Hi, I'm studying Media in London and as I'm starting the second year I was thinking to bring my Ducati with me. I will travel 4 days a week from Tufnell Park to Elephant & Castle at the Uni. I wanted to ask you about the reliability because my target is to score lower than the monthly Oyster which is £80 pm. And of course because I love my bike:)
any thoughts? any Monsters in London?Smiley

Cheers!


btw, my bike is a 2000 M300AA

There's quite afew members of the UKMOC that live and ride in London, have a look on the web-site and join the club we're a great bunch of guys and gals... waytogo

One thing you might want to consider is a secure parking place... Police

Do the required maintenance on or near schedule, and it will be as reliable and durable as any other bike.  My M900 has served me as daily transport for almost 20 years so far.

I've been to London and saw quite a number of Monsters there so it shouldn't be a problem, but like geoffduc said, finding secure (and affordable) parking for it may be the hard part.
