work in progress.............

How did you get the Large V Rap graphics for the tank?

[Crap Tartan]

Don't Ducatis use dry clutches? No need for a window really. It will be interesting to see how yours looks when it's running. Certainly be a reminder to change the oil once it gets looking a bit black.

Personally I like to hide the tax disc holder as well as poss. They is ugly. And isn't it supposed to be on the left hand side?
I was trying to remember where mine was fixed but realised I don't have one. I just carry the disc in my wallet

Anyway - it wasn't meant as a criticism - I was just suprised that you'd want it spoiling the look of such a fine looking machine.

point taken on td holder but a mate got done once for not displaying even tho` it was in his wallet!!

I will have to find a better place to put it......................................(added that to the very end of the long,long list!)

More progress today, exhaust/brakes F&R/other odds and ends all done!

clever man at Bike Paints designed them from my "back of a fag packet" drawing and hey presto!!

I had it running before with the window and it looks like a washing machine at first, then clouds up a bit, then as it gets hotter clears up and gives the gremlin in a microwave effect!

There are videos on youtube that show them running. They look neat as actually, with not much oil visible. They stop when the clutch level is pulled in and start to spin up as you let it out (obviously).

Here is a link with a TL1000R. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYBIdGMzGSI

Here is a link with an actual Raptor with the Red framed window. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myT7EgzI ... re=related

BTW, Ducati's with dry clutches usually use an open basket. I have never seen a dry clutch with a viewing perspex - only an open basket to get your finger (or something else in the case of ducati owners) caught in.

Looks the business. I'd love to do something like that to mine, except I'm not very well organised. I'd lose half the bits stripping it down.

thats what all the drawers and cupboards in the spare room are for!!!

just label everything as it comes off, take pics if you need to, and box it under each heading. dawdle!!

[Red Mist]

Sounds simple. I might have to have a go as I've just realised that I need a see through clutch cover.

Fairing/headlight is a Puig unit

[Ballacraine]

It is reminiscent of the one I have on the Buell Firebolt.

Nige.

I`m pretty sure Demamsia is right!! Puig rings a bell alright.

quick google and its confirmed, a puig shadow fairing.
