New tachometer from Shires Ducati. Indicators under tail unit.
THE FOLLOWING SHOTS ARE OF THE BIKE IN ITS PRESENT GUISE. LATEST ADDITIONS ARE CARBON REAR SEAT UNIT, CARBON SIDE PANELS, ROAD RACING ELECTRONIC TACHOMETER AND APRILIA SOURCED FLYSCREEN. STILL AWAITING A NEW TANK TO FINISH THE AESTHETIC DESIGN OF THE BIKE.
These final shots of the bike are likely to be the way the bike stays now (except for some polishing). I am finally happy with the appearance of the machine, the aluminium tank finishes it off nicely. Clutch and belt covers are now carbon fibre items.Note how much the tank is cut to follow the seat lines and expose more of the engine.
MAJOR THANKS TO DAMON AT SHIRES DUCATI FOR SOURCING THE ROAD- RACING EXHAUST PIPES AT SUCH SHORT NOTICE. ( less than 5 days to get them from Italy to my bike in time to ride it to the Isle of Man for the TT ).
Ground clearance is not normally a problem as the pegs and gear/brake levers touch first. However my bike is using footrest hangers from a superlight/ss and raises them clear (no pillion pegs here) it does however allow the pipes to touch down before anything else. In truth there IS nothing else to touch down.
