anyone use the shift-tech race subframe on street?

I have the FullSix version with the quick change street/track setup. Not sure what brand integrated light I used. I mounted my Rapidbike module in the tail as well. Fixed any heat issues I had and so far has been rock solid. It does take a bit of fitting to make everything work and you will have to drill holed in it for various things. Some people are not comfortable taking a drill to a 2K piece of carbon fiber. You have to modify the seat/tank bracket. Drill the holes for the heat shield and if you have the S model, you will need holes for the electronic suspension as the slotted section that is on the stock frame is solid on the carbon frame.

thx. . it appears like the shift-tech has some slots already in place and i was thinking a kind of hacked new rage could be fitted into the shift-tech slots...

in terms of drilling, i guess if u just dont do it in a way that compromises the structural integrity it should be fine... shift-tech sells another version that allows you to swap out the street/race covers...
 
Hmmm. I have not seen he vent slots that are located above the lower mounting bolts in the aluminum stock sub frame in any of the carbon frames. On the S that is where the electronic connectors for the shock route. Im running the small Akra heat shield so 4 holes had to be drilled for that. I machined my own magnesium spacers to get a perfect fit (subframe to pipe). I punched a hole in the center and forward to the rear shield holes (right in the center of the little flat area on the back or the Akra shield) to run the E suspension wiring and the O2 sensor wire. I also built 2 5" extension cables using factory Ducati connectors for the rear shock to make everything fit. I made a carbon fiber bracket for the RapidBike box and mounted it to the removable tail panel. I can pull the RB in 3 min if I need to. Everything came out very well and it all looks factory. The seat bracket was the biggest PITA. I had machine spacers to make it fit how i wanted it to but in the end, it came out great.

could you post some detailed pics up when u have a chance?
 
Hi VAST

Did it similar endodoc did it. But I also drilled a hole for the rear shock wires. I confirm, mounting the subframe to the bike is a bit of a PITA :)

I planned to install a homologated micro rear/break-light with a specially milled alu adaptor instead of the two rear akra shield mounting studs.

HAve a look at http://ducati1299.com/guides/23276-installing-shift-tech-s-carbon-fiber-subframe.html

very nice...

i noticed that the FullSix has the 1299 form factor vs shift-tech's 1199 shape..

Friend of mine installed the new version of the CDT/fullsix subframe, the rear light is exchangeable with a dummy CF cover, so both street and track trim.
