There is quite a few standard ones about, but finding a decent one with a few extras is hard work and depressing, they get snapped up too.

Ducati Aylesbury said every modified one they have had has gone with a week, I bought mine within an hour of it going on the website. He has a red standard 1100S in that he can't shift at all as no one wants standard ones. I imagine non S models are near impossible to move on.

You defo want the 1100S though over the normal 1100, you get lots of carbon fibre, awesome brakes (the ones on the 1100/796 suck), better suspension and Marchesini wheels.

We are going to be noisey mofo's when we head out, the termi full system is ridiculous, Kerry **** herself when I started it in the garage, tons louder than the cbr.

Glad to be back on a twin.

I wouldn't say the 1100/796's brakes suck but they aren't the monsters that the monoblocs are. Bear in mind our ones are the same that the 1098/1198 superbikes have!!

Yeah will be quite a sight...one will go by ,a bit rare, followed by another very rare.

Yes it's nice Mate Karl has one, I don't think he has difficulty over 100

TBH not my cup of tea but it is still a beautiful bike

Irony... 5 emails about my CBR this week so far. I always point out it's still for sale though, just not with me and for over £1k more. Over a month of no interest then masses :s

Finished spending on the bike for now...



And me ripping apart my 60 plate bike after less than 400 miles on it... Very odd feeling, but strangely entertaining.



To fit this, my final expenditure for a while on the bike, it's just as I want it now, a fun machine with 22ltr tank for a 200mile tank range.





Coupled with these it's going to be a good summer. Europe, Scotland, maybe the isle of man for a long weekend when there's nothing going on over there and then as many rideouts as possible.


Roll on summer.

I want everything about that bike. It's just perfect now

I'd love that to be my next bike if I could afford it. Got any pics with it all loaded up? How many litres storage is it?

Very, very nice. Even more jealous now than I was before. My future bike shopping list has got a new number 1

Would be good to see it fully dressed with that luggage...

22 litres on that makes me think twice about a KTM SMT for the next bike now
