Ducati Forum 470Four Bike of the Year 2013 - entry thread

My shed built Radical Pantah!

Built by my own fair hands from an Aluzzurra and a 750SS. The only thing I didn't do was the paint.

As people are listing modifications, here goes. Basics are I took the Pantah chassis and cut the back end off, including the twin shock mounts. I then set the geometry and welded the mono-shock mount into the Pantah chassis. The front end was removed and a USD front end was fitted, with single disc to reduce unsprung weight. This is plenty good enough due to a light bike. The motor was stripped and rebuilt as stock. The carbs are PHF36's with alloy bellmouths, with a home made rear inlet manifold to position the carb within the frame rails. The battery was relocated to behind the headstock, and a modified loom was made and fitted to re-position all the electrics under the tank to keep the look clean. Nothing electric can be seen apart from the odd lead from pick-ups etc. I fabricated a new fairing frame to allow the new fairing to be fitted along with re-positioned 750SS clocks, and an auxiliary power supply for sat navs etc. (It's built to be used, I rode it to Spa last summer). The exhaust is stock with cut down carbon cans. Adjustable clip ons are fitted, and the pegs are mounted to suit me, but can be adjustable if required. I can move it about to make it more tourer friendly, or track ready. There is so much more but this is the real basics. This all sounds pretty simple, but is the result of 100's of hours of head scratching, cutting, welding, re-cutting, re-welding, more head scratching etc, etc, in my workshop. I'm glad people like it!

My 1996 Ducati 600 Supersport.

Bought this year as a first bike after passing my direct access at the young age of 48, not a great first bike, as its a pig to ride in slow traffic, but lovely to look at and great to own!

28,000 miles, completely standard, un-restored, un-modified and now becoming rare as there now only a handful that are regularly taxed and used all year round.

 

My 1999 Monster owned from new and originally a M600 Dark.

It currently has a 1994 Ducati SS engine (Hi-comp pistons), 888 rear wheel (190 tyre fitted), 916 fully floating front brake set up and master cylinders to suit, Fire custom headlight, alloy swing arm, M620 carbon exhausts, black anodised SS front forks.



Granted Kitty Brooker should be behind the bike but there was an explosion .....



Yorkie

My 999s 'italia'. Once a black Mono Nero.

• ProTwins race-seat
• Adjustable levers
• TechSpec Gripster tankpads

Doesn't have the big budget or carved from the solid appeal of some of the great bikes already on this thread, but I'm proud of her..:smile:
The story began with a very strange ebay sale. The engine (848evo) along with the TB's , air box, stand, headers, injectors and loom, were listed with and end time of 04.17am.
I decided to put a cheeky bid in before bed and let the ebay/bike building gods decide!
Anywho...No other bids were made and the motor with all bits became mine for the sum of £800.

The scope was to build a cheap(ish) track bike, I have only participated in one track day before, but decided to give it a go.... Build it and they will come...:wink:

Spec is fairly humble.
848evo motor
848 forks
1098s brakes and M/C's
748 frame
Blue Peter air box
Modified 848 loom
848 LCD dash and ecu (Thanks to Chris for the flash)
Sigma wet slipper clutch
Modified 1098/848 sub frame with fairing/seat.
Cheapo ebay track fairings
Nice chap on the forum rearsets
Stock 848 exhaust (for now) with lambdas and servo removed
848 rear wheel
Anchor Brembo front wheel (for now)

All work carried out by me, 'cept the ecu flash and sub-frame welding.

Vote for Pedo... No, that's no right..He's been locked up...

Vote for Pedro! :biggrin:

There are some awesome bikes here - Mine cannot compete!

'04 749 Dark - Carbon fairings and a few other bits


She has achieved some awesome things this year though - How about 2000 miles in 4 days and the Stelvio pass in a foot of snow??

 

She's gone now....but this is the best bike I've owned, the one I've done most to but unlike some its mainly bolt on rather than build. Mostly to make the bike netter rather than fancy-dan looking

ohlins damper
ohlins TTx rear
CJS custom set up, 139hp
Polished system
Akros
Black instead of red wheels
carbon seat
carbon swingarm cover

few other little carbon bits too

and being ridden how it should be...
