  1. Never noticed before that the drive side fairing lower is slightly different from the 1199 to the 899 !
     
  2. Yeah I didn't realise that until I got my 899. I love the fact that on the other side, I now have a hole where I can check the oil level. On the 2012 1199's they didn't have one and it was a complete ball ache to check! Happy days...
     
  3. the stickers on the nose and side fairing look good - are they just ebay jobs? so they seem good quality?
     
  4. They're genuine Panigale R decals that were fitted by the suppling dealer when the last owner bought the bike new.
     
  5. ah right cheers

    how much are they from ducati do you know?
     
  6. Here's the part numbers and prices...

  8. Thanks, glad you like it :upyeah:
     
  9. I'm getting a bit anal now..... but it's nice how the shock body matches the colour of your fork uppers. I've just had my Nitron I had on my 1098 rebuilt for my 1299 and luckily the shock body has come back black, which coincidentally matches the fork lowers on my bike.
    Before anybody says it, I know, I know, I'll get my coat :grin:
     
  10. Thanks for pointing that out as I hadn't realised and those small details make me quite happy, as sad as that is [emoji1]
     
  11. just realised the dust caps on my s1000 are the same woopy
     
  12. That's probably got to be the most exciting thing about the S1000, no?
     
  13. you lucky, lucky boy !

  19. Hello Matt, what brand of paddock stand are you using?
     
  20. That's just a cheap £30 Tech7 one from Demon Tweeks, certainly nothing special.
