey Mouse" ears mirrors to fully restore my bike back to original.
