Hi everyone,

my name is Jo, and I recently bought a Desmosedici No. 766/1500 with just 1.200km. I life in beautiful Austria, approx. 100km west of our capital Vienna. I have been riding bikes for more then 25 years (OMG, getting old :toothless ), starting with several Honda's in the 90's and early 00's (CBR's 600/900/954, NC30, RC45) I moved to Ducati in 2006. Since then I have been riding several Duc's, the latest one was a Panigale Trico. This bike I bought only because I couldn't find a proper Desmosedici @ that time. Don't take me wrong, the Pane is an excellent bike, but it is missing thr aura, the Sedici has. I don't care if the BMW's are faster on the track, or the Aprilia V4 is smoother to handle. For me, the D16 is THE Goddess, the Masterpiece, the bike all other's have to look up. Beside the Sedici, I enjoy driving my Lotus Esprit GT3 and some other sportscars. So, looking forward getting in touch with other Ducatista here and wish you an excellent day! Jo

Thanks, folks

Thanks for the very kind welcome. So, finally I shall get my bike this Thursday. Can't wait to have it in my garage. You wouldn't believe, but I never heard any Desmo live. The day I bought 0766, the battery was down.

Honestly I don't know how many Sedici run in AT, but I know @ least two which are regular on the F1 Red bull circuit.

Reading more and more about the bike, can you guys pls advise me how to make an already very good bike even better.

I took with me a 17 inch rear wheel and the dyno tune. With Thorsten Durbahn I am currently negotiating on a brand new GP7 Termignoni system. Not sure if he will sell it to me, but how much would you pay for it?
What about carbon gadgets, etc.

Thanks in advance for your answers and all the best from rainy Austria.

Jo

PS.: Here are some photos of the bike. Still very standard.

@Ducducgop
Are you from Ranshofen? Indeed, a very nice area there. Innviertel.
Did you see the bike @ the dealer? I bought it from Ducati Salzburg, Heribert Braunbart. All the best! Jo

@ Maxsam

tx for feedback on the GP 7. Will try 2 grab one.

As for riding on the Red Bull circuit. Yes, it is possible to have track days there. I was this spring with my RS there. The circuit is amazing. So, if you guys'd be interested, I can ask a friend of mine on the details.

Take care!

Jo
