Picked up my bike from the dealer today a few months earlier than planned...
Compared to my 1098r it's easier to ride especially lower in the rev range and turns in quicker.
Rain held off late in the afternoon allowing me to put the first 100miles on it.
Absolutely love it:D

That`s a Ducatisti forum modification!!!!!!!!!! Sorry, UK forum joke.:cool:
It`s just the road fund license for the year. A stealth tax by the UK tax man. :eek:
 
Is there anything showing that the full system fattens up the low/midrange over slip ons?

BEAUTIFUL bike sir! After seeing the Tricolore, the red is just boring to me. I have a demo ride set up and if I like it (and fit, I'm 6'6"), it'll be a Tri for me!
 
best looking one, most mods yet...Damn thats a lot of $$$$$ ;)

dont let cobwebs take it over, ride tha damn thing
 
Looks amazing man!! Congrats!! Is the triangle piece on the CF Swingarm cover an elevated sliding protector of some sort?
 
Beautiful..!

If i'd had that disposable I would have gone for the Tri.

I love mine to bits but for a standard colour scheme it has to be the best on any bike.

Choice, quality add ons too.

A stunner!

Well done....

Love it love it love it.

Hey deano - can you list all the extras you opted for and maybe just a one word comment on whether each was worth it ? Maybe Xbox and others can do the same. Yours is a particularly good example (being a Tricolore that i've ordered) with your pics showing stuff like the seat and having a full system. Or is that all you opted for.

Oh yes, and again .... BEAUTIFUL.

Looking forward to getting more miles on the bike so I can go above the 6k rev limit.
Really want to open it up to compare it against the 1098r.
Seems more civilised and smooth.
Still easy to ride at lower revs.
The quick shifter is excellent.

Let me know how it compares.
I was told by a guy who got to ride both bikes on the race track that there is no comparison....:eek:
