    Keep riding.

    Ohhh... I guess that part was mentioned in my Tourer section write up...sorry about that...well there was oil seal change carried out by the Ducati Pune guys just before my trip back to Noida...and they kind of messed it up...so much so that the front used to dip a lot on applying the front brakes...was not pleased by that at all but continued on my journey and discussed with AMP Gurgaon about this...they have been trying to find a solution to it and now have decided to change the complete assembly....

I was pretty much certain this was going to happen...but the guys here at AMP superbikes GGN have assured me it will be done under warranty. Even though I am upset I would first want to get the machine in perfect condition...really impressed with the service team in GGN...taking the bike in on 23rd for the job...
          Thank you GT. Do keep your observations posted.

          Cheers!

          Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
          The girl said, 'NO!'


          And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


          THE END

            I checked it out.. great innovation... i am planning to order it..

            but my questions are since the cost is 1.2L for the helmet along with DAY/NIGHT visor, there might be additional import duty once the product is being shipped, do u think its worth it?? have you paid the full amount or u have paid only part and remaining during shipping?? and one additional option is missing, a front camera with recording to a microSD card would complete the package. but thats upto their development team

                Hello...indeed a great way forward in terms of helmet innovation...i have presently only paid part of the amount and rest to be paid when shipped...as for the price, there is nothing like it in the market at present, hence I am quite certain it is on the higher side...and about its worth, I do hope it is...!!!

                  Update on the suspension issue...visited the AMP GGN dealership yesterday and got the CF parts and the frame slider installed...also front brake pads were renewed. Zeeshan, my fellow Ducatisti friend had the bike checked out at the dealership a few days ago and the suspension works like it is supposed to now...I rode the bike in Sports mode and it completely transformed into the beast it is known to be...even after 7500kms under the belt I was taken aback by the ferocity with which it roared ahead....in any gear...much much smoother than any other riding modes...Sports mode it is from now on...
