Dear All,
I would imagine that quite a few of us Rolex enthusiasts are also fans of motorcycles. Me personally I had been into Italian bikes (mainly Ducatis) for quite a few years at a younger age, but lately Harleys grew more and more on me. It would be interesting to see pictures of the member's bikes, I will start with mine: 2016 HD Night Rod Special slightly customised 2009 Buell XB 12 S heavily customised Please keep the pictures coming! All the best, Adam |

I commute on bike every day for 15 years. A Sportster then switch to Ducati Monster, then added a Husky TE 630 to the stable. I sold both bikes a couple of months ago. I’m planning to get a Monster 821.
Here’s my Italian beauties: |

A few a few too many according to the wife
Thats number 2 grandson on the Honda Blackbird. Sent by Taptalk from my phone which rather annoyingly and randomly rotates my pictures the wrong way around whenever it takes a fancy. I am sure the damn things got a mind of its own. :-(

This is my current ride. A 2014 Ducati Multistrada 1200 S. Best bike I've ever owned.
Why is it that whenever I take my bike in for maintenance it is raining? Another pic. |

Just sold my latest Ducati:
The plan is to find a mint 998 and be done buying/selling bikes for good. :) If my friends don't convince me into a Multi, SDRider.. lol

The Multistrada was another bike that I rode a few times as a loaner bike. I proclaimed then that if I could own any two bikes on the planet that the Multistrada would be one of them. The last time I rode it I traded my Monster in a few weeks later for the bike I have now. It just seems to do everything well. It’s fast, it is comfortable, you can commute on it, you can do long distance touring, you can take the bags off and go canyon carving or even do track days. |

I was looking for a 1200 evo/s Monster when I got it but ultimately just want to find a really mint 998 and call it a day. My more experienced Ducatista brethren have warned me off of the 916/996 for the flaking valve issues so I've been limited to a 3yr window of bikes to find. The plan would be to get the nice "R" package bits on it and have my friend do a nice red with white factory number plate paint job.

Most of the bikes with the valve flaking issue have probably had the problem corrected by now. I would be wary of any low mileage models though. I love Ducati. Yeah, I’m definitely a Ducatista. |
