On thaqt theory why have we even bothered to have Ducatis? A 999 is a cheap 999s is a cheap 999r is a cheap bsb spec is a cheap wsb spec.............. I think a carbon air box is the biz, a pair od imitation covers are........imitation covers. What purpose do they serve? At least my crappy 999r std ohlins are a bit lower down the scale.......and any way i agree, so lets have 25mm inserts upgrade fitted....... |
I think they are quite a good idea. but price as with everything is the key. I already have a full carbon air box but would still consider them, as a way of making it up to the moor modern quick release side panel model |
I think for us on a budget they offer a chance to have a high spec look for a fraction (hopefully) of the price. If they turn out to only be a bit less then the cost of a full airbox then there is no point is there. |
Agreed |
For the same reason we have white number boards on the front or back......... No purpose, but to look nice. Just my 2-pence worth Jas |
ok boys;) Well the reasone behind these for me anyway is this! Firstly . i do have a carbon Airbox and in truth it Gains me Jack ****! I have weighed both carbon and standard boxes and there is not a nats cock in it:D when a bike /car/lorry is made the manufacturer spends millions on Reasearch and development,and to this end normaly comes out with somthing that is "A" durable,"B" cost efective and so on:D so we then find the need to throw away this wealth of knowledge and replace it with what is no more in (ROAD) terms than a piece of cosmetic junk:D wich usualy cost's in this case (CARBON AIRBOX) £350.00 ish so my idea was simply to make for (myself) and trading of the back of all the reasearch and developmentFrom ducati!!! a substitute , cosmetic part that will still give you the look of a full carbon air box(And beleive me it does) for a fraction of the price of a full carbon airbox!;) But i can tell you for a fact if ducati came up with the idea then most of you would be floking to the shop to buy them!!!!!:lol::lol: just my opinion:smug: ps i'm on a budget and i know a lot of the guys on here are to!! |
Any closer to a price Mav? |
.. and PS, everyone is on a budget! Just some are bigger than others ;) |
I like them and will have some if the price is right! |
sorry mate......tacky. |
