Neil,

You can clearly see what a Spaghetti system looks like compared to standard headers although the ones in the pic have been modded in the cross over. Rgds, Rob

hmmm, tasty stuff - the pics have been added to my 851 folder for reference and possible negotiation with the boss

Now then Rob, we'll have none of your pornographic pictures on here thank you very much.........

They look well tasty mate-the old 'nest of vipers'.

Neil,

I see you won the SP2 system, that be a nice addition and go well with the planned mods.

Rgds, Rob

yeah - cheers mate, I'm picking the pipes up tomorrow morning, then I'm across to Leeds to drop my motor off with 'Ducati John'.

It's all go at the moment - I've also managed to get confirmation of an order with Ducati for a load of stuff at what seem to be really good prices, odds and ends like clip ons, brake & clutch levers + mastercylinders, seat units, body parts, bracketry, fasteners, screen, dashboard, control cables, hoses, hydraulic hoses etc

What I can't get over is the fact that performance bits seem difficult to get hold of, but I'm new to Dukes so maybe it's just a case of learning who to speak to !!!

Where is everyone getting these cheap parts from, everytime I go anywhere for something, they haven't got it and charge full price.....can someone let me into a secret?

I'm still after a seat cowl, and am loathed to bay £78 for a lil bit o plastic.....

851neil · 24-Apr-2005, 12:02

no secrets neil ! seat cowl, is that the sleeve over the pillion seat ??

neil · 24-Apr-2005, 21:34

Yup, sleeve over pillion seat, same as the 888 on mine, but I believe the early 851's had a different type, but £78......think I'm gonna have to bite the bullet!

Rob B · 24-Apr-2005, 21:44

851Neil, Did you get my U2U mate?

Rgds, Rob

851neil · 24-Apr-2005, 23:26

yip, read it and appreciate your question, when I finish my rebuild I'll let you know what I have left over. I'll probably keep the cosmetic stuff just in case I ever drop her !!
cheers

Neil
