I have been a regular reader of the forums but it's been a while since i posted anything. 

 

I have enjoyed this forum and my 96 TDM850 for quite some time now (and 130 000km on the odometer) and it is time to move on.

My new ride is a 2013 Ducati Multistrada S Granturismo (quite a mouthful ... and a handful). 

2013-Ducati-Multistrada-1200S-Granturism

 

I would like to say thanks for all the entertainment and help from the forums over the years and i'll see you on the road.

 

I have told the buyer of my TDM of this forum so don't be surprised if a yellow one turns up.

Bye

My first ride on the original Multistrada was a joy and 285 miles of smiles - loved it. Enjoy.
