Hello from Houston, Tx. I am coming over from a 748 enjoy my new beauty.

Welcome and enjoy you're upgrade!

What kind of grips did you buy for it?

Glad to have another owner in the red corner ;-)

Welcome to the forum and your 959 is a beauty. Have you ridden it yet?

I've had her for about three weeks, about to hit my 600 mile mark.

Some universal grips off of Ebay. I had the same on my 748 and they are more comfortable than the stock ones. :smile2:

Welcome to the forums!

Do you happen to have a link to the grips or post some more pics of yours? I'm considering on getting some, just curious about yours.

They are worlds apart. I love the 959 but I do find myself missing that old Ducati feel sometimes.

Here are some pictures of the 748, same grips I put on the 959 but different colors.

I had a 2001 748S in yellow. Nice to look at, but after a few runs on the 959 you'll forget all about it! lol! I know what you mean about the classic feel though. My 2001 S4 has the old 916 super bike motor in it. Definitely a different beast.
