Prepping for 1st track Day - Bodywork

ducati851 said:

Thanks everyone! I've ordered Ducati's Bodywork kit, but can anyone confirm if I also need any of the following items (w/Ducati Part #s):

• Mirror Hole Covers - 97381151AA (I wouldn't think the Race Kit would have holes for mirrors)
• Number Plate Light Plug/Dongle - 38610411A
• Tail Light Connector Plug/Dongle - 96510961A
• Is there a headlight Plug/Dongle?
• Is there a side stand Plug/Dongle? Would you suggest removing the side stand and rely on just wheel stands?

• No mirror hole covers (it’s the same body as the factory but unpainted.

• Doesn’t include dongles but includes head/rear light deletes.

• No stand delete as it’s the same as factory’s.

If you are gunna remove the plate you’ll need the block off for the license plate light, that’s actually the most important one weirdly, as it throws codes that affects other electronic systems.

The mirrors/block offs are what hold the upper portion of the nose fairing to the upper fairing stay. If you replace the upper fairing stay with an aftermarket part and use dedicated track fairings you wouldn't need the block-offs.

Number plate and tail light, yes.

There is no headlight plug and one isn't needed.

There is a side stand plug, 38610171A. If it's your first track day and you're in novice class, I'd leave the sidestand. Most regulations I've come across only require you to remove or safety wire the side stand in the advanced class.

you'll need a pair of 1 mirror hole covers/mounting, yes it has holes like the std fairing in fact they are the same part number just white.
if you have ordered a Ducati performance fairing set it comes with 2,3.....
there is no need for 4
side stand eliminator plug comes with it too
I remove the side stand get fairing bottoms that are complete......its not that hard to come back into the pits switch off dismount and wheel the bike back in to where your stand is and fit it.

Thanks everyone, this is the information I was looking for!

As I was… just checked - they don’t list anything after MY 2021.

I think they do if you look at the painted road ones:


Presumably fine for track use? I guess not the same material or durability as the race ones?

I’ve no idea what the quality is like for the parts or the paint job?
