Mr Rob Ward took delivery of his H.M.R Ducati today, resplendent in black duco amid a sea of polished billet, thudding its way out of H.M..R's driveway.

The Duke has been undergoing a complete re-build here at H.M.R. and a total re-design.

We would like to thank Rob for giving us the oppertunity to build the machine he wanted, our reward is to see him and his Ducati thudd off into the hills for its first big run in the hands of its owner.

You will be able to see the Duke in far greater detail in an upcoming issue of Performance Streetbike. Taking part in a 5 hour photo session last weekend for Performance Streetbike the machine was givien its first chance to show its capabilities. A very capable performance by all accounts.

See you at the cafe Rob, for the second H.M.R ride day, first Sunday of the month.
