    Very soon.

    1000rrmembersandducatiowners.co.uk.

    If it goes well I will think about integrating an R1 forum with it.

    I also bought the domain 1000rrmembersandducatiownerswithYamahaR1.co.uk

    I admit the sticker will be quite big for this one. Would members mind having a Ducati and Yamaha logo on their bike?

    Rob.

    Im not really happy with it but thats probably just the british mentality to change. As long as both of us can mix well im sure it will only make it bigger and better and as already said just think of the group buys as we know how much money those ducati owners have:)

    will it start as a blank forum or will all previous threads still be on it

    and yes i would mind having a ducati and yamaha sticker. i dont see ducati owners having a honda sticker on their bike haha

    I've not told the Ducati forum yet. It's a surprise for them.

    Fez, think of how unique it will be.

    I'm going to have a mirrored sticker too like the fire engines so people will be able to read it in their rear view mirror.

    I couldn't give a flying fcuk tbh.... As although the wealth of knowledge is great on here, I come on for the banter, the crack and great bunch of lads we have which leads to decent ride outs, track days and social like le touquey etc, all of which I'm sure will be on the new site


    However for our little community I think it's a terrible idea. I honestly believe that many will feel alienated by the pesky Italians talking about how good their new Panigale is etc that we will loose some cracking fellas which will be a shame.

    If your going to make it a non-focused one bike site, why not open to all, I know (as does everyone) loads of lads that would join, could have massive attraction for banter, group buys and get together without the us and them divide

    It's amazing how many people read the opening thread then reply before studying the developments lol, I have been guilty of this more than once.

    It's funny when your catching up with a thread then all of a sudden you get a random post mid conversation lol
