Hi ALL!

My name is Cris, I'm Italian and I moved in Sydney at the end of 2005 (due to my job).
It was a while that I was thinking to buy a motorbike and so I finally decided to make a step and get it.
I'm now owning a new Ducati Monster 659 ABS 2012 since a couple of weeks and I couldn't be happier!!!
It's an easy ride but at the same time it delivers some challenges... there are so many things that I like about my Monster (engine, brakes, weigh, dashboard and more) and in the same time there is stuff that I really hate, like the hydraulic clutch (it take a bit to get used to) or the tank on my nuts every time I perform a firm stop , and so on...
But hey! Every relationship has up and down right? Overall it's a lot of fun and as my first bike I still have so much to learn.

I'm sure I'll get more and more from all of you expert bikers.

Cheers Cris...
