Title: New bike time Post by: mattyvas on March 04, 2009, 06:23:07 PM After 2 years of getting to know my 620 and enjoying every moment the time has finally come.
Yes she is really For Sale. I'm selling it in two forms. Firstly as you see it with everything on it bar my sargent seat. $12,350 ready to go Secondly I'll stripe it back to stock and let it go for $10,200.

Good luck with the sale Matty. Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Betty on March 04, 2009, 08:30:21 PM And the answer to oft asked question is ? Although hanging on to the Sargeant would indicate no 848 or M1100, so I'm guessing (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3333/3329388881_f01cdec5f1.jpg?v=0) Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Spider on March 04, 2009, 10:45:09 PM apparently he can keep up with the big boys with the 620.....so I'm going to guess a S2R800.
he'll flog youse all!!!!!! [evil] go get em' matty! (and BTW the bloke selling the S4RS that we spoke about via email hasn't returned my email - obviously my money is no good!) Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Spider on March 04, 2009, 10:47:13 PM Betty.....

Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Spider on March 05, 2009, 01:43:08 AM Also no comment [popcorn] also no comment [popcorn] (I commented previously not realising that people with real information say no comment and therefore am changing my comment to no comment, please disregard all previous comments I've made on this forum and whilst disregarding can you also forget about the Saturday night with the spanish tranny and the 2 litre tub of gelati. thank you) Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Dockstrada on March 05, 2009, 02:15:08 AM gee you guys give me the shits just tell us [bang] Sorry Jukie what happened on the island stayed on the island ;D Title: Re: New bike time Post by: mattyvas on March 05, 2009, 02:22:52 AM Nothing can be said because I haven't started looking for a bike yet.
I am keeping my Sargent just to keep my options open. 848 might well be in my future (did you see the snap of me on it at PI) Can't bring myself to pay $24k for an M1100s plus bling..... [roll] So there's a few options 848/S2-4R/ or maybe even a Multi ??? Just been touring you know...... Title: Re: New bike time Post by: heatherp on March 05, 2009, 02:31:17 AM also no comment. sorry Jukie ;D [cheeky] [laugh]
Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Betty on March 05, 2009, 02:33:21 AM Yes I saw the photos of you on the 848 ... again ... but the seat was throwing me.
The mutlistroodle is a worry thought though, just remember the tour's over now. I also notice all the 'stroodle photos have Goldie standing alongside ... with Vince's unhealthy obsession, the Ozmo portal could be shortlived. ... so we are back to the fridge ... you know it makes sense (sort of). Title: Re: New bike time Post by: mattyvas on March 05, 2009, 02:50:44 AM I do like fridges they keep milk cold for my tea and scones, right Craig and Steph [thumbsup]
Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Jukie on March 05, 2009, 12:19:58 PM Sorry Jukie what happened on the island stayed on the island ;D yeh well you know what you can do with that. i hope you got your present and a thanks will be nice someday soon, at least some other dmf guy has some manners when i do favours for him. hmmm Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Super T.I.B on March 05, 2009, 12:22:42 PM Will you just buy a bloody bike! :P
Title: Re: New bike time Post by: goldFiSh on March 05, 2009, 12:23:27 PM The mutlistroodle is a worry thought though, just remember the tour's over now. I also notice all the 'stroodle photos have Goldie standing alongside ... with Vince's unhealthy obsession, the Ozmo portal could be shortlived. Never fear Betty, the portal is safe. Dock does have a very unhealthy obsession with the MS. He even refused to overtake one on the way down "out of respect". And then there was the time at the track we saw a MS and a D16 parked side by side. Of course we took a photo, and when we showed Dock......... well, lets just say that the rest of that story is best left on the Island :-X Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Jukie on March 05, 2009, 12:24:28 PM feel te same way Super. how have you been
Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Dockstrada on March 05, 2009, 12:25:46 PM yeh well you know what you can do with that. i hope you got your present and a thanks will be nice someday soon, at least some other dmf guy has some manners when i do favours for him. hmmm Oh Jukie your so nasty, I did recieve your present and and it looks very nice, yes I did forget to thankyou sorry .It will be more of a personal thanks when we meet next [thumbsup] In any case Thanks you nasty thing you [cheeky] Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Jukie on March 05, 2009, 12:27:58 PM gotta keep you guys in line and remember you manner when there is a lady about.
Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Super T.I.B on March 05, 2009, 12:33:38 PM feel te same way Super. how have you been Fine. Bit pissy I had to miss out on the WSBK weekend away, but, what are ya gonna do? :-\ Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Jukie on March 05, 2009, 01:05:59 PM me too, but had a great ride on the saturday with the others
Title: Re: New bike time Post by: mostro900 on March 05, 2009, 03:40:35 PM /comment ON
Matty - you can't do the multi....you at least have to wait until Vince & I get our Stradaperta's - at least a year away?! ...on the other hand, that white 848 is looking mightily tidy and you 2 look good together.... /comment OFF nothing to say...move along folks... Title: Re: New bike time Post by: craigo on March 05, 2009, 05:31:19 PM Re: Matty's next bike [using sgt schultz voice] I know nothing! NOTHING!*
Stroodle + Desmo == Dock's Wet Dream. Imagine how many scones you could keep in them there panniers.

