Ventura luggage
 
I am off to France again this year but am fed up with ruck sacks,tank bags and a bad back.

Anyone used the Ventura kit on a 748r

I have used the Ventura system on my 748 and 749. Best bit of kit for touring on a Ducati. Easy to fit and does not effect the handling.

Thanks, just got to find one at a reasonable price now.

Do a search for Ventura as it's been discussed many times before - always with plenty of personal recommendations!

If you want some cheap, how about joining the DSC proper? You get 10% off the price from the UK distributor, which will save you more than the cost of joining...

I am a member, but have never used the card for discounts, so I will have a look around.

Thanks

Hi

I used a Ventura set for World Ducati Week, it si simply the best system I have used.

Ebay is ideal for picking up the bags I got a rally pack (the big bag) last week.

If you see a rack on ebay make sure it is mono or biposto they are different fittings.

The only downer I have had is that the Rubber bungs that support the rack system under the subframe pulled through and the seat got scratched.

I would recommend changing the bolts/rubber bungs for washers and lock nuts.

If you require photo's of what I mean email me

Oh !

and if you buy two delta/spada bags make sure that they have the zips to fasten them together some (possibly older) don't seem to come with these zips

How are the racks different for single vs bip seats (mounting points or clearance ) ?
I have a bip with a single seat on it, so which would I need :puzzled:

Didn't realise members got discount either :rolleye:

The bip uses the passenger foot rest mounts
