Default Announcement : Desmosedici Riders Club is officially created

3 French Desmosedici RR owners, including myself, have created the "Desmosedici Riders Club", open to all Desmosedici RR owners around the world, with a focus on Western Europe for the beginning. We already have some future members in California

Our idea with this official DOC Club, supported by Ducati France, is to share experience an good deals (like group buying for race fairings, tyres etc) as well as to organize trackdays or road trips.

If you own and ride a Desmosedici RR, feel free to join us and contact me!

PS : my Desmosedici RR, know as the most used on Earth, has now 10 500 km, first service at 12 000 km within 6-8 weeks !

Totally off topic but I have a quick question for you Desmosedici owners in France: I thought motorcycles in France were restrictd to 100 hp? How do you get around that - pull the spark plug leads off two cylinders?

Thanks and apologies for the partial thread hi-jack.

A piece of metal limits the rotation of the throttle to 1/4 turn.

Piece removed in 5 minutes during bike set-up

nice to hear about the site and nice to hear about you riding it instead of looking at it
