Someone noticed me about this forum... I'm not that much of a computer guy, you'll find me more in and around my garage... More of a builder than a poster, I guess... But what the hell, here we go... ;-) My name is Martyn, and I live in the southern part of Holland! Ducati's are my passion... I didn't want to hold my build back from everybody... Is there a dedicated part on this forum where I can post it? This is how it started out: And this is how she sits now.... (Still ongoing...)
Hi Martyn, fantastic looking bike seen your posts on MS Do a write up, we love lots of photos, stick it in here Builds & Projects | Ducati Forum
Now that is a nice bike.Have you thought about adding the longer 996/998 dp magnesium swingarm.The exhausts and seat unit go really well with that bike imo. Nice job ill check it out on ducati ms.
Exactly as it looks a bit odd to me unlike the later seat unit.The 1098 swingarm reminds me of those febur magnesium swingarms which I wasn't a fan of either.
Thanks guys... It has a 1098 swingarm, these are exactly 1inch longer than the stock 748-998 swingarm... (Yep thats a 200 Pirelli Supercorsa) Panigale sidestand, has been powdercoated in frame color last week LOL I will post a story in the dedicated area as soon as I find the time to do so... ;-)
Its just down to personal preference Tobytyke I like the slimmer less complicated design of the dp mag swingarms compared to the febur/1098 style and yes im aware the 1098 standard swingarm is longer than standard 996 swingarm.Funny though I think it looks much better in black in the last pic compared to first post and goes with all that lovely carbon bodywork on OP's bike and the dark colour makes it look less bulky to me anyway. One of the nicest looking bikes ive seen in quite a while.
Thanks!!! It is a custom exhaust, partly Termi 70mm, partly Zard... That sound... (this is before the custom mapping, the paintjob and the 1098R wheels)
