Imagine how large it would look with a tidy!! It is just wierd looking. Does this work though?

BlueBear, is that your bike? and also the question I really have is does this help in any large margin to justify getting it installed? Is it night and day difference?

Thanks

I no longer have problems with the seat heat that the header was causing due to the cermaic coat and race seat. I do how ever get the right inner thigh heat from the head where your legs wrap around. I think I will only get the head cover and leave the current Termi CF heat sheild on if that is an option unless the new Termi CF heat sheild looks good.

head cover - that's it. i'd rather have blisters on my legs (had none so far) than this heat shield.

interesting what i found here, they even have a heat shield for the rear tire: [[sorry for the size]]]

I am just wondering if the brake calipers are the brand new Brembo GP4-RX Calipers ? Brake lines look like Bremzen stainless steel (which I have on my 1098). The Brembo GP4-RX 100mm are *really* hard to get ahold of in USA and Canada.

I am sticking with the Ceramic Coated Termi, race seat and seeing how all this plays out. A Carbon Fiber engine guard would be a nice addition

I think you're right, the pic is so BIG it is easy to tell!

Is that a dry clutch or just a cover of some sort?

dry. g00gle Bursi evoluzione. or look at their shop:
1199 Panigale

they also offer the one piece carbon rear frame and an additional oil cooler kit.

crazy italians. crazy good

sorry for the hijack. back on topic:

i will try to find a carbon cover for the cylinder head!

I believe it is indeed a dry clutch. It the same style as the Ducati Corse WSBK Slipper Clutch (4 stud adjustment) - Aluminum Basket with Aluminum plates and I also see the bike has Brembo RCS Master levers .. hmm seems a lot like my 1098 configuration. Except he has his Brembo GP4-RX Calipers .. and I am waiting for mine ..

EDIT : Just confirmed it is indeed a Dry Clutch.

"Trauma" has a much cheaper way to get a dry clutch! And it takes care of the heat at the same time.

Trauma · Feb 12, 2013

Yea, it was real hard to tell if it was dry are not. I mean, without a cover, how would you know?

Yeah. Trauma is more than a handle. It's an engine condition

some more pitchers:

(from a german forum - they were laughing and saying that must be the US version to prevent ducati getting sued ;-)
but apparently this feature is available all around the world)

as you can see, the shield has 2 layers !!! should be quite effective! but still uggggly!

Trauma · Feb 15, 2013

Jeeze Phil, could you upload a bigger pic?

I hope someone comes out with CF versions real fast! I know certain people that hate the heat and love their CF, so they are going to be really torn on what to do!
