tried to put to good use a spare set of 996 wheels , a bit less of a mess about for tyre changes and tyre warmers

single swinger always looks better than a double sider but probably does not do as good a job as the origional

....bet it was a pig to do though!!!

fitts straight in, only altered the left bush slightly and used the rear tie rod from the 996 and a different spring seat from Öhlins 20mm deaper

Oh,yes.
The designers origionally wanted a single swinger,but Ducati Corse had the final say.Double sided it is then.

It looks MUCH better. As suggested though, would be better with the Corse magnesium job, but can't be beaten for wow factor!

From a performance/handling perspective IMHO it is a step backwards, but in the styling stakes, what a winner.

looks amazing nice job,has it lost weight or has it put on a few pounds,dymags look cool,but not as nice as my blackstone rims.
