Same here. All I get is RIDES MAGAZINE.
Music people posing in front of there whips (cars).

Hahaha, I got that one too.  It was my second result.  The first one was some horse site. 

Did you get a copy of the June-July RobbReport MotorCycling issus ? They featured a Desmosedici and a 1098R on the cover w/ a great article of 2 riders riding them and then trading places on a track at a private track in the States. Plus lots of other neat bikes from the latest brand offerings to some really exotic customs.

here it is lads, but it won't help....they are British (that means about 5 years behind most US sites) so it won't have the Ducati article, it's a good magazine and a below average internet site

Thanks Spider.  You're right no Ducati article.  Here's a list of all the Duc articles they've done:

Edit:  I just emailed their "contact us" email to see if I can get an electronic copy of the article.  If I have any success I'll post it up.

That 916 used to belong to me!
What I find a bit disappointing about the article on it though is that when I passed it on ,it was all there with no missing bits (rubbers or pillion pegs etc.) and had a complete service history and in the space of one owner has become a mystery, as are the 'uprated forks' the standard ones had uprated internals and were superb and yet someone needlessly replaces them, for what purpose?
Meh! no accounting for some people though.

hey, that 916 was mind-blowing - the part about the tank and the 'painters' signature - the idea that every tank was painted by the same bloke in that year! amazing.

You had a great bike - obviously sold it to someone who didn't appreciate it!

So I finally scanned it.  Initially I did it as PDF, but tinypic doesn't support PDF.  It's not the best quality, and not in color, but here goes.  I tried loading as one long message, but kept "failing"

It looks like you can't read from screen, but if you "right click, and print it", comes out pretty good...

If anyone knows of any legal/copyright issues with scanning & posting this, please let me know, and I will remove.
