Help Needed to Find 1000ss Headers

phillc · 07-Mar-2009, 21:10

As far as we know, the Multi headers won't fit, specifically the one from the rear cylinder. This is due to the fact that the 1000ss uses a double sided swingarm and the cantilever setup of the rear shock. The same goes for all Monster headers - even for the double sided swingarm Monster 1000 - the shock gets in the way.

620/800/750/900ss headers also won't fit due to the depth the headers need to go into the engine on the 1000ss.

Overall, it would seem that the 1000ss headers are a pretty unique setup in the Ducati range.

Thanks for the thoughts and kind offer though. Much appreciated.

Thanks for the offer, Martin, its really appreciated.

As Phill says, it seems that the 1000SS engine is something of a unique beast and no amount of cludging will get around the problem!

We'll keep trying.

Would 1000DS headers be similar I wonder?

I've checked on Ebay Germany and came up with Zero I'm afraid.

Neither Silmoto or Marving appear to make headers for either.

Sorry - Good luck

Its 1000DS headers were after Frank, but from the SS, not the Multi. They're like hens teeth, it would seem...
