Title: Hey all...
Post by: 916_tommy_s4 on September 08, 2009, 09:49:05 PM
Greetings everyone, Ive been lurking these boards for a while now(12 months or so) before i got my own(03my s4, 916) looking a what you monster owners(and lovers) have to say on all things Duc's. It's been most helpful and whats more entertaining. Which is more important to me.

The s4 is my first bike, and I love the thing, and no, I haven't killed myself, or anything else. Just love the feeling of riding my beautiful Italian toy up the twisty hills near my place of residence in Brisbane Australia. Hopefully I can contribute more than just statistics to this forum and I also hope that Ill be able to call on the wealth of knowledge on how to maintain, modify, and source bits for my monster(This last statement, chasing parts, is what finally prompted me to join up).

Anyways its good to finally contribute, cheers.

Tommy.

Welcome Tommy, congrats on the S4, glad you finally checked in with us. [thumbsup]

Make sure you go over and introduce yourself in Oz Monsters (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?board=52.0) as well.

Since you've been lurking you know we love bike pictures so I hope you have some to share! ;)

Have fun, ride safe. [moto]

  Thanks for the swift/prompt reply somegirl, and cheers for the welcome, I appreciate it. This place seems like a great community and I can use all the help I can get!

  I'll be sure and mosey over to the Oz monsters sections, and once I get my feeble brain around pic-posting Ill be sure and post some as well. However, knowing how stock monsters can be looked upon sometimes in this site, I'm a bit dubious. My s4 has been modded to be a go-pony, not a show pony, but none-the-less Ill be sure and get some eye-candy up.

Tommy.

No worries, there have even been contests here as to who has the most stock bike! [cheeky]

I can't claim my bike is totally stock (I've done a few functional mods) but I do still have my fork reflectors and have no intention of chopping my tail. ;D

Here's the photo posting FAQ (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=109.0), feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Hah, well done on still having the reflectors! Mine hasn't got em on any more, but I still have the beer tray! Its got the usual 3k worth of carbon bits stuck on it, but other than that its stocko s4 all the way. I actually like the bikini fairing on it as well, don't know how much trouble Ill get in for leaving it on my nekkid bike... Ill get over it I'm sure.
