@GoodtimeJohnny haha yeah that makes way more sense, I’m in CT
-
My latest one has just arrived at the dealer

@tody I’m super glad my pics are interesting for you. Thanks for saying so. Should help me be less lazy and snap them on more occasions.
A few years back Giles said he thought a trip around here may be interesting to some forum peeps. I have much more free time now than back then so maybe I should think up some ideas and throw them out for discussion.
I’d be thrilled to show you guys around. -
@Bobcat-Sig nice! is there any reason why you put the wet clutch cover on?
I might be going dry on my SFV4 in a few months. just had the Akra put on but without cats and baffles it's very attention seeking and not legal..

I fitted the carbon trim piece so the dry clutch is now exposed. You’ll see it one of the pictures. Ducati ships the bike with the wet clutch cover on and includes the carbon trim piece if you want to swap to an exposed clutch cover, which I did.
Keep in mind that these dry clutches have a noticeably shorter service life than the old dry clutches. Like thee to five thousand miles until a service is required for the clutch. And that could mean all new plates and basket, which can exceed $2k.
As for the exhaust, they do sound nice. The SF V4 is about the only bike where I feel like it didn’t need a full system. The V2 Bayliss may get an Arrow system at some point.

@Bobcat-Sig yeah the sfv4 is my track bike even though I use it on the road interchangeably with my triumph.
have in mind to get a panigale v4 track only bike but probably not for another year or 2..

@Denimhead-0 thought you might dig my old lid! Won it in a raffle at the first Brooklyn Invitational and wore it for years.
-
@GoodtimeJohnny That is a kick ass helmet!!
-
@goosehd thanks it was hand painted by Kris Markovich, a pro skater I loved when I was a teen coming up. It’s actually a good lid too, super light comfy etc
