I have now sold my trusty steed to a new member on here with everything on it which saves me the hassle of removing it all and selling it elsewhere.

David aka tartan-jock who resides way up north has sent me a holding deposit and all being well will take delivery in just over a week.

This very morning I have removed my private plate online which was a doddle and will be visiting my local dealer who will no doubt have great fun relieving me of my money in exchange for a Ducati Multistrada S.

Rest assured people of this parish I am going nowhere, I will be here reading the posts, writing posts and taking the Mick when necessary, this forum has been an invaluable source of help and information and I will be testing the new owner on parts of the workshop manual which I have sent to him in PDF format to ensure he keeps the bike up to standard.

More when I know.
Ducati owner now but I used to have a Black one, the fastest version.
Previous, Sprint ST (2), VFR 800, Fireblade's (4) SP1, VTR1000, GPZ900, CB250, BSA Bantam D14/4, Suzuki TS100, SX200.

O.C.

That is good news on several fronts Alan, good that you have sold your bike and congratulations to Tartan Jock (David), good news that your new Multistrada will soon be in your possession and also good news that you will still be on here to take the p*ss out of us all  :clap: :clap: :clap: 

Post some pictures of the Duc when you can  :yes:

Don't you just love it when everyone's a winner.
Al's got his price knowing it's gone to a nice new caring home and David's picked up a great bike.

tartan-jock

What condition is it?  how much are you looking for?   thanks

Brings a tear to my eye...

BigAlan would love to see some pictures of the water transfer thingy when you get it done, saw that a few months back, initial thought it was a spoof like upside down maps and tartan paint.

But I have been proven wrong on both counts of the latter.

No it's an original, of a 2015.

No thought about price, but with the weight of it I guess it would have to be collected

tartan-jock

okay can't pickup im afraid.  thanks for the offer

I send items using Hermes ,  you would be able to send exhaust for less than £10 , I send a seat for £6 , it's surprisingly cheap to Send largish heavy items , an exhaust is slim and not to long even if on the weighty side , get some online quotes ,,  :biker3:
