  3. So; the following is now either on the 2010 non evo 848; or in the garage waiting to go on...

    All lights and associated nonsense removed - Track faring on...
    Forged wheels
    TTX Shock
    Full race system and matching ECU
    Steering damper
    Sigma Slipper
    Oberon clutch slave
    Brembo RCS brake and clutch masters
    Rearsets
    Lithium Battery
    Aluminium sub frame
    Nemesis Traction Control
    HM quickshifter
    GIPro gear indicator
    Rain light, Brake guard and Sharksfin...

    So what next? Thinking of getting ECU remapped to get rid of dead spot around 5 - 5.5k
    Looking for more torque and bottom end power
    - any suggestions.
    Can't afford or justify fork internals...??

    Cheers,
    Bob
     
  4. I finally splashed out on the Oberon slave cylinder as well at the MCN show.

    I looked at them, there about £90 i can't remember, If i am right do they make it a bit easier pulling the lever in.
     
  6. Quite a bit easier. I've just gone to using long levers as well and the clutch is more than comfortable now. Almost as easy as a cable pull.

  7. I paid £90 so hopefully got it at a decent price as I hadn't looked at prices elsewhere before hand.
    Hopefully going to fit this afternoon so should know if it's money well spent then.
    I was on the look out for some levers to replace my short levers but wasn't a lot to choose from.

    Any recommendations for levers?
     
  8. I've just changed my titax shorties for some evo tech longies and they feel miles better IMO. But I have got biggish hands. The bike came with the shorties on so never had chance to try the long ones til now. Those evo techs seem to be decent gear and foldable as well. Makes pulling the clutch miles easier.

  9. I think £90 is the normal price off eBay. But then there's shipping on top
     
  10. Just fitted it and seems to have made a noticeable difference for 10minutes worth of work.

    I currently have CRG short levers but like the look of either the evotech or lightech levers.

  11. Just ordered some rizoma pro footpegs and the adapters from pro twins, it was just Over £60 for the pegs and adapters, Hopefully my feet will stop coming off the pegs now.
     
  12. Finally got round to taking the tax disc holder of, should make it a gram lighter.

  15. Glad I could help:):upyeah:
     
  16. I had some new stuff fitted to my 848 last service:
    • EvoTech tail tidy
    • Ducati Performance LED indicators
    • BikePenR navigation support
    • Front fork service (new oil and SKF fork seals)
    Pictures when I'm done cleaning the bike.
     
  17. Fitted my translogic quickshifter today, took me 6 hours. Most of which was spent tidying the wiring so it didn't look out of place. Very happy with the fit and the quality of the parts now I just need to test it. It also needs a good clean!

  18. That looks tidy! Be good to see how you rate it.
     
  19. I like those DP indicators but FM, they're not cheap, are they?
     
  20. If you're talking about the DP LED indicators, you'd be surprised. They were €75,- for a set. I believe they went up a bit in price since then, now they're € 80,- I think.
    Of course you can get cheaper ones, but I struggle to find better looking ones.

    ETA: I've got these fitted. Despite what the site says, these are a direct fit on the back end of most superbikes. The other, more expensive, set doesn't however. These have different legs/fittings.
