Is it safe to do so? I will only be riding without it for about a week... British roads only so salt and water as usual. All protected with ACF 50. Sending the belly off to be powder coated, finally!
I can't see safety being a problem and the motor won't be less protected than most other Ducatis. I was thinking of leaving the thing off mine.
I don't see it being an issue either, if I was riding the dakar or something, then yea lol. I think it will be fine, sending off the belly and the pillion pegs.
