ducati DESMOSEDICI in cowes this arvo post-GP

wow, constant crowd around it

great day down at PI, perfect riding weather

 

Any pics of the Desmo vlaka??

 

yep on my phone upload tomorrow

 

well done.

 

Talking of the Desmo, 360C's must be due soon.

 

Scott,

I have a mate doing up one of these at present who just put on a turbo as big as a MAc truck. He might still have lots of the original bits left over. With the right bits it wouldn't take too much to put it back to it's former glory. Or alternatively, grab another out of Japan and use all the good bits from your original to make another.

A bloke can't have too many toys, and besides if you can make the time, you would get the use and enjoyment out of it, probably more than the F cars!

 

another Gunna.

 

Cheers mang!

Oh, really??

Lol!!

 

I think it was due in November from memory. Someone with skills will be able to find his post.

fantastic, does he track it?

 

I think it was due October/November, I haven't checked. I am a bit concerned at the collapse of the Ausie dollar as each bike is imported to order (ie no stock) and is priced according to the exchange rate at the time it lands.
They were $100k when the dollar was circa 93 cents US. At 74 cents it could have gone up significantly.

 

cancel it.

you know you should!

two brilliant ducatis are enough.

 

I am going to move it on. I have zero interest in doing road rallies these days, so I don't have any use for it even if it was complete. It also acts as a red rag to a bull with the Mrs for some strange reason, so having it in the garage would be an invitation for constant drama. Just not worth the trouble sadly.

 

I rarely do the sensible thing. I thought that was obvious by now

 

Yes, but when did THEY pay for it 360C??? You are a good customer so I am sure they will not try and exploit you.

I had someone try and pull that story on me 2 weeks ago when I bought another Stainless Tank. He said the Aussie$ has dropped. BIt different to you but the tank was on the shelf. I reminded him that it had only dropped in recent weeks.

 

It's actually 11 years since I bought my last Ducati, so hardly a great customer. My how time flies

I would be surprised if there is a big time differential between importation and it landing on the dealers floor. I think the last Desmosedicis are being built in October, so it probably won't turn up until late November. No rush........

 

you should get it then ill bring the hypermotard down and we can swap for the day .............lol

 

At Gold Coast yesterday.

Strange! Orange Aston Martin, Vantage, clear tail lights. The vantage badge had a little map of nurburing beside it? It looked like some race track anyway, but it looked apart of the VANTAGE badge so is it a special edition?

SL65 AMG "XX" Tedder

Quattroportte Black Tedder

Maserati 3200S , blue? Tedder. HD Spec

Aston DB9, dark blue, marina mirage, plates JL 1? (Ive seen it there before)

DB9 grey plates "OTB 007" near georges paragon area (cant remember name), but was just up the road.
