V4 Good To Be Back.

  1. Thanks Jamessd for the info. That definitely changes thing slightly. I called the dealer and they said that I would only need the side panels no need for the nose fairing. Need to get 100% confirmation before I take the plunge.

    Thanks for your help. :upyeah:
     
  2. It may just be me being an idiot, but I did attempt to refit my 2018 sides alongside the 2020 nose a couple of weeks ago as I’d damaged one of my 2020 sides. Couldn’t get them to line up so ended up refitting the 2018 nose as well. I’ll take some photos and measurements and post them up for you early next week.
     
  3. That would be a great help thanks. :upyeah:
     
  4. I can confirm that if you want to fit the 2020 side fairings, you MUST use the 2020 wider nose cone. In addition you will need the screen as this too is different on the later models, plus you will need the newer right angle brackets for the frame. If you buy the track fairing kit from Ducati unpainted from your dealer (arguably the cheapest route, unless you can find a V4S/R owner getting rid of their stock bodywork), you'll also need the noise deadening panels, clips and velcro pads, plus of course the winglets. Depending on your choice of plastic or carbon wings, budget (less paint) for at least £8-900
     
  5. Excellent info there Topolino much appreciated. I manage to get a look at a 2020 model and could see straight away that the front nose fairing was wider. I’ve decided not to bother as I would just go down the OEM painted panel route and the cost is getting a bit much, looking at around £1700 for all the bits and bobs. There is nothing wrong with the current panels on the bike so I think it would be better to spend that kind of money elsewhere on the bike. Possibly save up for an exhaust or some nice blingy bits.
