How to install your own Termi Exhaust

Ducati Forum

Help Support Ducati Forum:

Video was helpful, but too bad the manifold that came with my termi's is bent out of shape which prevents the muffler from slipping on!

Need to find a way to make the manifold round. Ugh, so annoying!
 
So my 1199 R is in right now for 1st service and Termi install

They quoted me 3 hours of labor for the install (gave me dealer cost $65/hr)

I just called, their Master Mechanic has been working on the install for 7 hours so far today - am i missing something?

It certainly was more than slip-ons with pipes etc.. but this seems too long

IT's rough man. I did my own as well. And that's if nothing goes wrong... As you can see, I needed to buy a torch, nut extractor, and taps in addition to tools I already had.

Are they still only charging you for 3 hrs??? and that labour rate is the lowest I think I have ever seen....
 
Yeah, took me 3 for when I did my own slips before the full. I thought he was talking full as well initially.
 
Oh..my bad I thought he was getting the complete system... I agree by the way..its a bitch of a job... $65 an hour is still very good though....

Well i gave them a box of pipes plus the Termi's
 
so the latest update:

We're 9 hours in to working on the install. The pipes in the Termi kit don't fit together, sounds exactly like what TransNone13 went through

So maybe this afternoon it'll be done.. which it better be.. as they're closed Sun/Mon :(

:(..Wow...this is odd.... I am sure they have fitted Slips before??? Even I as a complete amateur and taking several beers breaks probably "only" took 6 hrs...

I might have the terminology wrong, but do Slips come with new pipes and heat-shield too?

Im getting the manifolds fitted Wednesday to mine. The tech is quoting 4 hrs to do it...he's done a few times and his own track bike included. Another dealer quoted 6 - 7 hrs....

So 4hrs seems really reasonable, labor is $120 per hr...so $65 is a bargain!!!:D
 
Full system on "R" and takes 6 by the book but if problems longer as mine took 7 hours when I had it done as there were fitment issues.

You are paying to have it installed ?

My dealer installed my full system on the R before I took delivery.
