I wonder what you think of your SSD thus far. Noticed anything interesting about it?
I've had my MHR six months now. Feels like nothing else. Amazing for it's age. Can't wait to get some decent rubber on the front.

Mr. MHR,
Look for tyre advice at the "Wheel, Brake& Tyre Shop" and than "Darmah Tyres" Topic on this board!

What I have found by owning a 1980 900 ssd is the amount of my friends who want to take it for a ride.They all come back with a smile on their face.A friend by the name of Brendon is still cursing the day he bought his new Ducati in 1980.As a result he is still married to the girl he took for a ride on it in 80 and now has 5 children,but not the bike.Mike
