I went for the launch part tonight, New Zealand has had to wait for a while!

But wow, I see what you guys are talking about. It's so much better than in the photos. Mine arrives in 1 week, I will have one of the first two in my city

I sold my 2005 749 today, good timing as my 1199 arrives in 2-3 days.
But I was actually sad seeing it go, was like loosing a girlfriend

Oh well the 1199 is the newer younger girlfriend, at least the 749 did see her.

Oh Happy day !
My tri has arrived in Christchurch after a 6 month wait, unfortunately I am out town at present ! Oh the luck !

Another S arrived the same time, and further Tri is on the way apparently so that makes 3 for Christchurch. Best as I can tell there are 2-3 on the road in Wellington with maybe that many still on order and Auckland has about 5 on the road with that many to come.

How about a NZ Panigale rally late summer once a few more orders have dropped ?

Mine still in store, misses says I can bring it home when I cleared out enough other m/cs of the garage that she can get her car back in! And the new pony of course !

A worthy challenge indeed !

Hi Pouaki,

The 2nd Tri for Chch is mine, just traded 1098 Tri that Casbolts have on the floor now. Looks like another 7-10 days wait.....

Wow, very close now !

I am much more excited now I know it's sitting there waiting for me and Craig has sent me photos of 'MY' tri sitting in the crate!!!

Perhaps we can pick'em up at the same time ? maybe even the with 'S' guy as well? I think that would be quite fun to see 3 in the flesh on the floor, pop some bubbles then ease them up over Dyers pass ?
hehe

Gime a call/txt (conact PMed) when yours arrives....

And 'S' guy if you're out there let us know to huh?

Swung past Casbolts today and I have to say your 1098 tri is a sweet looker! I saw one in there when I order my tri and although I had lusted after one for many years I thought it was beginning look a bit dated next to the Pani, but if I was buying today on looks alone at 1/2 the price of the Pani I'd go for your 1098!

Looks like they haven't wetted mine up yet, but I might have to make some excuse to pop in and see it in the box !! Hard to stay away !

Yes, I was unsure about selling the 1098 Tri as I really love that bike and it also won Top Superbike (848/1098/1198) at the National Ducati Rally in Hamner Springs earlier this year, but the opportunity was there to get the Panigale Tri so decided to jump.....hopefully this was a good decision.
