Don is one of my absolute favourite motorcycle reviewers. I rewatch all his reviews here on RUclips every few months. When I watch them I feel that I am in the company of someone who really appreciates great motorcycles. Thank you for these wonderful reviews.
This is all very true. I got the opportunity in 2003 to rent one in Italy and ride from Rome to Monaco France and back I'm 6 ft tall and I felt like I was riding a dirt bike the whole time it was so much fun. So much fun I ended up buying a 2000 900ie. In typical Ducati standards it has eaten up my third battery and a starter. No worries though I love the bike and plan on many years of fun to come
Brilliant video reviews! This gentleman, Don Hall, must be one of the best reviewers I have ever seen. I keep watching and enjoying the videos over and over again. Where can I find other reviews or information about him? Internet search seems to return no results about him.
First if all my million likes to the hoxton videos of classic bikes...and the commentary man...I like all the classic bike videos and his way of speech...easy to understand and humble... Please add more videos about benelli,triumph ,laverda etc....
The cylinders are indeed 90 degrees apart but the cam drives aren't; the cams are driven by timing belts and the belts' drive pulley is offset from the crank. This makes the covers for the timing belts have an angle over 90 degrees.
I bought one because of this review brilliant........

I keep coming back to this review, and to Don's other reviews. If only there were more of them.

I like this guy, is there anything he hasn't riden?
Yes. A chopper. His face used to go red at the mention of the word. Hilarious. I liked him too, we all did.
Great and rare accent! : )
A documentary i saw said ducati were in serious financial distress, and the monster was a parts bin bike that saved the company. Nice bike though.
I hope I can look after myself when I am his age, never mind ride a bike.

Thanks for your comments. Very sadly Don (commentary man) is no longer with us - greatly missed.
That is very unfortunate. He seemed in excellent health.
Perfectly done review. Excellent.
Glad you liked it!
absolutely. i started on a 620
We filmed the riding shots around the Aylesbury area.
Where were these videos filmed? The countryside looks as beautiful as the motorcycles reviewed.
Don, please review a BMW airhead!
That's 60-70 miles NW of London, for you Americans.
Why does the engine look a bit over 90 degrees?
The cylinders are indeed 90 degrees apart but the cam drives aren't; the cams are driven by timing belts and the belts' drive pulley is offset from the crank. This makes the covers for the timing belts have an angle over 90 degrees.
what exhaust it is?sound great.
i have this machine
Ducati Hamster
Hahaha

What an abomination of a bike
