You'd need to call them, the site is just a hint of what they do. You couldn't put every product on a site, I'd advise anyone to go and look at the stuff that John/Ducati Coventry sell, might be wise not to take your credit card with you though (Sorry John!) As for my bike, no news, should be ready for the 9th April from what I am told, last I heard they were going down the coils route, I hope it's that otherwise it'll be another trackday missed and more money down the drain for sitting there watching the world go by |

Yes JPM, but i need a site where i can easly buy online because i'm in Portugal. As for your bike...... that sucks. I really hope you can have her ready for the next TD. I've lost 3 trackdays in a row once because of an R6 i had that always "blew up" after 3 laps. :mad: |
Can't you get huggers in Portugal then? If you're going to order one from the UK I wouldn't go ordering one from Casoli, as has been seen in the last few weeks they don't seem too hot on on-line orders, but great and helpful if you go down to the store. Ring JHP, speak to Dave in parts, it'll be in the post today if you're quick and be there for the weekend hopefully. I'm hoping you've got the correct paddock stand and bobbins as you will probably need to remove the rear wheel to fit the hugger, you can do it with the wheel still in place but far easier without it.

I guess i can, but i'm not sure where. And i'll probably have to wait some time for it. But i'll try to inform myself here. (sometimes it's cheaper to order from abroad) Wow, really? That sucks :( Hell i wasn't expecting to have to remove the rear wheel for that. Does That happen with all the rear huggers or just with some kind? Anyway, thanks for the advice. |
Some dont, but be carefull, the one I ordered from Streamline Carbon didnt have the bolts with it (and there were none on the bike, just little plastic clips) so I had to go get some. Standard stuff, just a bit more hassle. Took me about 5 mins to fit with wheel still on and on sidestand. Again though, not as nice as some of the casoli or duke ones |
Basically the hugger on the 04 999R swingarm/ 05 swingarm uses existing bolts, chainguard and rear brake line, the problem arises as the hugger fits inside of the swingarm on the r/h side where the brake line runs, so you need to unscrew the brake line which as you will find out the bolt is about 1 inch if that from the rear tyre, so trying to get an allen key in there is tight for use of a better word |
must be different on the 749...I'll get me coat... |
If it is like the 05 999 swingarm, you need to grind an allen key or take the wheel down as JPM was suggesting... and by the way!! there is a little plug on the swingarm to be removed on the side of the second bolt on the brake line..(Thanks message board..I was taking my hugger back to Italy as I though it didn't fit!!!) |
Thanks for the info, guys. |
