    Hello Missenden, like you i'm an 899 devotee, i liked your expression Garage Queen. I bought my 899 about same time as you - it has 10,500km on the odo. It's a good touring bike, the riding position doesn't bother me. I installed the throttle spacers, and my favourite motorbike mechanic Ethan Meyer, fabricated a removable luggage rack which is sized to hold a Kriega 30 bag + battery charger connection and USD outlet for mobile phone connection for Google Maps - so i don't get lost in the hillsa along the Laos border. For me, It's a great bike.

      Jay B You can sort it online though so if it's before midnight you'll be alright. Also when we bought our last car on 30th June he let us get home before cancelling it and any anpr or cops would still have it on the database as taxed. Then we taxed from July 1st. Technically naughty but isn't double taxation also so according to ...I dunno maybe the magna carta or something?!

    Brilliant! Just picked up a brand new 2018 959 Panigale, and I'm anticipating the same kind of life for mine as yours. And yes, I said brand new 2018, in 2020. It was a leftover. Seems as soon as the V2 and V4 came out, having the previous variant was out of fashion. Well that's fine with me, as I got it for 62% of it's original retail price. Dealer finally needed to just move it. Be that as it may, I love your garage and your passion for lovely bikes.

    I put just over 600 miles on my 899 in my first year of ownership and I also plan to keep the bike. So far all I've done is change the oil and filter and all the dot 4 brake and clutch fluid. All I'm looking at now is a single seat conversion and a new 899 decal that is peeling and that's it.

  • @1956colinb

    Always enjoy your reviews TMF, but seriously....get that bike used!!
    I bought my 899 in September 2014, so it’s almost 5 years old now...
    After 11 rear tyres, 8 fronts, 1 set of brake pads and its 3rd chain and sprocket kit, it now has just over 24,000 miles on it !!
    And I’m still in love with the thing 😍!
    As well as the usual weekend blasts, it’s done two Europe trips and I have at least two long weekends away in the UK, probably 1,000 miles each.
    Only had one small problem with it, clutch master cylinder seal wore a tiny hole through it, meaning it would only hold the clutch open for about 4 or 5 seconds, try getting it back on a ferry like that!!
    Ducati only wanted to sell me a complete clutch master cylinder assembly for £240 !! But I managed to fix it with a KTM Brembo seal kit for just over £20 , see post no 57 in this link :-
    www.ducatiforum.co.uk/threads/alternatives-to-the-genuine-ducati-parts.594/page-3
    I’ve been biking for close on 40 years now and the 899 has been probably the best bike I’ve ever had, still looks stunning after all those miles, I’m pretty anal with cleaning it so it still looks and rides like new!
    I expected it to be a fantastic ride, which it is, but two things I really didn’t expect were how easy it is to keep clean , comes up sparkling clean with the minimum of effort..and also it’s economy with petrol, on a weekend thrash, it’ll still turn in mid 40s mpg, on a very warm slap down a Belgian motorway.......63mpg!!
    That’s the only time the engine heat has troubled me, on a trip into Germany in last years heat wave, ambient temperature of about 34c in Saarbucken and the temperature gauge on the bike hit 108c going through the city centre,....couldn’t sit on the seat, ouch!!
    That never bothers me at home though in NE England, bike normally runs at about 86c.
    Would I have another 899,....in a heartbeat!!
    Anyone thinking of buying one, just do it, ...don’t wrap it up in the garage, use it as much as you can....the harder you ride these things, the better they feel, that’s what they were designed for,....going apeshit crazy on a nice sunny day!
    Can’t see me ever selling it, all other bikes just look so ugly compared to the Panigale, so I’m thinking of adding either a 1050 Speed triple RS or V4 1100 Tuono to the stable next year.
    Keep up the good work TMF, and get riding that 899 !!

I always pay one off for tax as with a few bikes, you save a few quid.

I rode a 999 in Brighton, the first in the country, a test ride by my late mate Robbie (MCN reviewer), I felt like the King of the universe, even when I stalled it on the seafront on bikers day with hoi-poloi bikes everywhere. My advice:Get a sports bike with cruise control and ditch adventure bikes for ever.

    Completely agree I was considering selling/trading my 959 but its just too beautiful despite a hip replacement and general aches I fitted some Gilles raised clipons and comfort seat and what a difference very comfortable now and people shouldn't think of these as the baby Panigale because they go like....er surprisingly fast.

  • @ragerider6283
    @ragerider6283 5 лет назад +4

    Still a very pretty bike. Personally I don't think the looks have dated & arguably it looks as good if not better maybe than the current version. Although like most sports bikes, you've really got to be in the mood to ride it due to it's focused nature & quasimodo riding position so I'm not too surprised you haven't done many miles on it considering the other bikes you own. Still great to have nonetheless I'm sure & perfect when your in sports mode.

    Most bikes like this are more garage ornaments than motorcycles, to put in perspective it’s costing not far off £2 every mile you ride it. A nice thing to have if you have excess cash but ultimately more suited to the track than the road.
    I briefly ran an R1 with my GS, did around 1000 miles on the R1 and was always thinking of reasons to take the GS instead when I went for a ride so an easy decision to get rid of the R1....looked nice though in the garage.

    Not particularly a sports bike fan, but sure is a good looker. As others have said, you do get the road tax refunded for the unused months. Where it is a con though, is if you sell part way through the month you won't get refunded for those weeks and the new owner taxes from the start of that month, so the DVLA get double bubble for that month.

    Morning Andy! That Duke is a lovely machine and I totally get why you have it in your collection - money no object, I’d have a “queen” to 👍
    As for filming with the GoPro - nothing wrong with it, although the wide angle does give a bit of a fisheye effect, where as the DLSR is more natural.

    Hi, the GoPro images were fine though a bit wobbly. Pity you don't get the chance to ride it more often but at roughly £500 for 500 miles (approx) it isn't that bad cost wise.

    Great bike TMF, some bikes grab your heart and are keepers for sure!. When you have a passion for bikes the 'depreciation ' affect isn't relevant...in good condition bikes reach a plateau of value and if your lucky become classics! Remember to move it round the garage so you can admire from different angles....or am I the only one that does that...? !! Cheers, Steve

    Hi Andy,
    Can you please confirm if you have the ‘Db Killers’ installed in your Termi exhaust- or do you ride it without them fitted..?
    If it’s the latter, do you have any issues with excessively exhaust noise at low engine speed ..?
    Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
    Kind regards,
    Ian.

  • @oo-dd3lk

    Lovely machine.. I find as I get older they don’t get ridden as much.. the idea of having a bike in the garage always sounds good though. But with several bikes, plus testing other bikes, I suppose TMF does’nt get to put huge miles on any one bike. I’d love a Goldwing DCT to finish off my motorcycling years, but suspect it would end up being a very expensive ornament in the garage.... Don’t have the enthusiasm at 63, that I had at 21....( And in my 20’s I could’nt have afforded the Goldwing or BMW of the day, which I would have loved to have...ironic.)

    Good luck to you on this one. I've given up on sports bikes as they're too costly to own or get nicked by the Law when you start to enjoy yourself. Adventure, dual road bikes are the way to go as they're more versatile and ageless.

    Re the use of the go pro, I hadn't even realised a different camera until you mentioned it, so I looked back at the 2-year review for comparison. I prefer the darker go pro colours and I thought the sound was better that the 2-year review, although I am not sure what camera you were using then :-)

    Unbelievable number of disrespectful comments here. My VFR1200F sits in my garage for way more time than I get to ride it - a much maligned motorcycle - by those that have never ridden one. It takes nothing away from the pleasure of ownership. The Panigale in all iterations is stunning to behold and I would be humbled to be able to own one. A critic is one who has tried and failed.

    You've been naughty here, kind Sir, " I've never had the chance to ride it in the wet yet..."... as far as I know your area is just as wet as Bristol area, or a tad bit drier but definitely have enough rain for you to play around with the puddles;))) But yes, deffo don't do it with new tyres though when it has been made for dry surfaces. I took my 0mile '08 Tenere home from the dealer when the decent rain hit, and I was sliding all over the place in corners even at low, 30-40mph speeds. They were the Metzler tyres, I think that was the standard for the XTZ Ten back i the day.
    Haha, I should definitely not complain about the wear of my rear tyre on the Super 10... I am changing it after 8500+miles after all year round use.
    Enjoy the rides!

    Not sure on your tax front theory as you get back any unused months tax automatically when you sell the vehicle anyway so I would take the yearly one off saving if you have the funds available.
