So, I finally managed to buy the bike I’ve wanted since they were released. Very privileged to be able to get one and cannot wait to set her lose on track. So I got her like this.... Hard to find a base model as many seem to buy the ‘S’ model but as I had wanted to upgrade the forks and shock anyway I decided the base model was the way forward. so after a couple of months she now looks like this..... The mods aren’t really in the same league as some of the bikes on here but she’ll be good enough for me Stock exhaust back on so I don’t fail the noise testing Complete 2021 V4 fairings with wings Oz Gass-RS wheels Ohlins front forks with Mupo CSP30 internals Mupo Evo Factory rear shock Mupo steering damper Lithium battery Ducati DDA+ with GPS (thanks @nelly) Ducati Performance race seat Rizoma mirror blanks Evotech folding levers BSD ‘Nintendo’ switch L/R Spider alternator cover Spider fuel cap Spider front spindle sliders Spider rearsets GB racing clutch cover Stomp grips A sprinkling of Matt carbon A dash of titanium bolts And an EVO2 software upgrade (thanks again @nelly) Oh and the all important brake lever guard Now to patiently wait until Donington on the 14th April to unleash her. Stay safe this season guys and girls, fingers crossed for a Ducati day or 2
Cheers Jamie, looking forward to seeing that nice V2 of yours on track when she’s all wrapped. was lucky to get the wheels off a fellow forum member
Excellent. In hindsight I should have gone for the base. Base plus your own custom suspension set up is the way to go I think. I’ve gone ott with bling. Spent that much I daren’t rag the friggin thing now. Maybe
Nelly mentioned your magnificent bike a couple of times during the software update. Sounds incredible! Would love the termignoni system on mine but my mates keep wanting to go to super strict noise tracks like Bedford and snetterton He also said the software shaved some time off your donny lap time
Honestly mate, I swear that software mod sharpened it up. And when I went to Valencia there was a perfect long left hander you could lean on the electronics. It was ace! I wouldn’t have ever tried the same thing on my old 1098R. I’d have high sided to the moon!!
I can’t wait to try it! I’m sure it’ll take some getting used to but we (hopefully) will be at mugello in September so as long as I’m a little more comfortable on the bike by then I’ll be happy.
