Phew been quite a while since I added anything to the Ducati but have just some back from the NEC, so I have some additions :-)
I decided to change form the Brembo GP levers I'm using to the AP ones, these have the variable ratio which allows you to tune the performance to your liking. I wasn't too keen on how the clutch operated so it will be interesting to see what effect the levers have.
As you may have noticed they are both "brake levers", this is becasue AP don't make a specific clutch lever like Brembo do, but all you have todo is use one upside down for the clutch :-)
This is what the race teams do (and that's where I saw it)
I also got myself an anodised oil filler cap, I had tried to get one before at previous shows but nobody had them, or they were "working on it". I managed to source one at the NEC from Pro-Bolt, who did mention previously they would be making one :-)
Hmm couple more bits to go :-) before I'm done here - above next to the oil filler cap you can see a set of Dyna Coil leads, the actual coils themselves are to follow as they didn't have them at the show. Hopefully I should recieve them in the week and I'll post a picture when they arrive.
I also got an upgrade for my Ohlins rear shock, this gives me remote preload adjustment without having to resort to the spanner :-) It also saves me buying the complete shock again and then trying to flog mine off.
I'm not sure where I'll mount the adjuster but I'll work that out when it's on the bike. I'm waiting for a Marvic Mag swingarm which I've been advised (cheers Andre') isn't available till early next year, so I won't bother fitting this upgrade part till then.
Can't see any point taking the rear end apart twice within a few months.
