Hi guys, I have purchased DP frame covers and they came with what looks like cheap white double sided tape which doesn't look remotely like it would withstand any sort of heat, not like the grey good quality 3M tape.
Any recommendations of something a bit better that won't damage the frames?
Thanks in advance
 
Thanks Ducaikev, Just as I suspected that the dark 3M was the best to use, I thought about using PR1422 B 1/2 sealant / adhesive but would never be able to remove it if required. Cheers
 
Clean the mating surfaces with alcohol or an alcohol prep pad before heating it too. (Degrease)

Some ppl suggest taking that sticker on the frame off and Stick it To your service manual or inside the rear seat storage compartment. I hate all those stickers. But the CF covers will be supreme looking!
 
Thanks mate I will be sure to do that with isopropyl alcohol, yes I only had a couple of DP carbon bits on my 1199 the rest was a mix of Shift tech and Carbonworld, so all DP for my Streetfighter, I think DP carbon is by far the nicest finish and stands up to the UV better over a long period without getting that greenish pre preg colour, thanks again mate.
 
Sweeet, sooo this is a V4 Streetfighter? You can be the wheelie king on that thing if you dial DWC down to a dangerous level

also, look how tiny the exhaust outlet pipe diameter is

Is it in your possession yet?
 
Yep V4S SF, hopefully it will arrive in country mid to late May as advised by Ducati, they will then have it in the shop for exhaust install etc and then ship it north so should be able to dial down the DWC and have some fun on the Gillies, Kuranda or Rex range roads by June.
 
Just the Akra slipons for the SF, I only got the Termi slipons & up map for the 1199, I only weigh 58kg (123lbs) so half the time I don't think the bike knew I was even sitting on it so didn't think I needed to mess with anything else, plenty of power for me, I can only imagine how the V4 will feel, can't wait.
 
“Just” haha. Slip ons Sound, look and perform the same don’t they? I have Akra slip on on my 1299, which means the butterfly valve is still in place. I’m not sure if the v4 has any of that but I’m certain that the slip ons remove the cats completely soo

Yeah that v4 is going to be so smooth. Still gonna be wheelie king tho!
I installed some new ECU maps for my big twin and it did tame it down a bit at the in the low revs, also made shifting with DQS a little nicer but I think my quick shifter unit is ready to be upgraded to the HM unit, the Factory Pro spring kit and possibly an upgraded EVR CTS clutch.

Cant wait 4 your first ride review, coming off an 1199 and onto a v4. I’m obsessed with the V4 Panigale but don’t have one yet
 
I'll make sure I can convey my thoughts about the bike once I get on the road, we are blessed with some of the best roads for day trips here in North Queensland whether it's up and down the ranges, along the coast or up in the Tablelands just got to watch out for the odd knuckle head in their car.
