questions

Sup.. I have a few questions regarding interchanging bits from the Panigale R to the 1199(base model). Will the ECU/TFT and Wire Harness from a Panigale R work on a 1199 Base Model if I get a Panigale R engine? I don't see why it wouldn't just want to verify before I make some big choices.

Do the 1098 wheels fit the panigale series ? What is needed belly pan wise to meet scutineering specs ?

One of my forks is leaking pretty bad and I need to get it repaired. Called my local dealership and they want $125 per fork for the seal kits and 3 hours of labor which comes out to around $550-600. I found the seal kit on Kyle Racing's site, but I want to make sure it's the right one. Also...

I picked up the Race Seats tank extender from Houston SBK: RaceSeats Ducati 1199 899 Panigale Racing Seat / Tank Extension There is one side of double sided velcro on the inside of the tank extender, and It does not come with hardware. I have a few questions for those that have this...

Looking at upgrading the radiators on the 15R to get a bit more cooling on the engine. Especially here in Dubai with 45 degrees outside, I think it would make sense. I can see that MAC makes a couple of different solutions. In this regard I have a few questions I hope some of you can provide a...

Hey guys - I am looking at purchasing a 1299 and as a 1st step, since no one local rents out 1299's, I rented a 959 for the day. I will demo a 1299 from the local ducati dealer as well before buying but obviously wont be able to spend as much time with it so I have a couple questions: - How...

Hi everyone, Picked up a 2012 1199 base model late last year, and finally have some time to dig into this thing. I've had a few issues with it (surprising since it only has about 2k miles on it), and some things I'd like to ask about. * I had the left turn signal issue, where it just wouldn't...

As my first 600 mile service is approaching, I have been thinking about having the dealer install an Akra titanium full system on my 1299S. However, I do have a few questions, before I commit to it: 1) Besides weight savings, are there any other benefits? For example: noticeable performance...

Yes I used the search function to see if I could find information to the questions I'm asking, but couldn't find anything. I know the heat issue has been beat to death, but here goes......... What type of clothing are you guys wearing while riding when experiencing the extreme heat issue...

Hey guys, I searched around but got confused. When I bought my 2014 1199R used it came with the Termignoni full system in a box from the previous owner. I bought it from a dealership who had it on consignment so I never met the owner. One thing he neglected to provide was the up map stick for...

Hello everyone. I am struggling to understand what could happen to my bike's geometry now with a longer wheelbase. Any inputs will be greatly appreciated. 1299S. WAS on 15T/40T with 104 chain links. Suspension 'F'. Total Sag 38mm (Front), 28mm (Rear). NOW on 15T/41T with 106 chain links...

Evening Gents, I am the proud owner of a 2015 R which has been brilliant for the first 2000km however I feel it is time to ditch the stock exhaust cans. I am see a lot of conflicted opinions about the construction of the stock R exhaust so I am hoping some of you knowledgeable folks may be...

I have seen youtube videos of people installing the key by plugging it in the bike then turning on the bike (don't start) ,allow download to happen. Remove while bike is on and you are done. I have also read that I must have a dealer install the up map key with the DDS system. My up map key...

I am having some serious problems trying understanding how does the Suspension in dynamic mode works and configuration questions. I have done several track days (running on dynamic suspension mode) but I just can't make the bike feel right for me. I weigh 196lbs (89kg) fully gear. When the...

Howdy guys. Havent been on here in a while as I've been doing triathlons this summer. Anyhoo got back on Sofia a couple of weeks ago to find my clutch lever would allow me get the bike in nuetral from 1st or 2nd. Weird. So I did a little clicking on my crg carbon levers to open the lever a bit...

I have read a few brief things about how the switch on the beginning on the clutch lever works, but nothing definitive. I definitely see how it changes the throttle response when it is engaged. So my questions are: 1. Why is this switch here? (Actually "why", not what seems straight forward...

'm following the directions for "Windows 8" in regards to connecting wirelessly to the WB-01. I have connected the WB-01 via the supplied USB cable, the power light is on and the MTS light is blinking. Everything that is supposed to be happening. However, my computer will find the WB-01, but...

Loving my 1299s. Definitely a different bike than my 2013 S1000RR. Throttle control with the V twin is a different beast, particularly at lower RPMs while taking off. Ready to get the miles in and get that 600 mile service so I can really start to open it up. For those in the know I have a...

I've rebuilt alot of forks, but never the Marzocchi. I have a few questions for someone who has actually had them apart. I have a leak seeping where the inner tube slips inside the bottom casting (where axle is) the other side did the same and the guy who installed the carts ate the work and...

Hey guys, I'm getting around to doing some mods to the bike finally and am stuck with my 520 conversion due to not being sure about some torque specs. I have the torque service manual thats floating around on the inner webs but the names for the bolts just don't seem to add up to me...
