Sitting in my car yesterday at the lights I spied a 999comming toward me, quickly I turned the CD player down while I fumbled for the buttons to lower the driverside windows in anticipation of the Ducati rumble as it sailed by me. How dissapionting to hear this Ducati give off a faint burble that would be no louder than than a soft breeze in the trees. Definately not a patch on the Staintuned Paso & I am pretty sure it was Termi equipped. I felt so let down I just wound the windows up & turned the "Talking Heads" CD back on. "Same as it ever was, same as it ever was..." :umm: |

Same thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago Red, a 999 went through an intersection I was waiting at, also in my car. He had to make a tight turn in this intersection, and he did it with style, fast and smooth. I also thought it was very quiet, but I thought it sounded good, and it seemed to be pulling very smoothly at low revs. |

sounded good just way to soft. I have seen this 999 a few times of late & assume it is a new one in town. There is another that I can hear from a long way off so I can get to the Balcony to see it go past the office, it sounds awesome so I guess in comparison this one was a real let down. Good to SEE them on the raod anyway :thumbup: |

Hey Faster, next time there's a good day in a warm place not too far away, and if you can spare the time, catch a quick flight there and hire a bike for a few hours! |

Same here, faster. Although last week I took a five mile round trip to the gas station for a fill-up :screwy: . Snow was all around me, but the roads were dry. Damn cold on the neck though. I think I'll wait until it warms up to go out again. Regards, B |
