Good to see Exige's old Suzuki in action for once.

Sadly selling Sally`s Suzuki . Loving the alliteration , aren`t you ?
She has owned it for 2.5 years but only ridden about 300 miles in that time and likely to use it even less as she has just bought herself a horse . It is a 2013 bike on just under 33k miles, Sally is the 4th owner and it has a FSH including a valve check 300 miles ago when she bought it. MOT to July and HPI clear .
It is a standard bike apart from the screen, hand guards and tank pad. We have 2 keys, the V5, the owners manual and the service book all in the original Suzuki pouch.
As far as I am aware its all good mechanically and pretty good cosmetically for age & mileage.
I have probably ridden half of the 300 miles its covered in the last 2.5 years and I have to say that while it wont blow you away performance wise it has about the same BHP as a bevel 900ss which is the bike I grew up lusting after . Unlike an old bevel it is quite enjoyable in a totally non threatening way and quite comfy too. Sally is about 5`5" and she has found it easy to get her feet down and manoeuvre the bike around. I think these can be restricted to 47bhp so learner friendly too.
Here is a review from MCN and below some pics. I appreciate its unlikely to sell on a Ducati forum some of you may know someone it suits so please get in touch with any questions etc. I`ll stick it on Ebay or Autotrader in a couple of weeks if its still around.

If I knew there was going to be a test, I would have revised.

not really, who am I kidding. I never revised!

Just to add some clarity to this thread....

Moldova’s President Sandu tightens grip on power, as the country is being drawn into the maelstrom of the NATO-Russia war

Moldova is in the grips of a severe political crisis as its government prepares to drag it into the NATO war against Russia.

OMG Loz you are so right. I've been so selfish only thinking of me me me and never thinking of that poor unloved Futura. I shall embark on a period of self flagellation at once and then go on a course so I can never be accused of being Apriliaist in future.

I've set myself a strict maximum on the Benelli so will update later this weekend.

You see, this is what annoys me. Place the word stem "futur-" into a context and people are immediately afraid of it. The are afraid of the future and of change. They want old things, out-moded things, things that have been hanging around far too long. Even the presence of the word "futura" puts these people off.

Take the Houses of Parliament, for instance:

People cling to the idea of this place. Useless structure, entirely unsuited to its current function.
Level it.

Replace it with something like the following. Modern, functional, fit for purpose:

You know I'm right.

Thank you all for your input, I didn’t get a single reply on DF

Ducati France?

You think we have lost people because there isn't enough conspiracy theory posts or too many?

You should blame the government……













I do.

what an ideal time for a cigarette. If only I smoked.

Fear not, I had one for you.

“Martin added that we'd have to see wholesale prices drop even more to reap substantial benefits on household energy bills.”

If they drop much more they’ll be giving it away and the suppliers will still charge consumers a fucking fortune.

In short, Ofgem is a waste of space and all they’re doing is protecting company profits.

Twats.

Wankers.

Guinnesss.

Thanks for the link anyway, I must say that’s probably the crapest website on the web.

Just to tell you what you already know:

OfGem protects energy firms, not energy customers/victims

OfCom protects MSM, not consumers/victims of the MSM

OfFuck protects organisations I sincerely wish would fuck off, which is all of them

Maybe it’s a British thing.
Have a meeting about it.
Form a committee to solve the problem.
Employ a consultant (friend / relative / donor) to sort it out.
Get nowhere.

It's more pernicious and corrupt than that, Alan!

Do you think so, I think it’s simply that managers / politicians etc think they’re smarter than everyone else and no one realises what they’re doing.

I cannot believe that you of all people have fallen for the shell-game that is modern politics.

yeah, it’s not going to change though, unless, maybe, enough of them slip up and reveal there is no pea.

I’m hoping enough people start to wonder why, if neoliberalism / capitalism or whatever is so great, why do poor people have to keep bailing out the rich people.

I'm hoping enough people start to able to find their own arsehole with either hand. Preferably whilst clutching a sheet of toilet paper.

Don’t get me started.

To replace the EU ones ?


Oh. No. Wait. They’ve decided to keep them after all, too much effort otherwise.
