Title: Brisbane ride? Post by: brimo on September 02, 2008, 02:44:49 PM Anyone keen for a ride?, suggestions?
Weekend only good for me. Also will not be able to go on the 14th sept, (DOCQ ride) [moto] Andrew Title: Re: Brisbane ride? Post by: brimo on September 02, 2008, 04:51:32 PM The 2008 Ducati show and shine is on the 21st september in Redcliffe, maybe that could be a start or a finish.

Rickoz Title: Re: Brisbane ride? Post by: MonsterDorf on September 03, 2008, 12:50:33 AM OK, keen but will only be in Brissy on the 13 & 14 Sep and 4 - 6 Oct 08.
Unfortunately also will only have access to a TRX850, which is close to a Duc, but no cigar :) Title: Re: Brisbane ride? Post by: loony888 on September 03, 2008, 01:33:56 AM riding a replica mick? ;D

Every ride I've been on something went wrong. Day 1 - I went to put some air in the tyres (owner must think that's not necessary) and one of the valves snapped. On the second ride the LH mirror fell off - cat like reflexes saved the day as I grabbed it before it hit the ground - wondering what'll happen next? But I won't be deterred. Seems to have plenty of torque but the gearing is a little high (long) which dulls the experience a bit. At the very least we could meet up for a coffee @ Glorious on a weekend I'm home. |
