  2. I love it. You can shove that lump of whatever was between headstock and engine where the sun dont shine on the OEM 1199. Now it looks like a proper ducati. I'm an old fashioned luddite. I love the trellis.

    Whats that square black box on the side? That round thing where the old frame mounts used to be between the cylinders, is that the starter?

  3. The parts fiche shows the square thing as a heat exchanger

  5. Looks amazing. Would Love to win lottery and Build One of these in streetfighter trim, seems a shame to fit the rads which would spoil the look (lol)

    Bet the price of the frame/airbox/tank and subframe kit is atleast Half the price of a panigale.

  6. Get the shock off the side and bolt it in the middle, pop the zorts under ones balls and heypresto a Ducati!

  7. I've seen a pani with undersear exhausts. It was a Zard system. looked too much of a gap between tyre and s/arm.

  12. according to the write up there is no weight difference the point of doing it was to stiffen it all up but not add anything to the total weight.

  13. not to stiffen it up, Slof, but to introduce some lateral flex and therefore feedback in the corners.

  14. oh i see, that would make sense.

  15. I'm no expert, but that's what I got from Pierobon himself :smile:

  16. Given that a crashed pani seems to smash its frame ... This makes total sense

  17. The very nice thing about it is that it uses the coolant to do part of the cooling of the oil so way more efficient and consistent than a conventional oil to air cooler :)

  18. so the latest advance is to go backwards then?

    as nelson said, bang the zorsts under me 'arris..oh and get a rattly, dry clutch on there and they might be onto something...

  20. Yep, Modine type of heat exchangers have been used on vehicles for a looooong time.
