My wife loves her E class convertible, it's only the 220, but that's more than good enough for her!

Another one with the odds looking good at this point and only 99p a ticket! Wouldn't that rear wheel hit that number plate though? I don't normally like Sportsbikes, but by fook do Ducati make a nice looking bike! Might risk 99p as even if I couldn't ride it, I could afford to leave it in the garden as a bit of Art! :D

If I win it, I'm binning the fairing and putting mandlebars on it, so the plate can stay there as it'll look right on me fightered Pani! 8-)

I started off with "that's bloody lovely" and TBF, I'd still have one!! LOL But, what's with all the sticky-out-transformer-y bits? Does it change into something else??

Still - freaking awesome bike :wub: :wub: :wub:

To be honest, I prefer the look of the MT-10 and I'd rather have one over the Ducati too.

TBF, this one had me initially, but the weird bits are putting me off

I'm not sure I"ve seen an MT-10, but one bike I really am in love with is the modern Monster(any size really!! LOL). Luckily I also like the old Monster!! LOL But its that style I like :D

I've never owned a Monster. Came bloody close a few times but got outbid in the dying seconds! I still like older air cooled 900s but wont own one now as they aren't ULEZ compliant! :roll:

This firm struggles with ticket sales and the odds are normally better than most!

I was looking at that earlier and wondering, how on earth do you get 251 bhp down through a single, narrow, contact patch?
