Hey guys just saying hello Been riding 23 years and only last week popped my Ducati cherry Bought a 2015 1299S for my 44th birthday 1st pic is in shop second pic in garage once the mirrors were gone
Cheers for the welcome guys No mirrors required I’ve always found them distracting so since about 2003 I’ve always removed them on every bike I’ve had
I hear ya, pointless on my bike as they’re tiny & the 1098 vibrates so much, they’re just pretty much useless anyway, they do spoil the lines on your bike but I think some bar ends & smaller aftermarkets look good.
Welcome m8 , been dabbling with the idea of going mirrorless myself since the 848 ones are abysmal anyway , use the CBT shoulder swivel mostly , way more effective in slow town traffic and not needed at warp 9
Fully agree plus you can always use the sorry officer I didn’t see your blue lights in my mirrors hence the reason I didnt stop when the knock on the door comes
Hi and welcome to the forum well done for popping your cherry on one beautiful motorcycle I brought a 1199 s last year unfortunately now sold due to it being so uncomfortable for my old bone But I did love riding it just couldn't do the miles on it so brought a 1200 PP multistrada And like you I took my mirrors off but did replace them with bar end mirrors and although smaller you could see so much more
I had a CRG Arrow bar end on my V4 which gave a good view behind, no vibration at all. Oh yes, forgot to say, it’s on eBay now as I have recently sold the V4. Will fit a 1299.
