Just wondering how long some of you have had to wait for your brand new bike to arrive. The sleepless nights are already haunting me (15 and counting).

It's getting to a point where I'm gonna have to visit dealers to pretend I am buying a bike so I can get a test ride just to feed my longing fix.

Oh where are you my precious!!!!!?Huh?Huh?

So they have given you no idea?

Jukie's was a couple of months from memory. Mine was out the back before I bought it ... I waited a week.

Mine also was out the back and I waited 5 days......

But worth the wait.....  [moto]  [moto]  [moto]

So all I can say is "get used to the waiting" cause there is lots more waiting times to come as you patiently wait for the bling to arrive.....  Grin  Grin

696 with termi system. I believe the pipes have arrived, just no bike.

Perhaps i could just strap the pipes onto my belt and run around maiking broom broom noises.

Oh you poor thing - I feel your pain.  Cry  You have to learn patience with Ducati shops Grasshopper.  Took me 3 months to get mine back when it needed a new back wheel.

Yes hang round the bike shop and go on test rides to feed your new addiction, but bugging them won't make them give you your bike any faster (speaking from experience).

Haha aint that the truth. I own and currently ride a 20year grey import. Full of bugs. Patients I know. Like waiting for the wife to come pick me up on the side of the road in the p1ssing rain. Like waiting for the wife to pick me up in the middle of the night. Like leaving the thing on the side of the road and walking home. So patience with old bikes no problem. Patience waiting for new bike - Yes very much a young grasshopper.

Time to pray to the Ducati gods maybe.

Owning a Duc is good practice for being in a relationship with a woman!!  Evil Roll Eyes Grin cheeky

Ya gotta learn patience, things will happen for no good reason, it will seem that you are the target of a shitty attitude, and things will happen when the bike (? waytogo? )is good and ready to let it happen and not before! Regardless of the amount of sweet talking, cajoling and bribery.  laughingdp applause bow down

Oh, and spend vast sums on their appearance and not get so much as a "Play with me" if you please.  Evil

I await the response from the ladies that is sure to follow.  chug laughingdp cheeky
