I love that Duke. I'm tempted to buy a 916 because they're going cheap at the moment and in years to come they'll be silly money like the 851's, but if you ride them they have to have the cam belts changed every 6 months according to one Duke expert here in Melbourne, and that concerns me as it costs 750 bucks every time they change the belts......... ;D

no they are not that bad , ducati say change them every 2 years or 15 thousand miles and they are very straightforward to do . they take about 40 min from start to finnish , wish i could charge 750 for doing them !

simon as you well know there is no such thing as a nice xv750 yamaha .

Is that right mate? Well if so, I'm gonna buy one, then go on a crash diet so I look good riding it! Cheers, Terry. ;D

Gee...I don't know Uncle Tez.
I think your more a "Wang" man than a "Dead Cat" man.

Cheers,

Ha ha, probably right Brian, I've only owned one Duke (Bevel Drive 900SS) and it was the biggest pig I've ever owned, but I'm prepared to forgive, even if I'll never forget what a pile they were............. ;D 
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

If you're bothered about looking good Terry, you'd better invest in a dark visor too! :D

Hey I don't want to start a "Who's the best looking SOHCer" thread mate, but just a little intel for you, you wouldn't crawl over me to get to Brian.............. ;D

 If he did, he would need 200 meters of rope,  climbing boots and a Sherpa guide.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Cheers,
