Mod 2 done and passed. I've been stalking a few bikes; went out and saw a beautiful red Ducati ST4, bought it from a really nice gent and got it home earlier. Thanks to the folk who posted in my topic asking about the ST4; I was being a pussy and worrying about running one. You only live once right?

I'll stick some photos up on the appropriate thread soon. According to the paperwork she's had the final drive changed to match the 916. I've only got a CBF 650 and Fazer 600 to compare it to, but bloody hell it don't half shift...😲

I absolutely love it 😍

Some open pipes on it should make it obnoxious enough to set off car alarms.

Having ridden a 600 fazer and a big twin I'll offer this...smooth with throttle exiting corners. Saying that they are quite forgivable and hold a line. Confidence inspiring. Thumbs Up

Congrats, great feeling isn't it, even though 'twas many moons ago for me.
I think first ride out on a big bike surpassed the euphoria of passing.

Good lad!

I remember my first solo ride after passing. I'd just bought my ZZR and got on the autobahn to go home .... 135 mph then I ran out of bottle.

The first ride is the best.
