Sounds like you got yourself an R! Congrats!

Shhh, I got an R sticker and sanded the tank myself. No one can tell... from inside my garage.

Trauma · Apr 17, 2013

I'd love to see that sanding job rofl!

Hey cloner do you have those sprockets in stock, trying to get one but was told only available in 6 weeks.

Never heard a thing about it . Does your bike get hot by any chance when you ride it ?

Oh .... we've got another Frosty and Trauma! you guys are too funny. People are coming to my office to see what the hell I'm laughing at.

Trauma · Apr 17, 2013

Ha - I was laughing imaging Bronch trying so hard to sand his tank!

I'd most definately go aftermarket, you'll get a much better chain and total cost will be less than the ducati kit and oem chain.

Nope. But it shows as "in stock" for 525 parts on the Dealer site. I'll confirm if you like. The OE 39t sprocket shows out of stock, but the 40 and 41t versions show available in both gold and black.

For orders like this I usually ask vendors to drop ship to save you a bit of shipping cost.

Thanks Cloner I'm looking for the 520 kit in gold 41t

Cloner · Apr 17, 2013

pm sent...but the long and short of it is "yes", they have the parts.

Ok I saw the other posts, but what I was after was from those that have done the conversion, is a simple... Is it worth it? I am happy with mine as is, but I am always interested in upgrades that improve it. So that was my question as the Duacti kit will be around $350 to $ 500 if a dealer does it.

Cheers

Hoping the map will take the sluggishness away. If not; I would consider going back to the original sprocket and chain.

Dan said that Ducati says you can leave that map on if you decide not to use the new sprocket. Not sure what that means about what it actually does...

I just had my sprocket changed yesterday, without the map. It's taken forever since both dealers here wouldn't originally do it without the map being available, then changed their minds. I only took it out for a short spin last night, but no error codes, DTC errors. DQS works, but feels a little sluggish compared to previously. Hopefully I'll get out to test it this weekend if the weather cooperates. So far, I can tell you it spins up very quickly. The front wheel is light even at half throttle 2nd/3rd. Cruising speed RPMs obviously are much higher, almost a 1000 RPMs.

Nice !
Got my set on order, waitng for the parts to get in.

Why not go with the up-map ?

The dealer doesn't have it yet.

So... My dealer just called me and let me know he just spoke to Ducati that let him know that the current Map that was released back in Novemberish 2012 covers the 41T sprocket. Let me know if anyone hears differently and I'll follow back up with my dealer tech too.

Geez, this keeps getting more confusing. I asked the 2 local dealers here, last time I talked with them was Tuesday and they told me there is a new map specifically for the new sprocket. I also remember reading here somewhere that some guys in CA have it uploaded already. So, I don't know what to think anymore...

I agree.. I'm just waiting to see what's going to pan out. Maybe a map will be released and he'll call me saying bring your bike back in to get the update. He said he was under the same impression that a new 41T map was coming too, but they told him different today. We shall see.

So is there an official DNA price out yet for the conversion kit?

Sweet, it's getting closer to being real! And not relegated to the realm of bigfoot and the Loch Ness monster. Does your dealer have it yet?
