The bike is stock condition, no modifications. Considering that its 15 yrs old, I would give it a 7/10. That's not knowing the engine condition.

 

7/10~! not bad for a old bike... i bet the engine sounds good too. most ducati owners show TLC to their bikes.

I bet this FL plate monster owner too show lotsa TLC to his bike.

hey people im planning to buy some ducati apparel and accessories from overseas which is 1/3 cheaper than the local dealer.. if more people buy then the shipping cost becomes less because it is flat rate £70, so even if buy 1 item or buy 10 item still same rate therefore more people buy and split the cost will be cheaper!

 

they are selling helmets, jacket, bike accessories, cloths any many more, savings can be few hundred. anybody interested? if so pm me thanks!

[tribbiani]

hmm but looking at the prices there, they don't seem alot cheaper than minerva. in fact, pretty much the same to me. or is there some sort of special discount going on?

[st88]

for jacket and helmet is alot cheaper, esp helmet cheaper by 200-600

 

example: Arai RX-7 Corse Full Face Helmet 2009 (local: $2128, webbie: £585 (about $1300 includ tax + shipping))

£70 flat rate for shipping even for 10 items? Can they guarantee that price and delivery? Anything that's shipped out of UK is always either horribly expensive (minimum £65 for 2KG air parcel) or terribly slow (£36 Economy rate for 45 - 60 days).

 

You can price your parcel delivery at:

http://www.pfwwsg.parcelforce.com/portal/pw/PriceFinder;jsessionid=TDNFYTEPL2NJ2FB2IGKUOSQ?catId=24400720&reset=true&gear=pricingcalc

 

I've had enough bad experiences with UK suppliers who accept your order and payment only to come back much later with higher shipping charges. Getting it resolved means paying the higher charges and getting a refund takes forever!

Here the arcticle that i missed out earlier

ya i have tried and like order 12 items(anyhow add quantity) and the shipping charges still come out to £70, hmm i have order things from Fred Perry before and they also charge flat rate, they're also from UK.. ya no doubt for the ducati stuff some may take slower because some items they dont have it in stock so they must order from factory.

 

i dont think they can just halfway say they want to charge us more for shipping, oh well but havent even order then worry so much.. see how it goes lah

[technicolorhighway]

2009 pricelist includes 6 mth road tax,number plate and registration fee

 

monster 696 - $21950

1100 - $26804

1100s - $30804

s4rs - $34885

 

 

S4RS is a good buy compareD to the Monster 1100s.

basic monster is $4k cheaper and is only 1kg heavier than the S version that is OHLINS equipt.

 

Looks like 750's will no more be produced.

 

Oh...in case anyone is wondering how much is 1098 R TROY BAYLISS version is going for? $95362 compared to 1198 S $52800.

 

I wonder if full suit is given as freebies.

I personally thinks that a trip to Italy should be included.
