COSMETIC BLING & BITS THAT SING
With all of the tricky bits out of the way, I decided to add a few finishing touches. A Bucci slipper clutch was donated from my track bike and STM Frame plugs colour matched to the frame replaced the standard plastic items. The rear wheel nuts were replaced by titanium jobbies while the rear wheel nuts were lock-wired. Terry turned up with some new Rizoma oil reservoirs on his bike - hmm, nice and subtle. I'll have some of them and so of course had to order some extra bits at the same time - so on go new Rizoma throttle grips, bar ends, oil and brake reservoirs. All in understated black. Oh and to complete the 'sporty look', I also applied some 'Moto GP' style wheel stripes along with Ducati Racing decals.

WHAT NOW?
Well, I'll enjoy riding it for the last few days we have left of the summer. Then at the first sign of winter and road salt, it'll be wrapped up in cotton wool for winter. There are a few more ideas that may happen over the winter months but for now I'm just going to enjoy my bike.

Take care all

very impressive, looks like a lot of work and a lot of thought has gone into the transformation, must have been a lot of money also gone into the project but who's counting

[Mad Dog Bianchi]

Pretty Slick! Lot's of innovative ideas. Hope you sleep with it at night as it looks like real robber bait.
Tell us more how the camera works out!

M,

Lots of interesting stuff there. Thanks for your honest opinion on the TL dash. I've been thinking about of for some time but will probably go for an AIM now.

Any recent pics showing all the final parts, rad etc?
