Red mirrors
 

any ideas where and how much to get some red mirrors to replace my original black 748 mirrors?

A

About £80 a pair new from a Ducati dealer

Or get the black ones painted for somewhat less???

I repainted mine. Plasi-kote (from halfords or B&Q) do a red which is a good match.

any idea what the actual colour or code of a red ducati is?

The PPG code is in the back of your owner manual, which any good paint merchant will be able to use to match some paint.

However, as Colin says the PlastiKote Bright Red #1120 is a very, very close match when used with their matching primer/undercoat and laquer....

cheers guys, im just in the process of doing mine so its off to halfordss tomorrow morning

thats whats so cool about this site, that you can always find what you want when you want it

Dya get a good finish with plastikote then ? Dropped my 888 against the wall and buggered the mirror up :(:(

..might have a crack myself.

Also I think Rich Llewellin (lougi moto) has just had some mirrors done professionally..his numbers 07775557797.

I stripped them down and used various grades of wet and dry to remove the flashings. I then used a spray plastic primer available from my local car parts shop. I then built the coats of the PlastiKote up. I didn't bother with a laquer but this would produce an even better result I'm sure.

Italia Moto in Lincoln do an exchange service. You take your black ones in, chuck 'em a few quid and walk out with a couple of shiney red or yellow ones. Done deal.
