New 1098 Owner

  1. Well,

    Took some doing and convincing! However i am the proud owner of my 1st Ducati -A lovely 1098.

    Was delivered today however the delivery company massively damaged the bike :(

    Nose cone on the LH headlamp side cracked. Rear of the LH side mid fairing cracked! and the under belly fairing underneath on both side has most of the paint scraped off after it was poorly dragged down a loading ramp!

    However i am still excited to own this machine! Wondering if anyone could advise on where to purchase all replacement fairings and an idea of costs so i can pass onto the courier as they are paying!!
     
  2. Welcome - which company did you use? Strange a professional company would damage a bike - was it a specialised bike courier?
     
  3. Welcome mate, If they're paying, can you not just order from Ducati ?

  4. Thanks and yes was a reputable company.. But i guess i got unlucky with a certain pair of drivers! I have emailed Aylesbury Ducati to get an understanding on cost of replacement and painted.
     
  5. Welcome Dave and sorry to hear of your woes
     
  6. I have the under belly fairings spare Neil (in red). I'll check today but believe one of the fastening retainers (the plastic bit) may be broken.
