Second Ducati

  1. Good evening.
    Recently got myself a Panigale 959 after having a Monster for a number of years.

    Had to lower it being a shorty, so I suspect I'll be hovering around the Panigale section picking up hints and tips.
     
  2. Here it is.

  6. Welcome Dave
     
  7. Welcome to the forum. :)
     
  8. Is that a fawwawi wrapped in cling film in the background?
     
  9. Yes, a 458...
     
  10. do you put your feet on the pillion pegs then?
    does it handle ok lowered? i would avoid lowering the front, as the front mudguard will hit the fairing.
    If you dont weigh much, I would get a softer spring for the rear too.
     
  11. It's not lowered by much, but as a 5'1" lady I just wanted a bit more feet/floor contact. Steering is very light touch compared to my Monster, and the bike doesn't feel like it's struggling to turn.

    No I don't put my feet on the pillion pegs, suspension I need to have s think about, as I fly out of the seat with any bump on the road.

    Taking it to WDW, so will have more in-depth thoughts after that
