I'm closing in on 15,000 miles on my '13 R and will be converting my final drive to a 520 chain and along with the new sprockets a quick change sprocket carrier. For those of you will significant track time (track day and race) what experience have you had with 520 chain and sprocket brand...

Just came back from my Dealer! Stock forks rebound is non functioning, Dealer submitted paper work to have them replaced again... So far under warranty I've had, or will have 2 sets of forks replace, rear cylinder head valve seal ( failed and sprayed oil all over exhaust and rear tire while...

Hi all - just wanted to express my international purchase experience with shift tech. It's difficult at the best times to deal with a retailer over email and not face to face. I had on order an Akrapovic exhaust through a retailer in the US (won't mention names) for more than 8weeks. There...

Anyone with direct experience using this product? Moto Solutions I've used Rain-X in the past with mixed results (and even they specifically say their product is for glass only - not polycarb like face shields). Was looking around for an alternative especially with spring on it's way and...

I recently found out Foremost is one of the few insurance companies which covers you at the track if it's not a timed event or for any sort of competition. Wanted to ask what your experiences were if you have coverage from them. Thanks!

Does anybody have any experience with the SICOM front rotor kit? When I return from Iraq in about two months mine will be fitted. :D

I ordered one and my local dealer doesn't have any experience with it. Anyone have a link or advice? I can't believe I'm the only one in Austin that tracks their 1199.

anyone here have experience and pictures of their bike with the stickerkits from Vulturebike of something comparable? vulturebike has many kits that really look cool. Panigale Tricolore. Panigale R. Carlos Checa replica. especially the stickerkit from the R i am interested in because...

But I'm kind of looking forward to it! :D

I was watching the development of the AR exhaust for many months and even before they had finalised the design I had decided I was going to get one when they became available. Mostly because I thought it looked the best and was a little unique too (not just another termi boy). I was initially...

Hey up folks, I'm thinking of doing a DRE track day at Adria (Italy) a few days before watching the MotoGP at Misano. Has anyone done a DRE trackday? What was it like? If you've been to Adria, what's the track like? Where is a good place to stay? Looking forward to blasting around the...

Anyone using this? Worth the $23?

I'm very much considering the purchase of a '13 Panigale S. To preface, I'm not new to the sport, ride only canyons, mountains and back roads (no city, no commuting), and may consider returning to the track. I've test ridden an S, have read as much as I could (including Antihero's book) about...

Hey everyone, Looking to add a couple things on my S in the off season. I'm leaning towards the Gilles kit but stumbled across these. Any thoughts, any experience with this brand, etc? At $490 they seem/look like a great deal. Thanks in advance... - 4Racing Rearsets for Ducati 1199...

I bought a sheet of stomp grip to put on tank & curved part of fairing. I cut the pieces, but haven't mounted them yet. I've never used the stuff (never had a need till now). Can I remove it after 24 hours? Or is it a permanent adhesive? Would any of you mind posting pictures of how you...

I'm thinking about switching to the 1199 for next season. I'm currently racing in a Dutch competition on a 1198s, tuned with lot of RS parts, RT fork, TTX etc. It has loads of torque and HP. please share your track / race experiences here

So there seems to be a school of thought that 1199's that are run-in hard are less likely to smoke upon start up, but evidence is anecdotal and a little contradictory sometimes. The purpose of this poll is to gather some hard data. Please answer the poll once you've covered at least 600 miles...

I'm new to Ducati. I started this thread to get more info on others experience as well as tell you mine. Took my 1199s/ABS into the dealer today for its first service. The good news was, after the first service full power is then unlocked I'm told!! Was something about it being setup by...
