Triumph rocket vid.
Brilliant, just picked myself up off the floor

Thanks for posting the link, very interesting.

Had a tour around the Triumph factory a while ago [purely in the interests of science you understand] and the build methods appear pretty similar.

My Multi was ex-demo with 700 miles on. Having previously bought brand new I was a little trepidatious, especially given the rumored Italian histrionics. There was a good saving against cost new and given the warranty was there as a back-up I took the plunge.

Three years on I haven't looked back ...

Oops! Must have been thinking of Good ol' Boy Twotone, not Sydney Twotone
I'm sure he knows where he lives anyhow. Thank god it's Friday!

PS Hope your Arrow gets fixed soon

Here is a response, albeit late! There are 2 used low screens [2003 my] available on ebay for £10 each +p&p from CMW Ducati dealers in Sussex. Item number is 310103615426.

At that price even shipping to the US may be worthwhile?

I came to the Multistrada from a VFR, albeit a V-Tech, and I went for the 620. I'd always admired the Multi from a design point so was half-way sold, an extended test ride convinced me.

The V-Tech was way too complicated for it's own good [in my opinion] so, at the time, reasoning I didn't need ...

Yes, me too Been looking for one for ages, damn
