What fairings/seat units are you using? As in title what are you all using on your monster race bikes, pics please and where you get them? thanks |
I think the most common choice for a monster is 748/916/996 fairings. Either full fairing or just the top and a belly pan (race belly pan so must hold so many litres of oil if it goes wrong). As for sources.. DSC Post on stuff for newcomers Theres a couple of shops on flea bay that specialise in race fairings if you fancy something a little different. Mark :) |
See the link that Ells posted above (as you're not the first to ask!) BUT just about anything can be made to fit with a little bit of ingenuity (and cable ties and duct tape!). I've previously had a Triumph race seat unit on my 600/620 SS as it was less than £30 off ebay. Seat units from an RS250 are also quite a good fit too. Put it on, mark it in pen, attack it with a saw and try it. Keep going until it fits! Half the fun is having something different from everyone else! ;) |
I had an R6 seat unit at home you can have which was given to me. You may be able to make it fit your monster. othewise like others I use a cut down 9** head fairing and a belly pan |
Anyone know where to get a cheap one of these from not at £274 exc postage etc http://www.magicalracing.co.jp/MOTO-.../ducati_m.html |

Fairings I'm in the same predicament, but with a 620 sport. I saw a few really nice bikes faired with 848 fairings - I think that might be the way forward for me. I've been informed that it might be worth getting a race fairing bracket to aid fitment. Don’t know if this is the case for monsters. :eek: |

could do with lifting the pan there Chaz ;) :lol: Like the blade seat unit tho. |

The bracket does aid fitment on the SS (I had a carbon one). Buy 2 though because it will be a case of "when" not "if" you crash yer gonna need a spare. |

New design Paul, "Sand as you go" saves on those initial fitting problems. :lol: |

Not got anymore pics & the bikes not here! The seat fits quite well & follows the frame rails so dosn't look out of place & you just grind it to the shape you want around the tank. |
1098 fairings with ZX10R seat. Some pics in my ad here: http://www.ducatisportingclub.com/sh...ad.php?t=84931 |

Anyone got any photos of a monster with rs250 seat unit, i just cant decide what to buy zx10, blade or rs250...decisions decisions |
Tom Roberts class A bike has an rs 250 seat unit |
It has always struck me as odd that when racing in a Ducati series on a Ducati bike, why stick Japapanese bike fairings on your Ducati???? Chris:burn: |

I cut 60mm out of the middle of my 1098 bellypan and rejoined it to make it narrower. (after it came off on the cooper straight at brands!) |

Just been looking at more photos of the seat unit fitted and it doesnt fit too good on tank and you can still see the rear subframe. :confused: |
best fitted I've seen, other than the real Monster race seat, is the ZX10 fitted on Rons. Think it was cut a little to fit tho |