Title: Re: New bike time Post by: mattyvas on March 05, 2009, 07:31:31 PM Fine. Bit pissy I had to miss out on the WSBK weekend away, but, what are ya gonna do? :-\ Suck it up and come with! ;D I bought a bike 2 yrs ago. This thread was about me selling a bike first I do believe. I don't know if I mentioned at all what I am going to buy. Yes there might be an Rs on the market, but then after sitting on 848 again. There is a test ride to be had down sth so I can really ride the thing, not just see 1st/2nd gear in traffic.

Yes, you are right. ;) Just have to save my penny's for next year, or MotoGP this year. 8) Good luck with your sale tiger. [thumbsup] Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Jukie on March 05, 2009, 07:50:00 PM sorry Matty, wont happen again
Title: Re: New bike time Post by: mostro900 on March 05, 2009, 08:18:35 PM WARNING! Threadjack!! sortof...
so Jukie, how did you like that Desmo ? Think it might be something Matty should save his pennies for ?? ;) Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Betty on March 05, 2009, 08:32:03 PM Don't think it is a threadjack at all - the title of the thread is 'New Bike Time' so that is what we are discussing ;D
An entry in the Trading Post might help Matty. Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Dockstrada on March 05, 2009, 08:40:50 PM Re: Matty's next bike [using sgt schultz voice] I know nothing!

Problem with that is things get burried real quick. Only takes a few posts and it's down page and lost. Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Spider on March 06, 2009, 01:37:12 AM so....anyone here interested in Matty's bike?
wasn't there a bloke who joined and wanted it quickly? (no, folks, 2m tall spiders don't fit on 620 ducati's....so no smart ideas) Title: Re: New bike time Post by: goldFiSh on March 06, 2009, 01:40:25 AM so....anyone here interested in Matty's bike? wasn't there a bloke who joined and wanted it quickly? (no, folks, 2m tall spiders don't fit on 620 ducati's....so no smart ideas) you'd be surprised! I rode it for a bit and found it quite comfy, except that matty has a womens foot and I could not fit my man boots in between the left peg and the gear lever... ;D Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Spider on March 06, 2009, 01:53:46 AM I'm a size 14 / euro 49......maybe not goldie!
Title: Re: New bike time Post by: mattyvas on March 06, 2009, 03:15:58 AM The pegs and shift lever are adjustable Spider.
But I'm not sure if you can handle a 620, having been off the bike for a while! Title: Re: New bike time Post by: goldFiSh on March 06, 2009, 03:30:27 AM I think Spider would enjoy the 620. I think I'm going to start a poll....

Had a big brain freeze and bought a different bike. My loss .....Will be someone else's gain. Beautiful bike Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Eillo on March 08, 2009, 09:02:18 PM PM sent [thumbsup]
Title: Re: New bike time Post by: monstermick58 on March 09, 2009, 02:43:32 AM Dont test ride the BM matty, dont do it mate
Mmick (did I just say that out loud) Title: Re: New bike time Post by: mattyvas on March 09, 2009, 02:42:11 PM Did I mention a BM test ride?
Just 848 and maybe something else. Title: Re: New bike time Post by: giannig on March 15, 2009, 01:31:05 AM Matty,
I got to test ride the 848 on the track.....a lot of fun. I could never understand how people could have a Ducati superbike as their one and only bike but after a week and around 1,000 klms on the 999S, I could easily get used to it. Did about 300klms today and feel fine. I think the 848 is a great option for you. Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Spider on March 15, 2009, 01:39:33 AM I could never understand how people could have a Ducati superbike as their one and only bike but after a week and around 1,000 klms on the 999S, I could easily get used to it.

RJ Title: Re: New bike time Post by: mattyvas on March 15, 2009, 01:41:04 AM Wow :o how did you get to test ride on the track?
Would love to have that chance, cause test riding round Concord ain't much fun. 848 is very attractive, but I'm thinking it might be a 2nd trackie next year sometime. Especially that they are 20k and under now, another 12 mths and I might even find one at $16-17k.... Title: Re: New bike time Post by: giannig on March 15, 2009, 01:44:51 AM Wow :o how did you get to test ride on the track?

Especially that they are 20k and under now, another 12 mths and I might even find one at $16-17k.... The guys from Penrith Ducati had one. It was the stage where I was seriously considering one and they let people who were on the market test it. If you want to test ride one properly, go to Penrith and they will look after you. Title: Re: New bike time Post by: giannig on March 15, 2009, 01:47:53 AM done any chugging around town on the 999s? How's that? RJ Spider, apart from the more extreme riding position it is easier to ride than my 916 Monster. In traffic the Monster overheats and splatters and stalls constantly. There fans come on far too late. I need to install a manual switch. The 999S is fine but I wouldn't recommend it for commuting. Title: Re: New bike time Post by: mattyvas on March 15, 2009, 01:59:35 AM yeah I've seen them at the track a few times and spoken to the dealer principal at The Monster Party.
He did seem really cool and invited me out to ride anything they have on the floor. Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Dockstrada on March 15, 2009, 10:06:25 PM I have a secret...........and Goldfish is the only one that knows ;D

But if it's what I'm thinking Goldfish wouldn't be the only one involved. So maybe not? Title: Re: New bike time Post by: Jukie on March 15, 2009, 10:31:44 PM i might also have several secrets, but im not telling you which one

So as you all have witnessed, I have been reminded of the "virtues" of omerta, but lets just say that you may all be surprised at Dock's forward thinking. That is all I dare say on the subject......
