Special for Gunny

I don't know... everywhere else, yeah... kick stand? I just don't know... lol
 
No voucher :(
Installed it last year on my Tri. Very high quality and really superlight. The only problem was the magnet glued into it. Since the panigale reed switch is polarity sensitive, it was neccessary to get the magnet out of the kickstand and re-glue it reversly.

If you're looking for weight reduction without eating less, this is a good thing.

Yeah, if I were to spend $400 for a kickstand I might be eating Taco Bell instead on Longhorn for a few weeks!
 
hmm.. just crunched the numbers.
It's going to burger king every two weeks for one year in Switzerland. Personally I decided to go to BK once per month, so amortisation of the kick stand will take "only" two years :)
One year to go...
 
Ya know I tried reaching out to that guy twice and never got a response. I'd love one of his productions for sure man!

If only Guido could create the perfect CF kickstand ! Lol.

People that like this kind of ..... Same guys who replace all ...... OEM screws and plastic parts. People that do galvanic finishing on parts that Ducati didn't do because of the costs..., people who spend nights polishing screw heads with 3000 corn sand paper.

Am I an idiot now?

Anyone that wants to cut down on weight in their bike and is not willing to lose the use of a stand...

Me? I can drop 50lbs if I just eat better/less and exercise... Not sure if I can find 50lbs to shed from a Panigale 899 to compensate for my overweight :eek: :rolleyes: I mean, my lack of height...

Using information from a thread from Jarel
Carbon Fiber Wheels - 15.29 lbs saving
DP Magnesium clutch/engine cover - .7 lbs saving
DP lightweight generator kit - 2.6 lbs saving
DP Magnesium Generator cover - 1.7 lbs savings
Shorai Lithium battery (Shorai 1.55 lbs. vs. stock battery 5.85 lbs) - 4.3 lbs saving
Lightweight front subframe -1.5 lbs saving
Lightweight rear subframes - 6 lbs saving
1199 Aluminum Tank - 1.5 lbs saving
All stock vs Titanium hardware - ??? lbs saving
CF Stand - ??? lbs saving

That is what? Around 32 lbs? Darn it... still have to go on a diet... arghhh... lol
 
Holy .... guys!
I can't get over how off the hook some of you are about this thread and topic!

IT IS A FRIGGIN JOKE FOR PETE'S SAKE!!! - RE-FRIGGING-LAX!! lol.

VAST posted the kickstand off a post I made regarding it probably a year ago and put it up as a gag. I assume that if my Tri has "bling" mods involving Proti Titanium bolts and lots of carbon I should just go push it into the street since its not a true Ducati?

Thats it, Im on my way to do that right now then. :)

I admit I bit hook line and sinker.

It seemed so Gunny. Bling, Bling.

Can't wait for the Gunny-bike to drop below superleggera weight with all the lightweight bling on it.

This would definitely add well to the look of your bike though.

1199 too hot? Bad kickstand sensor?
