Hello everybody :)

Last week I got my first Ducati: Monster 750, 1999 model.


I started riding 21 years ago with 125cc Yamaha TZR and continued for a while with 250cc TZR. Both light and nimble two-strokers. Since then I've stayed inside cars for many years. But the spark was left...

I wanted to experience something similar, light and easy to drive. So my hunt for a Monster begun. Not impressed with domestic prices I was originally planning to import one from Germany or Estonia (save around 1k EUR) but few days ago one was put for sale with an interesting price. I went to look for it and after a short conversation price was at the same level as those german ones I had my eye on.

This isn't a perfect one but it runs well. Previous owner is a car mechanic and has serviced bike well (one more reason to choose this one). On the outside bike has seen life, little scratches here and there and apparently it has been crashed at some point of it's life. Just like the current owner, me.  Lucky for me the bike can still be fixed with time.
