They're the new replaceable brake skins available from Ducati on their next bike.   Stay tuned for the custom brake competition announcement.

If my 620 didn't already have a set of Brembos, I'm sure I could have added those and a tamborine to my wet clutch (insert Italian/848/tamborine video) to make a few more dollars upon selling it to some sucker!!   [roll]
