Last ride of the season

After only 23 years my F1 is rolling again! Have had it out for a couple of short spins and it works surprisingly well! :-)

Today was a fine autumn day which probably offered the last ride of this year. Passed by the Ducati Stockholm store and realized (again) that I do not like wings on motorcycles... The new Supermono is the only 2024 Ducati I can consider.

Well, that turned out nice then; the bike and the ride. And I see a winter project in the background. MikeV

Yes, indeed it did!
Remember, winters are long here and they return with high frequency (like the storms in Florida), so it IS a winter project, but undefined which winter...

Looks like a nice winter project hiding behind your f1!
We need to see more !!

Good morning, I would take a ride on the left-hand motorbike! :lol:

Or, the one on the right.

Thanks again Bjorn for the many photos you posted in the past.

I think I would take the one on the right as well... :-)

Carlo, explain why there is Showa suspension on the bike on the left! (To be honest I cant even say which model it is)
And post some more images of the new Moretti aluminum framed bikes!

I was afraid that after riding modern, small and nimble racers the last years, and not having ridden the F1 for 20 years, it would feel aging, unprecise and awkward. Old, like. But it is not! It is impressingly sharp, direct and well-handling! Just as racy today as it was in 1985! Great feeling! :-)
