Personally gonna have to go and do a 180 opinion here, I think it looks fucking tasty myself, they’ve never bettered the timeless classic the 916 is, but that’s one good looking piece of machinery.
I love Ducati’s My mate lent me a 848evo for a few months and I loved it I love the look of paulo’s until I sore his side on view and it just looked to high at the arse
No bikes are perfect Bazza, if I have one minor criticism of the Panigale.....it would be that the tail unit is quite short. I dont mind the height though, height is good. Also the bike looks better side on than any other angle. Rammed up the arse or not.........it still remains the WORLDS best selling suprrbike for a reason!
Trouble is bazza you're getting old and fuddly and you're used to that saggy arsed contraption you ride Paulos still young and into perky butts
Plus @bazzashadow This is @PauloHRC now when he pulls up in front of other bikers and takes his lid off It's that Ducati feeling innit
Bit like my mates VTR when they came out, on our Euro raids, the fecking thing needed a drink every 70 miles at high speeds, soul destroying to realise blasting down the autoroute you were passing the same Brit car towing a caravan 3 times in the same day when it appeared you had gone everywhere at 150mph.
Paul bike looks amazing, personally I prefer it without the stickers so think you have done the right thing, tail tidy has improved the looks (if that was possible) and the rammed up the arse look, no issues with that
Finally got out for a ride I gingerly rode to the beach First ride out since moving to Devon and I still don”t know we’re I am going Untitled by sandman73, on Flickr
Clouds cleared midday, still chilly, but cracking 140 mile loop through Kent and Sussex on the 400, gonna pay with a stiff neck for a few days though
Nipper and I were out on Friday. Epic 300 mile trip Glossop-Settle-Hawes-Buttertubs-Kirby Stephen-Kendal-Ambleside-Harknott-Wrynose-Ulverston-Settle-Glossop
We took the dogs to Camber Sands today....loads of bikes out making me jealous Cracking weather for it, was supposed to be cold but was lovely (but cool)
Epic day out indeed!! I've been to Stans House when I was a nipper. Bloody ell I thought that was Ewen McGregor then.....not you, your son!!!
It was fecking cold hitch, parked up at Strand Quay Rye, then run back out through Camber, it was friggin freezing at 70mph, totally got sucked in by the sunny weather, and only a T shirt under me jacket, probably saw more bikes on the road than cars, really quiet out there, around 60 bikes packed in at the Quay parking area, most I’ve seen for a very long time.
Baltic up here today and had snow earlier.....but its left the normally busy Peak district roads fairly quiet for a Bank Hol so had a decent ride. Only a few bikes out compared to normal but quite a lot of those were sportsbikes
