I'm only planning on riding on pavement. I ended up buying a 2005 XB12S over the weekend. A great deal popped up on FB marketplace and I was the...

I have a 2005 800SS Ducati with a wet clutch :-) that clutch died at 15,000 KMS, I suspect I used the wrong oil.

Thank You for the verification. The clutch and associated parts all look great. I’m going to go over it all again with a fine toothed comb, but I’m...

Exposed Dycks?

While that is pretty funny to most of us, I don't think Barret would find it so as he is exposed to Dycks all the time.

Sounds like you'd be better off with TKC70's, very good on road and pretty good off road, got 13000 miles on a set on my Tiger 1200, there was still...

Sorry to side track, but are the xb clutches the same across all models? 900 included?

There seems to be a lot of Dycks there:

IMO an M-2 is one of the great bikes that truly does everything very well. You could always spent $50 and change the handlebars to something with...

A $3500 Blast!? Don't tell Bubbles she sold hers too early

You're gonna want a SS, STT, or Uly for the added suspension travel if you are even thinking of anything off-pavement.

There is seriously a guy I see all the time even bigger than that, on an R/6! At least three cows gave their life for that guys leather suit:upset:

Nice pic. I always thought the Uly was a big bike, but it looks puny compared with that Tiger.

I understand... I've seen you in your track day leathers...:black_eyed:
