** Folks I made an error regarding getting your unused bike Tax back - Turns out you can get it back - please no more comments on that one! Thanks for putting me straight! **
I was thinking that!
Me too. lol
I was just polishing up my typing fingers as I got a cheque back for a car we traded in. Have to say, I didn't know you got it back, either.
just 3600 miles lol such a funny bald shorty lol
The 899 needs more road time mate, no point owning a playboy centrefold and not having fun with her.
ahahahahahahaha
It’s funny how some people make negative comments out of jealousy... Pleasure of ownership has many facets not just high mileage 👍
I agree with that!
Agreed.
Agreed also
Yep
Too bloody right. Well said. What a sad spiteful world we live in.
The beginning is typical Ducati owner's talks.. the joy fear and pain all in one😂😂
Yep went and bought one in red after seeing your reviews. Absolutely love it.
Interesting review TMF. A beautiful machine. Video quality spot on from where I’m sitting.cheers. 😎👍🏍🇦🇺
Cheers Russ!
Nice, considered review. Much appreciated. I have 2 classic and 2 modern Ducati and love them all. Fantastic bikes. Never had a problem with any of them either. Looking forward to a review of the new V2 - highly likely to buy one later this year...
Yes I'd like a go on one of those to compare against my 899....
Thank you for posting. Great looking bike. Keep enjoying it in good health.
Nothing wrong with having a garage queen. :) It is a beautiful bike.
That bike is fantastic. All of you're mods are exactly what I want to do to my 899 when I find the right one. Not over the top on mods, just oe plus. 😎
I think we need another panivlogali video soon after watching this haha. The Panigale is one of those bikes that always gives me goosebumps, even more so when you hear them. Rare to see but always a pleasure. Glad to hear you're keeping her! 😍
Oh yes, while I can, I will!
Nice vid and didn't notice the video quality to busy looking at the bike, but might go back and have another look. 👍
Looks absolutely fine from my end, keep em coming 👍
good update Tmf lovely looking bike . Thanks Danny 😊
Fingers crossed you get a chance to do a small tour on this beast! Hoping to get my hands on an 899 later in the year 🤙
Yes I’d love too - though comfort would be an issue for sure...
Just traded my 899 for a 950 SP - couldn't get on with the crashing suspension on the bumpy East Yorks roads. Funnily enough I took it to the NW200 this year and touring wasn't too bad in 75 min stints.
Great update TMF, she is still as bonnie as ever! Didn't notice any difference in quality at all, seemed spot on to me. I only watch on an old ipad mini tho, so maybe not the best test!
Hi TMF, Sound and picture quality absolutely great
The quality of your video is great 👍🏻
Love to see a few more videos of the 899 got to be my fav bike the TMF garage
Beautiful! One day I'll have a collection as well. Good on you!
Another informative video. The film quality was fine. Camara worked well. Loved the info on the Ducati. Always interested in the reliability of the beautiful Italians. Most especially over the long term.
Great Video and I'm glad your keeping the queen. Go-pro was spot on.
Never ridden a bike before but I'm making it my goal to own a panigale, im not hugely into sports bikes but the shapes, the power and freedom it offers has got me falling in love.
I am glad you have fallen in love! Just make sure you can truly ride on such a beautiful machine for more than 30 minutes with the difficult ergonomics of these supersport class machines.
Most beautiful bike you have Sir. Thanks for the update........Sal : )
I like this quality! Carry on like this
Thank you will do...
great vid once again tmf. cheers for sharing. thx.
Thank you for watching!
Great video. Video quality is great. The colour tone was more natural looking from my prospective.
Loved watching yer clip as I have a 899 with low kms as if they get rarer they may hold there price in the future.
Video quality is spot on mate 👍
Cheers for the feedback...
Good to know.
I'm saving for a 1299. 👍🏻
Killer bike and one I'd love to have a go on! Video looks great.
Not to bad on the gopro very good and I will be looking forward to the next vlog
Hi tmf, it good on the go pro and the sound was good and content was good and up date on your panagaly
Great video as usual TMF. The switch to the GoPro is noticeable but by no means takes away from the message or the enjoyment. Looking forward to some tour videos.
Peace!
Plenty more tours to come this year...stay tuned!
Camera fine. Gives a slight fish eye lens look outside of you. No prob at all.
Another canny vid.. I look forward to you posting them every week and the gopro did a canny job to !
Good video TMF the quality is good. The bike is also looking Good.
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.
The video quality was fine, as was the audio. I must say you do have an enviable collection of bikes!
Atb,
Ben.
Cheers Ben!
I like the new filming format, looks much better.
Brilliant - thanks Simon!
That motorbike (is fast) and very lovely, Please be at least safe on your travels. Cheers from 🇺🇸
Love your videos brother, great job. It
Thank you
Lovely bike and you are a lucky man. Have many safe miles with her. I am more of an I4 Jap bike guy, but I can see a Ducati's attraction.
I didn't notice it was a diffrent camera until you mention it. Looked dine to me. Good video as usual
Looked fine not dine, bloody autocorrect 😂
Awesome video thank you, was looking at getting an 848 evo but think I will save up for the 899.
Do they come with quickshifter etc
Smashing !!
GoPro quality was excellent, I didn’t notice the change in your filming until you mentioned it. 👍
Good news! Much easier for me filming on the GoPro....
Beautiful machine for sure! 😍
You do get a refund for the tax still left from the dvla 👍🏽 from the month you sell the bike
I didn’t realise that - thanks for putting me right!
Bob Powar Was just about to make this comment! Just they don't give partial month refunds only the nearest full one.
Only full months refunded though when that v5 hits the dvla desk
@@TheMissendenFlyer Bob's right, but you only get whole months refunded. So if you sold on 1st June, you get July onwards to end of 12 months.
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?!
🎥 Crisp focus, good colour & lighting.👍
I enjoyed mine on track, but once I got an R nineT, I stopped using the 899 for roads almost entirely and got rid of it shortly after. Hopefully the new owner is enjoying it more than I did.
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.
Nice one Stephen!
Totally get your love for this bike! It makes every ride out a special event, feel the same for my S1000R. even tho it makes me do more miles! LOL
Ah, lovely to see the Panigalina on your channel again. I've missed seeing it!
Video quality was top notch on the GoPro. As it is a lot easier, might be worth using it a bit more?
As always, great content TMF. See you on the next one!
Yeah it's way easier and less time consuming and I like the fact that picture moves around more (i.e isn't all static tripod stuff)....will defo use it more as not many people seem to mind!
I say use whatever camera ya want. Content is great either way. And the bike looks amazing👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
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!
you certainly love your San Pelegrino's, your Beck's too. Love them both too, in fact, Cheers!
One of those bikes that you get as much pleasure looking at it as you do riding it.. I have been known to sneak into the garage with a coffee and contemplate a ZX7R :)
Wow,engine sounds great,new mic ?more immersive 👍,wowza as iam writing this you've just said your using a new set up,yes defo
Honestly I didn't even notice the different camera until you pointed it out at the end, slight fisheye but looks fine.
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.
Agreed - way too fast for me!
For a 4 year old bike it looks absolutely brand spanking new! Well done on maintaining it! I hope one day I will own a Panigale 899/1199/1299. Hopefully before I get old and get a bad back and decide sportsbikes are not for me... :P
Cheers!
Sick bike!
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 :-)
What a beautiful bike TMF you must be so proud of owning it. I agree with you that the panigales are the best looking bikes around. I fancy a 959 panigale hopefully funds allow it next year. And like yours mine would be the garage Queen of my fleet.
Yes I do love it - itching to get out on her again....
@@TheMissendenFlyer the time will come. Stay safe till then and keep your excellent videos coming they're keeping a lot of people sane during these dark days 😂
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.
Wow what a bargain! Nice work and enjoy your new bike (even if it is only to look at!!)...
Another great video! Very informative.
Do you have any tips on cleaning the Termi’s?
Yours are in an immaculate condition with no exhaust spot staining. I’m in awe 👍
I don’t do anything special, normal washing and sometimes use tar remover (Autoglym) on them....
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.
Funnily enough I only took them out for the first time last week - it is now LOUD!!! Wouldn't get on a track day......
Careful, I saw your blur effect drop off of your speedo for a moment when you went over a bump. 71 never looked so good ;) great video,
- From the US
Hi TMF great bike they do look the business as far as the tax mate you get back every complete month left 👍, great quality video but a little bit fish eye I thought tbo keep em coming 👍👍
Nice update, lovely bike, I can completely understand why you will keep it, it's costing very little and it's totally different to anything else in the garage. So that for me makes it a toss up between the GS and the Street Triple to be moved on, with the GS probably favourite to go.
No way!!
How do you feel about the 959 compared to the 899? I'm looking at picking up a nice 2018 model with exhaust and some add-ons. Just wondering if it's too much bike. Love to hear your thoughts.
Basically the same bike with some tweaks - I prefer the exhaust and fairing on the 899....
No doubt the Panegali is a thing of beauty, love it. 😍💕
"Panigale" 👍🏻🙂, excuse me but it's hard enough to hear every time "Paenigaelei" (generally speaking, not in this video), at least when written it's good if it's spelled right
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😂😂
Please don't take it bad.
Peace
I’m so glad that you’re still enjoying your beautiful Ducati and keeping it 👌
Well after 4 years and I’ve just sold my 899 with 17K on the clock the trip to Ireland finished me off it was too painfully to ride after my 2nd shoulder op, I’ve got myself a hyperstrada for now which I’ll keep and hopefully get a 1299 next year to sit in the garage and look at.
Haha we should have you do a review you actually rode the thing! Good man.
I had my 899 for 4 years as well, and finally parted with it last November and replaced it with a GS Adventure. I don't regret it all, I just never got along with the bike.
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
No I do that to...and roll it out just for a look!
Good and good Andy
Gorgeous!! Thanks for the update on the Duc!! Have you tried the Q3+ Sport Max tires from Dunlop? I replaced the Corsa 2 on my 765 Street Triple and like them way more. I don’t know if they cost a premium in the U.K. but in the US I think they are the best road going sport tire made at the moment. Brilliant!!
No I haven't Ron but thanks for the recommendation!
TheMissendenFlyer For sure. Like I said I really don’t think them any better than the corsa 2. Those are properly great tires but the Dunlop’s are equally as great and they are less money and last longer. I myself, like you, am not as concerned about long life. I’ll take grip any day and the Dunlop’s are not a compromise at all. The really surprised me. They also have a W rating so you are good to go for the occasional track day. Thanks again for all the informative videos!!
Nice to see the Pani get an outing TMF. I noticed you still have the OEM foot pegs. I found them extremely slippy personally on my 1199 - they were changed for the 1299/959 models to much grippier versions. Oberon do a good aftermarket alternative - I'd recommend them as another cheap, effective modification for you!
Yes a few have mentioned that - I've never had an issue with the OEM pegs.......
I have to admit I never notice when someone uses a DSLR or a Gopro. But did think the imagine was very sharp
Lovely bike good to keep it that way. I wouldn't tour or use it in bad weather, not when you've got that old BM.
Great bike!
I liked the video quality on the gopro. Seems like more of the man cave in in view 👍
Hi TMF, After a little advise on the R&G clutch casing slider - currently looking at the one you have fitted along with a few others that look a little more substantial but do like the look of the half moon covering you have fitted. Not sure if you've had chance to test it but what are your thoughts on it - decent???
Yes I think it looks great - and I hope you don't mind but I'm not planning on testing it!!!
Nice review! Been looking at a 899 for a while now. Can't decide between one of these or a MV Agusta f3 800 🙃
Love your videos! Can I ask you does your rear shock spring rub up against the bit of black plastic that’s beside it. Not the shock protector the other side plastic that’s up the side of the bike and runs under the tail piece. Just noticed when cleaning my bike that mine is
No it doesn’t…
899 with a Termi exhaust is going to easy on the eye and music to the ears
The only difference with the change in camera is the slight fish eye effect on the peripherals.
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.
Andy 🏴
Cheers for the feedback Andy and thanks for watching!
Another great video, Thanks @themissendenflyer. Have you replaced your stockpiles of Old Speckled Hen with non alcoholic beer and lemonade?!
Well the stocks turn over every now and then - looking a bit sad at the moment I must say.....
Bit of a “fish eye” look with the GoPro sir. You can tune much of that out in settings by going to narrow view I believe. A large number of Panigale’s end up being “garage queens”, their just made for track or short canyon carving stints....I know as I have one myself. And why not if you can afford it and have alternative motorcycles? Good information and informative video.
Nice bike for sure. Image to me seems better with the DSLR, Gopro is good but image due to fish eye lense as always bit funny, you could get rid of that effect in post but why bother, the Gopro cam is very usefull in my opinion, been using it for years and still quite happy with it.
I heard those throttle spacers fit the new triumphs & thought of u. Have u fitted them to the Speed Twin yet? The Go Pro on selfie stick is fine 👍🏻
Out of interest, which insurance company do you currently use for the multibike policy??
I prefer the DSLR more than the go pro as far as video quality. But always enjoy the content. I think I remember the day you posted your review when the bike was new. Still good to hear what an awesone motorcycle it is. Dream bike for me...
Yes time flies doesn’t it it Erik!
TheMissendenFlyer All too fast! But wouldn’t miss it for the world. Haha
She's a beaut...always wanted one, but never quite been able to align want with money :-(. Nice to see that you have a proper man cave, bikes, tools and beer (1:18) kept in the same place...
Great video. If I could choose I’d go back to the slr rather than the GoPro for the garage stuff. Just my 2 pence.
Cheers Alex!
The 899 is looking good, the throttle spacer is a great mod :-)
Agreed!
Slowly but surely going crazy over this bike😂 I'll probably be looking to buy one in the next 6 months
Good plan!
It is a thing of absolute beauty. 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.
Concerning those parts you filmed using a different camera - it seems to me as if you had it set to something like 4:3 and let the picture stretch when editing them in. Apart from that great clip like always!
