So I had my first ever track day last weekend. I am a good confident rider on the road. But track is a totally different experience. Did not expect it to be such a challenge. I just could not get the weight off my hands to freely turn the bike after hard breaking before a turn.
Got a little...
Out of the blue I took my 1299 out and now it hits hard when putting bike into first gear, then it started grinding bad before engaging. I adjusted my Crg clutch lever and seemed better for a little bit, but still engages hard and bangs so loud. Never like this before. The engine bike jumps...
I have a set of slip ons I can't use and some extra termi stuff I no longer need as well, two y pipes all the hardware needed to mount it the dB inserts a pipe cover this only works with termi headers FYI, I have a front header and cut y pipe of a another bike I used to own, this slip on are off...
Hi everyone Im new at this forum, and I will really appreciate some help, I bought a salvage 2017 panigale 1299, I tried to start it jumping it and it will cicle but no start and it wont let me change gears. Thank you all.
Hi all
I have a 2016 1299S which sometimes has issues engaging 1st gear (all others gears are fine) neutral is also a bit hard to find but i can live with that.
I did read that sometimes you need to bleed the clutch and ive done that and it seems fine.
When i have the clutch pulled in...
Let me set the scene.....gearbox was operating normally, and then I had to remove the rear wheel. I placed it in first gear to remove the rear axle nut. Subsequently, I cannot get the gearbox to shift up/down, nor will the rear wheel move when the clutch is pulled.....
Any ideas people????
What's up guys. So close, but the dealership followed it's stereotype and tried to scheme some more money out my pocket in the last minute with the check on the table. The salesman was great, everything was going smooth till the finance manager stepped in and tried to tell me they're going to...
Hey what's up guys? Some unfortunate issues with my previous gsxr 750. Finally gave out on me so my brother is letting me borrow his 2011 Yamaha r1. Now, the first couple times I rode his Bike, I didn't like it much. The throttle felt jerky and the aggressive seating position was hard on my...
Well here are the numbers at the halfway point. How much are they paying this guy? And they are paying Stoner to help? And they have the GiGi mojo?
2011 Rossi 7,5,5,3,5,6,4,6,9
2017 JLo 11,DNF,9,3,6,8,4,15,11
Late start to the season for me with a new kid at home. First time of the year at a new track (Pacific Raceways).
Scenic, undulating and twisty, tons of elevation and bumpy! It's physical and it really exposed where I need to improve both in bike setup and riding technique before gridding up...
The first 1199 Panigales have a Bosch ABS unit with two different Banjo bolt sizes.
Two bolts are M10x1, the other two are much bigger.
Does anybody know the size or where to source these in Titanium?
Thank you guys in advance!
Changing gear from 2nd to 1st using clutch kills the engine :( what did i do wrong? I go change gear from 2nd to 1st using the clutch sometimes it kills the engine.
Hey guys, just had my first track weekend on the new bike and man what a difference from the 848evo. Didn't carry speed through the corners like the EVO but it more than made up for it on corner exit and down the straight! Chuckwalla is better for a middle weight bike so adjusting to a bike...
I have installed the Woodcraft rear-set foot controls, GP-Shift. It took some time and plenty of thread-lock; however, the job is not quite done; it appears that I can shift from neutral to 6th and back to neutral; but, for the life of me, I cannot shift from neutral into first. The bike is on a...
Hey Guys,
Changed oil on my 1299 for the 1st time Today, the bike had 450 miles on it. Oil Change went good. Had no issues. Actually easier than I anticipated.
Installed new Oil Filter, Cleaned, lubed, and Adjusted the Chain, filled with Motul 300V.
Went for a nice ride and put on 70...
Hi all,
Nice to be part of the forum. Looking forward to getting to know you all better. Just picked up a 1299 Base yesterday. My 1st ever Ducati. Looking forward to owning this bike. Have owned 3 ZX10s, S1000rr, GSXRS, ZX6Rs. And a few others.
Think I will need some help with some...
And it's mine! :D
Went from a '98 V-Max to this, and all I can say is WOW! I would never have guessed how good these bikes are. Everything from long trips to daily commuting to short hoons!
I know most public reviews say this thing is tiring to use for extended periods every day, but...
