After selling my GSXR 600 K5 last year i couldnt resist buying this.
1 week old only 150 miles so far ( to much rain up here).

Sweet! Enjoy.

And another one

I think there are three of us on here now with 899s! Almost need an owners thread

Looks 100% stock? Any bits planned?

Nothing planned just the rear seat cover on order. how long you had yours?.

About 5 weeks, done just under 800 miles so far.

I have done a few things as I like to tinker

I found the stock foot pegs pretty slippery, especially when they get a bit wet. So those and a evotech tail tidy were the first things I changed.

On order? Not as good as us, we keep them in stock as most 899 buyers want one

It is a nice bike though not one I'd ever have as I'm far too big.

i looked up a test ride on one of these at Wolverhampton ducati,till i saw that they charge you £30 if you don't agree to buy it (cheek of it)

need a ton of proof aswell

That's mental. I test rode an 1199 and S100RR back to back and walked away. Didn't have to pay a penny for it!

I'd have booked a ride on one otherwise,
