2016

These are becoming a little mini series :) Did a trip to Portimao last weekend and it's now up there with Aragon as my favourite track. The gradient changes are awesome and dont really show on the video. We had 50/50 sun and rain so it was my first track day on wets. I still can't believe how...

iEgyCHURPFs Great three days at Aragon a few days after the GP was there. Probably the best track we have been to despite the gearing being a bit out for the track.

Any thoughts on what new bikes Ducati will be presenting at Intermot next week? Here's a clip from Ducati that came linked in an email today. An SS? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Ix5--KqaeRY

Well, here we go. This morning at around 6am I started my 36mi commute from the suburbs into Washington DC. About 8 miles in, the bike went bananas. This was my first experience with a major issue on the bike (I mean, it's got 2k commuter miles on it). If you haven't experienced it...

I just traded my 2015 BMW K1300s for a new Panigale 1299s. As another poster put it, dropping off my K felt like leaving my dog at the pound. It was a great bike. I put 20K miles on it on one year. I was half way through the 3rd set of tires. But when Panigale fever gets a grip on a...

I thought it about time I put this up on here as well as the .co.uk forum which is more local for me. Picked the new R up from Snell Performance a few weeks back and did a few hundred miles dodging thunderstorms and chasing the sun. Even on the reduced revs run in procedure the engine felt...

This is a 2016 Ducati Panigale 1299 S; purchased brand new, and only selling as I have decided to move to another bike. The bike has never been raced, has 830 miles, never been down, and has no issues. It went into the dealer shop at 600 miles, for the "first 600 mile" service (I have the...

Im considering purchasing a 2016 Arai RX-7V Ducati Red Arrow helmet https://www.onyerbike.net/clothing/helmets/full-face/arai-ducati-rx_7v-red-arrow-2016-helmet-black-white-red-green The question is, is it too much Ducati if you know what I mean? Its either that, or a new Doohan rep.

Something to think about this weekend. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2015/05/22/im-a-veteran-and-i-hate-happy-memorial-day-heres-why/

Too bad it didn't bring him any extra luck: This year's Mugello helmet: AGV Pista GP Mugello 2016 - Valentino Rossi helmet

Doesn't say where he is going yet, I assume it will be to join Rossi on the Factory Yamaha Suzuki and Maverick Viñales to part at the end of 2016

Are all ducs California Certified. (50 state compliant) I live in Cali and Im thinking of buying a 2015 PANIGALE S, but I'm concecearned with the registation. Second question. Is it worth it buying a 2015 vs. 2016 for a 5K difference.

Been watching the Moto America race from Road Atlanta today. Kind of a bummer that there are no Ducati's this year. I seem to remember 1 or 2 from last year. What series does Leon race in?
