running

So no surprise bike Temps are up in the summer.. mine has been running at 220 ish when in traffic. Comes down to 180 when traveling. I can't hear the fan at all.. is this a normal temp for a panigale? I'm used to aprilia and ktm bikes. Don't want to hurt anything with those temps.. previous...

I just ordered a set of Dunlop Q3s to replace the OEM rubber (stock size up front, 195/55 out back). I got tired of replacing over-priced tires every 1000 miles of road riding. For those of you that have done the same, I would value you insights from running these tires in fast, road-riding...

Hey people. I started running dunlop slicks for the first time"¦done 3 track days with them. Not sure how I feel about them. I'm coming off Bridgestones that I ran on an RC8"¦great front end feel from those, but the front was very sensitive to pressure setting and could get eaten up in a few...

I'm on the verge of buying this radiator to put on with the SSTK pro exhaust. Panigale 1199 Racing Radiator Zusatzkuhler Wasserkühler Zusatzwasserkühler | eBay Anyone run this radiator? think it will fit with the Pro exhaust? THanks.

So you guys running race fuel in your 1199? Going for my 600mi service on Saturday then I'm gonna take some of my VP Racing MR12 and get the 1199 on the dyno hopefully. I've run MR12, MS100, VP109 in a lot of my other bikes always noticed my bikes had a better punch with it.

I switched from the Scorpion's to the Michelin PR3 after getting a chunk taken out of the rear tire. They recommend 42psi F+R and I tried that, but really way too hard and not so grippy in the corners. I started using 36F/38R and it's better. I'm just wondering what you guys are running with...

Cold at say37-45 degreesF?? Thanks. Found my pressures were at 27f/25r and bike was drifty at speed as ptressures and temps never really came up.

Just wondering if anyone has this and if they have a pic of it on the bike.I'm running without mirrors and have the block off plates in.I think the factory mirrors are horrible looking and can't stand them.I've seen the Oberon kit but not actually on the 1199 to see if it looks decent

So I bought the termi slip on for my 1199 had an issue with the up map, so it currently sent it new one on the way. Had a actual half way decent day of weather here, friends took their bikes out to a Starbucks( none of them have Ducatis so we aren't the only ones) but I took my wife's bike since...

Now while we certainly can't replicate stop/start town running conditions, we can replicate free riding, so lets see how this goes. The scenario is: (1) Record ambient temperature (2) Free ride for 15-20mins, varied RPMs (3) Record engine temperature (4) Stop for 5mins and record engine...

Had a great morning out on the bike knocking off the kms to get her run in. Fantastic day in the mountains and playing with the DDA+ on my Tri and love to map overlay feature. Makes it interesting to use on the road as well. Does anyone know if there is a way to overlay the DDA...

Has anyone here run their bike in for 2500 km's? Seems really harsh. 1st 1000 ks under 6 000 revs and next 1500 ks under 8 000 revs?

love the 1199 only 200 miles till first service. bit gutted to read that after first 600 miles ,can only do 7000 max revs for another 900 miles ..thats wot the manual says.:D:D

Having fun designing my own sneaker. Does this reflect Ducati Corse style?

I've been trying to persuade my wife into seeing the imminent financial sense of my buying a Panigale. Feel free to take a moment to roll your eyes. But seriously, I have been trying to make this work on paper. The way I see it, a $20,000 (with tax) Ducati will lose about 25% of its value...

Just gone thru the magically 620/1000 miles/km this morning. Whilst giving her a wipe down after the run I noticed the carbon around the termi outlet. I guess this is because she's running rich? The termis have been on since the day I picked her up. Is this usual to have this much carbon or do I...

Hi, I have been searching but still unsure, what oil/grade fully synthetic/semi synthetic oil are you all topping up with during the run in period ?? I have read the manual but I'd be suprised if it's fully synth from the start I have some Shell Ultra 4T fully synthetic but it's 10W-40...

For the lucky ones who have their's, what's the script with the run-in? 600 miles @ up to 6krpm (limiter set as this until you get your first service?), but then what? Seen on the forums that it's then a further 600 miles, limited to 7krpm. Is this right?, and do you then have to go back...

Do somebody know if the two stripe at the top of the headlght will light-up
