Hi
Spot the 3D printed parts. What do you think? Would you or have you used 3D printed parts on your bike?

Awww come on everybody. Everyone takes a look but keeps your guesses and opinions to yourself? Negative opinions most welcome 
I give you a clue there are three 3D printed parts maybe

How did you guess?
You found two out of three.Yes not easy to get a finish like the expensive machined ones but I thought I would see what it would turn out like. They actually look better than the photo but yes who would put cheap plastic on a Ducati? I reversed engineered these from the Brembo black ones meaning these tacky one took hours of work
. Oh well It gave something to do.There is actually quite a lot going on with the Brembo caps.
Could that be just some kind of adapter to plugin into the 6 pin connector that diverts the heated grip circuit or is it more involved i.e need to update software also.
A pit lane limiter not much use for me but I could put some LEDs on my reservoir caps and use the extra button to turn them on
I like the Button Boxes
Me too. I didn't plan to get them but I upgraded the brake lever to the Brembo RC17 and realised that It hit the stock switch.
That led me to buy 2 switches, 2 mirrors, 2 grips
. Just the clutch lever is left but I am hesitant for the moment.

For the pit lane limiter, it would likely require an update to the dash software as the limited speed is a selectable item.
For what you want to do with it, you could check the pin out and see if there is a voltage change on a particular wire for the right controls and use it to trigger whatever you want. You would likely have to make some kind of a logic or control circuit board to do so.
No, but you have given me the idea to try and print them with a PETG/Carbon Fibre filament they are not cheap to replace and my left ones have some minor scuffs.
The trouble is trying to get a high quality finish but if they could be red that would be interesting.
Okay if no one can spot the remaining 3D printed parts then maybe I did a good job 
Anyone know why the winglets are designed by sandwiching two pieces together? There's actually some foam in between. Perhaps it's just a way to keep the weight down and keep the shape stable under stress. I wonder if the carbon fibre ones are the same. Anyone know?
