Hi from Athens, Greece

[Doc]

Hello everyone,

New here, registered a couple of days ago. I'm desperatly in love with the 1098 and I'm looking forward to get one (probably later next year though...)

I'm in Athens, Greece and I've been riding a Multistrada for the last 3-4 years until last month when I wrecked it (a car hit me after he passed a red traffic light :mad ) and the frame broke... :( Did almost 70000km with it and a few trackdays too (had it equiped with a full Ohlins front fork and a rear Penske racing shock), the Multi was great and had no problems at all. Good bike.

Anyway, just wanted to say hi and looking forward toi contribute to this great forum.

Cheers,

Doc

Yeap, I'm fine:). I was on my way back from work but fortunately I was (as always) wearing full gear (except for pants) and that saved me.

Thanks again for thw welcome :beer

Welcome to the forum. I was in Athens in the 90's. With the amount of traffic, I would be terrified to drive a bus there let alone a motorcycle. Glad you were not seriously injured.

Hope you get your 1098 sooner than later!
Cheers.
