  1. No. I would rather ride a Honda than have one of these monstrosities on my Pani

  1. I have previously bought two Panigales with Ducabike Clear Clutch Covers (other makes are apparently available) on - a V4S :heart::heart:and a 959:heart::heart:.
    Both offending articles were immediately removed and sold :sun: which they did pretty much straight away. So, some people clearly :) like them.
    I personally HATE :skull: them with a vengeance. They just look so shit :poop::poop::poop: to me words cannot describe my scorn for them. But, each to his own.
    So, cast your vote above. Who is right, who is wrong? :noentry:

  2. My view is that in a spill, the cover takes a fair whack. Hence I have always tended towards the oem as on the 1198 and 916 its hefty. This is despite having slipper clutches. I'm not a fan but each to their own. I have a GB racing cover on my 1299.
     
  3. Normally accompanied by red anodised tat…

  4. Still voted even though I don't have a Pani...

    They can be put in the same category as a bevel gear window or what ever they are called.

  8. One person passion is another’s poison…some people like green food…get all that.

    But ffs it’s not sexy or clever!!
     
  9. Two bad things about my 959 track bike, stock exhausts and that stupid clear cover bling

    Will be corrected this winter when track prep done!
     
  10. 15 nil to the no’s so far. Pointless tat imo. Now an STM dry clutch conversion…. Guilty o_O

  11. Dry clutch serves a practical purpose. A clear cover doesnt serve any purpose.

    The fight back starts?
     
  15. As expat Jack knows I like them, I’ve had one on my 899 and 959 and they’re not exactly silly money. I thought they were a bit more interesting to look at than a boring old case and you get to watch stuff spin about.

    I also don’t mind a bit of anodised stuff as long as it’s not top to toe.

    And rim tape while we’re at it.

    Sorry about me.:joy:
