  4. Fitted dp mirrors, look a lot better and feel they don't vibrate as much as the originals.

    I wasn't planning on using my 848evo as a commuter bike, but have used it all week to and from guildford to Oxford street london this week. Really impressed with it . Yes it gets hot and not comfy but didn't miss a beat even in the rain today.:upyeah:

  15. Looks good Gary. Did they make a 1098 Corse SE or did you do it? Either way i like it.

    Is the hugger and swinger arm cover one piece? Not seen one like that.

  18. I had my Ducati Performance seat re-upholstered. The fabric was wearing pretty thin at the usual points, so I had a buddy work his magic. Black alcantara with the logo done in silver:

    Not quite as grippy as the old fabric, but certainly a lot better than the standard seat.

  19. Exige's battery upgrade cable jobby fitted. Hadn't started the bike up for at least a couple of weeks but fired up straight away with the new cables. :)
    Tried it a second time once warmed a bit and still fires up quicker than it did when warm before.
    Added a few more bits while at it.

  20. I bought these 25mm adjustable risers from mc motorcycle parts in Hong kong.

    They were super cheap compared to other brands but are pretty good looking. The rise makes such a difference to the wrist ache.

    Has anyone else bought these? Only thing I'd say is when I push the bike by the bars, sometimes they move an edge. Not noticeable when riding and feel I've tightend them as much as I can without going crazy. Get what you pay for perhaps....
