There's also a possibility that your rear shock setting is not correct... The tire is skipping on the road surface instead of following... Well, tis is only true if your milage you put in does not equate to the tire wear

Hey all , Ayuluc thanks for the company man !! You real fun guy tohave on rides and the fact that you DID NOT sleep wow !! worries me , I had to constantly make sure you did not fall asleep somewhere on the route to Malacca !!!

Ya the way you puunch the torquey monster of a bike Cagiva Raptor sure to wear off the centre thread, I forgot to ask you what is your tire pressure , if you are not on track and street riding , get it up to 38psi , can save you some rubber !! or get Michelins next time around , they do last a tad longer !!

Hope to organise on eride soon for our Duke Riders but wonder why so few Duke comm in this thread ???got to get Tiff to help again !!!!

haha! weak man! how can u let her do that! is track day leh! any how how about tmr? 071205 0830 gp esso! time for track again!

[SMOKEYPIPE]

Wah Flowers you pretty on for track ya!! Ayuluc, 42/48 ya too high now perhaps that is why the centre thread wears fast cos if over-inflated wear in the centre but under-inflated wear the side wall more, is that the recommended PSI for your tire ??/ I thought most will be 38/42 .

BBQ things not sure about that cos think Duke fellas WANT to ride, spuah , how about getting a track outing for all Duckies !!!! we can do sort of track day ourselves , help the first-timers if any ??? Christmas is coming so quite a few fellas must to clear leave , I have 2 duke riders in my group , BTW Ayuluc I met those guys on the track and slowly we made friends and met regularly , nice bunch of bikers , if you think you are crazy , thinking bikes, being a Doctor or a lawyer yet riding around even when you can jolly well afford to drive around , meet the Wheeler's cafe bunch , crazy about bikes !!!

Spuah how about a Track day of our own , 23rd or 30th of December Friday seems a good day since most may not work on Saturdays being eve of Christmas or eve of New year days, a track outing wil be Great , let's get an experience Duke rider to give some tips on track riding etc...... I know of some very good riders whom you can invite if done by you know who is the authority to contact duke owners right !!! maybe do a demo on the Multistrada on track !!!

i have chk abt booking PG and for a weekend it cost like 4000. (maybe can still nego abit. for weekdays we dont even have to really book, cost like only 100rm for 3 hrs per bike.

 

seriously it would be very easy to start with PG, rather than sepang.

Yep, will be good on a weekend but guess the price may put many off, today's papers S.T. about riding , re-born bikers, vice-president of Goldwingers Club featured, v p of BMW Club featured !! President of HOG featured !! What ever happened to Ducati, are Ducatist so un-sociable ??, one school of thought was that it is not a social bike unlike Goldwingers, BMWs & Harleys where cruising talking chatting is the norm of the day but we have monsters too , multistradas right so ????? Let,s get our feet shoving , I was once a Goldwinger and meet-up very regular , makes the ownership of the bikes more interesting meeting like-minded ppl , D.O.C you have got the perfect nickname for this job,

Initially we may need the contact list of Minerva or we send emails thru them , then we organise rides on track etc.......

 

How about we talk to Tiffany , get a circular out " Calling all Ducatists assemble behind Minerva to form our own DOC ", register as members , get all email list , maybe ask her for free T-shirts ha! ha!! they will flip , but then what an investment , all will wear the Ducati Singapore T-shirts, ride thru Orchard Road light-up , hear the rumble, clunking of Duke in motion , then assembel at Bojangles !!! How nice Dream Dream !!! Yes but all things start with Dreams !!!

 

I know many Duke owners are 2nd bikes owners , thus their 1st bikes are BMWs , Harleys, so they join that more organised groups !!!but how about those who own only one bike, and it is a Ducati ???

 

DOC, Flowers, ktkt let's get something started !!

Yes yes....that's what i had always been wondering, why so unsociable. Frankly, there're customers who suggest setting up of the club or ask me about the club but non has taken the initiative to do it or either....they tried than give up. Why not have an official meeting at Minerva to discuss about setting up of the club. Minerva can only be a supporting role, it's up to the Ducati Owners to start it. :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

[ayuluv]
