Title: What nice ozzie wants to help this yank get some 600ss parts?? Post by: ducatiz on July 22, 2010, 05:42:47 AM Howdy!
I have a 600ss here in the States and I am looking for the factory 2:1 headers (downpipes and collector). Unfortunately, Ducati never sold the 600ss in the US, so I am the only one and can't find any. If any of you good souls know of and are willing to arrange purchase and shipping, I would be eternally grateful and happy to return the favor in any way I can.. (morals limiting thou! [evil] ) Thanks!! Title: Re: What nice ozzie wants to help this yank get some 600ss parts?? Post by: DUCMONROB on July 22, 2010, 06:16:35 PM Howdy back to you!
Try this wrecker in Sydney they import and export. http://www.motorcyclewreckers.com/bikes/index.php (http://www.motorcyclewreckers.com/bikes/index.php) Or try Liverpool bike wreckers located in Penrith NSW. If no luck let us know and I will look around. Only other option would be to buy a set on Ebay. Rob Title: Re: What nice ozzie wants to help this yank get some 600ss parts??

I've looked on ebay for ages now and every 600ss that pops up has a 750ss kit installed. I'll ring the wreckers you listed and see what I get. I appreciate the links...

He tells a similar story of how he got the exhaust on his 600ss. Nice bike. He loaned it to me for a few months before I got my monster.

Post by: ducatiz on July 24, 2010, 01:16:15 AM Gowanlach doesn't have them.
If its on the web, I've probably found it unless its a local wrecker. I'm hoping you folks have good swap meets and someone is willing to pick it up and ship it. Spareshack has the silencers, I just need the header... Title: Re: What nice ozzie wants to help this yank get some 600ss parts??

if so, if you search on ebay.de and find it let me know and i can help with shipping. Title: Re: What nice ozzie wants to help this yank get some 600ss parts?? Post by: ducatiz on July 24, 2010, 02:41:58 AM did they sell them here in Europe? if so, if you search on ebay.de and find it let me know and i can help with shipping. yes, all over Europe. i've found a few things but the German sellers seem to want 3-4x for items and postage is phenomenally expensive for some reason -- cheaper to ship from Australia !!! but if i find something i will let you know, thanks so much Title: Re: What nice ozzie wants to help this yank get some 600ss parts??
