You can get the after market one's fitted which do not need the mounting point on the frame, yellow is right they do not come with one as standard sadly.

Welcome to the club matey, all the best with your new bike and ride safe....

Thanks Scotty!
But how to fit the damper without mounting point on the frame? appreciate yr next advise. Cause I saw in internet some of the darks come with the mounting (if I'm not mistaken US version) and some don't. I don't wether my dark will come with the mounting or not.

PS: by the way, does anyone know how much bhp of the dark? Sorry if already discussed.

TIA (thanks in advance)

108 BHP for 2005.

I should try to get to Indonesia and get a guided tour of the roads!!
Cheers

108 is for bhp or hp?
Ducati.com stated 108hp at 10,000rpm, not bhp.

Whenever u want to go to Indonesia, drop me an email.
