Await a collection date for my new V4s Thoughts on essential mods, so far I'm at, Paddock stand bobbins - Evotech Axle sliders front/rear - Evotech Sat Nav mount Zumo - Evotech Handguards - Evotech Tailtidy- Evotech Rad & Oil Guards - Evotech Any other suggestions welcomed. I will eventually fit an Exhaust, either an Arrow or Akrapovic, just slip on end can. Really looking forward to the different power delivery after 10k miles on a 950s
The Iconic sat nav mount (with the off road steel plates), https://iconicparts.uk/shop/ols/products/multistrada-v4-v4s-device-mount, is IMO, a better mount and my hand guard preference is, https://www.ducati.com/gb/en/accessories/ACC011974. Andy
There are two treads with the same title on the front page. One from yourself and one from android as far as I can work out…
Thanks Andy, I really like the look of the Iconic mount , just trying to work out if it will work with my Motopumps Zumo lock , can't forsee a problem
One of the best mods is the centre stand, makes parking, storing and maintenance easy. Also upgraded the sump guard as the standard one is flimsy and easily damaged, I didn’t damage mine but managed on a demo bike doing a little green lane riding
I went with the Ducati accessory version, got a deal from Ducati Manchester. If they have items in stock are always happy to do a deal. Saved me a fair bit in accessory parts
I have this one, https://www.ducati.com/gb/en/accessories/ACC011977. Not cheap but robust. If you are going Evotech on the radiator guards, get this set,https://evotech-performance.com/col...iator-oil-cooler-cylinder-head-guard-set-2022, the head guard is a must. Andy
Thanks , yes All guards in my Evotech basket , tail tidy is out of stock , also considering rear footrest delete as I'm not one for pillions. The Ducati sump guard looks well designed, but kinda fancy a black item
@Martin Newman IMHO, Axle sliders front/rear and a Tailtidy on a sport touring bike are a waste of good money best used elsewhere: Front and rear stands if you don't have any, Wheel chock, Upgrade your riding gear, Upgrade the stock seat, Quad-lock phone mount, Ducc-EE servo eliminator, TechSpec lower knee pads,
i disagree, and its personal choice, but axel sliders protect the bottom of the fork legs and rear swingarm in the event of a slide. I know as these protected the bike I purchased damaged. The tail tidy, yes offers less protection from the crap being slung up, but it does improve the looks of the rear end. The ducati tail is massive and for me I wanted the few inches back from the rear to give me a little more room in the garage. The rear looks a lot cleaner, and the smaller indicators finish it off. More cosmetic than functional.
