I must be mad, freezing cold and I'm messing with Ducati electrics in my garage.

What's the last job you did on your bike?

Just recently had a new concrete sectional garage. Been busy up there sorting bench, shelving, tools etc, but it's so cold in there, plus I'm getting condensation settling on the Blade and the GS1200.

Wish I'd have chosen a timber garage now.

Insulate the walls with some Double foil insulation. Its what they us on camper vans so wont be difficult to install. Will also make it a little warmer as the concrete will act like a fridge

Not a V4 but I've been looking at 1200 Capos. Thinking of selling one of my Ducs.

Saying that I've been looking at the Multistrada V4 too.

All depends on the price I'll get for my 1250GS

I have switched the radiators back on in my garage, switched them off 2 years ago when our heating system was playing up. Found out what the problem was in January, actuator motor was faulty. New one bought for £10 so at the weekend decided it was time to try the radiators. All working fine so now have a bottle of gas for my heater for future emergencies. Happy days

A65 Thunderbolt

Nice! I had two A65s in the 70s. The good one was my daily transport for four years until it went bang!"

I had one back in the mid 70's as an apprentice, bodged it to keep it running until I got on better money then sold it
