They look great and the sound well say no more!:bouncy:

Looks really good can you explain a bit more exactly wots been done to your 749r and most importantly the cost im not really in a position at the mo to spend 2k plus on a full termi system but really want some sonic boom from my 749r. Also is the bike still running on the same ecu?

Pedro, you should have covered the number plate up..........

i'm in the same position with my 749r, some hopefully somebody will spill the details of the lower cost termi options

i bought the termi box,(part num 96112403b ) the heat shield to fit it as the standard one wont,high-efficienct air filters, then a TOP CHAP FROM THE SITE (scotty) de-catted my down pipe. the bike hasnt had a ecu change,it runs better than before as it "cut-out" with the standard set up. a power comander can be used if you want,£250? i bought the termis from ducati leeds,however ducati glasgow are well up to speed on this system & can give you advice as they did with me.ive know of a number of 749r bikes that run this way with NO problems at all.the bike is now cat free as the termi hasnt got one in side it..cost.........£675 inc p&p. i got discount from leeds as i purchased my 749 from.:bouncy:

Thanks pedro really appreciate that info mate i think thats the route ill be going down i have spoken to the guy up in scotland who cuts the cat out and he was just as helpfull so again cheers guys ;)

had a quick blast down the 444 this afternoon testing my termis,they sound great,the bike seems to run better cat free,it faster i think;) hard to say though as it seems like a rocket as im in my van all week:puzzled:. the tick-over still cuts out now & again,much less than with stock pipes

I bought the full 749R Termi kit from my local dealer, got it for £800 all in including the ecu.
I do not know if it is just me but this exhaust seems MUCH louder than the similar kit fitted to my 999S.
My brother who has an rsv mille with race cans cannot hear his own bike for the sound of mine !

i agree,the sound is different to the 996/8 i had. u have u2u

I dont want to spoil anyones enjoyment of their new termis but how do you know that theres no problems with the fueling on these bikes if you havnt fitted new ecu's or power commanders.
when my Leo Vinci was fitted it came without a new ecu ,and it seem to run better than when standard ,but once it went on the dyno it was found to be running far to rich,meaning unbernt fuel was washing the bores.
The power commander trimmed 26%off at low revs and 17% at upper revs on average!

Ian u got u2u

Sorry for the ignorance but I,m having the Termi end can fitted to my 749 at the next service with the filters and ECU, is that not enought to get it right? Why do people keep talking about Power Commanders?

Also what does everyone do about the MOT?

Would fitting a power commander to a bike still under warranty invalidated it ?

I've bought a Termi box, CAT replacement pipe and filters from Dementor on the board. Being a relative newbie, can I attempt fitting the kit to my 749 myself, or shall I take it to the professionals...?

tough one that mate,i enjoyed fitting mine,bout a hour or two work. its all down to how handy you are with tools etc, i think the 749 is a bit harder than the 998 to work on though

I'm OK with tools, its just whenever I take something apart, something always goes wrong when I'm puttin it back together!

Plus, I'm gonna have to get it set up, perhaps go down the route of a Power Commander...do you reckon simply adjusting CO levels will do?

Can anyone tell me whether a Termi half system off a 749'S' will fit onto a '04 749dark?I'm presuming the 'S' is an '03/'04 model(friend of a friend who might be selling).Just that one might be coming for sale and wasn't sure if they are interchangeable?According to Ducati Manchester's online shop they list the same kit part number for both bikes.

Cheers

Pete

Yes mate,if its off an '03/04 749S,it should go straight on.
Its the 999S that has a differant pipe to clear the deep sump.

Thanks for that

Pete
