Rear hub looks like its Corse size or bigger, maybe MV size, doubt if it will take my mag wheels off my 998

Hmm,....

Not sure whether I like it or not.Cant wait to see it without all the foam that is taped all over it.

I m with you on this one,if look again and imagine the fairing without the gaffer tape etc, it could be a looker me thinks.

It's the tail end that looks really suspect to me. Those cans just aren't good, and they'll look worse with a plate underneath them. There's something not quite "right" about them.

He's just been down a bumpy road and landed on that tank ooooooooooow.

Hey Chass
Are you going to send me that stand?

Looking at the sidestand i think the extra padding and gaffa tape will be standard. as if anything like the 916 its only a matter of time before it snaps like a twig but with all this padding it's sure to bounce back up. bravo ducati superb design and forward thinking as ever

Yep,much cheaper than crash bunges.

Ill wait to see what it looks like when its Finished before I state anything about the bike or its looks.

Talking about a job before its finished, tut tut.
