Title: A Solution
Post by: rendang on October 07, 2011, 09:17:13 PM

    At long last, someone has a solution to the short fuel range problem of the 4 valvers.

    Hey Brian, what a great idea, you could ride all the way to PI without any stops, as your fuel stops become "comfort stops" and you take them on the move !    [laugh]     [laugh]     [laugh]
    (not trying to single you out, or say that your full of it or anything, but just as an example you know?)  ;D

Of more interest was an article attached to the linked page above, entitled:

"Ducati bets the farm on its hugely unsuccessful new frame design for new Panigale 1199 V-twin"

I don't think they took that from the Ducati press release. Link to the article:
http://www.gizmag.com/ducati--new-frame-design-panigale-1199/19990/ (http://www.gizmag.com/ducati--new-frame-design-panigale-1199/19990/)

Although the article could have been written by Casey's PR mob [laugh] and deservedly so too [cheeky] ;D

Dear me Brian that is so last month's footage, how about another weekender so you can get something a bit more up to date ?

That is a good article and it could have been written by Casey's PR team, but it all rings so true, so painfully true.
