You didn't look very hard I went to EBay and just searched "1199 socks" and the blacks were first (mobile version) 22.05.

The pricing is pretty reasonable, but factor in another $50-$100 for your dealer to install them.

Don't do what I did. Make sure you specify if you want the "Corse" emblem facing forward or toward the rear. I goofed and said "forward" so had to pay another $100 to fix them. Rear is what you want so you can look at the logo and so everyone can see them and know you have a Ducati.

Ahh... Well thanks for that input... that's a costly error.. and one anybody could make...

Does anyone know what torque the triple clamp bolts and steering nut need to be?

sorry did not read well enough

its 25nm for the top triple clamp x 3. But to be sure ring your dealer and ask the service section in case my memory is incorrect.

cheers

do you have 2 platforms up at one time? or do you move the center one? i guess my question is why 2?

I only have the clamp installed on the fork, currently not in use; and it doesn't get in the way or look out of place colour-wise....if I don't use it soon I'll remove it but looking at options now.

Trauma said:
BTW Ken - that Techmount fork mount won't fit our beefier, stronger, tougher fork tubes of the base!

I heard that, the S is "different" for sure.

Yea, learned the hard way. Ordered it on your advice, didn't fit. Our forks are a larger diameter!

Sorry about this, I'll edit my post to make sure it's clear to anyone who reads it in the future.

Wasn't complaining - That was in my newbie days, when I didn't know the S and Base had different diameter forks

This was a confusing thread for a mount noob albeit lots of good info! So thanks all.

I ended up ordering this but with the power plate magnetic base for my Valentine 1

Awesome RAM has a Pani! I did a series of posts remotely mounting a Cobra that has a dash for the iPhone via Bluetooth. So you can be listening to tunes or making a call, and the radar alert will interrupt whatever you are listening to.

Good news is Valentine has come out with that for Android, iPhone compatibility this Spring!

Interesting, I just posted a new thread on HUDs as I was looking for a way to avoid the audio route as I wear ear plugs when riding.

Does anyone have a telephone # for MotoReva?
Haven't received any replies through their website's contact/messaging page.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Is the Adaptiv still the way to go? I don't see many options out there.
