Title: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: JimmyTheDriver on December 21, 2010, 07:34:09 AM Saw the movie this past weekend. It was alright... but the Sport Classic in it was a beaut.
What kind of mirrors were on it? Thanks! Jimmy Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: Slide Panda on December 21, 2010, 08:16:11 AM Napoleon bar ends

Post by: Bishamon on December 23, 2010, 07:54:58 AM Beautiful SC by the way. -Jimmy Thanks! :) I heard they're torture to ride. I certainly don't use it for any long distance riding. ;) Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: magus on December 26, 2010, 10:32:37 AM I heard they're torture to ride. Not at all. Well, maybe some wrist pressure but like most Ducatis, the pleasure to pain ratio is extremely high. Recommended. Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic?

Well, maybe some wrist pressure but like most Ducatis, the pleasure to pain ratio is extremely high. Recommended. I guess some more than others. Some say the reach/positioned on the supersports (desmo16, 1198) are pretty uncomfortable, but beautiful for the track.Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: DRKWNG on December 27, 2010, 06:26:57 AM 1198s are downright comfy compared to my SC. [evil]

[evil] As a former 1098S Tricolore owner, that says a LOT to me! [coffee] Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: DRKWNG on December 27, 2010, 06:05:43 PM As a former 1098S Tricolore owner, that says a LOT to me! [coffee] My SC is FAR from stock though. Its ergos are much more aggressive then it was from the factory. Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: ducatiz on December 27, 2010, 06:50:38 PM My SC is FAR from stock though.

Post by: IZ on December 29, 2010, 06:36:27 PM I like that they actually had some mods done to the bike!
But was the bike monoposto at the beginning and then biposto at the end?!? Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: DRKWNG on December 29, 2010, 07:03:36 PM But was the bike monoposto at the beginning and then biposto at the end?!? Maybe it was exploring its options...

Post by: Bishamon on December 30, 2010, 09:28:24 AM Removable cowl? Yep, it's a biposto throughout (ignoring the 'jump' scene); The passenger seat was covered by a cowl. Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: NorDog on January 04, 2011, 02:06:21 PM I used to want one of those... I'm looking for one with a metal tank. Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: Bishamon on January 05, 2011, 06:13:53 AM I'm looking for one with a metal tank. Like this?

It can be seen in this trailer (though the brief jump scene is actually a '70s XL350 Honda made to 'look' like a Sport Classic): TRON: LEGACY Official Trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9szn1QQfas#normal) Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic?

That tank looks amazing! All that bike needs now is a chrome seat cowl and a black seat! Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: DRKWNG on January 05, 2011, 01:04:11 PM All that bike needs now is a chrome seat cowl and a black seat! HERESY!! It would be a crime to cover/replace that seat. Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: erichan8757 on January 05, 2011, 01:42:19 PM I heard they're torture to ride. sit postion is lower than ducati sbk for sure. Would not recommend to ride long tours. but torture???? nahhh, depends what angle you view it. Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: Cloner on January 05, 2011, 03:09:57 PM 1198s are downright comfy compared to my SC. [evil] You need to try MH900e. A more uncomfortable bike has probably never been made......but I love it anyway. [moto] Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic?

Post by: Monstyr on January 07, 2011, 02:50:30 AM I'd also like to know more about that tank. Its not a stock SC one and I'm guessing it's either bespoke or from another model adapted to fit.
Any more info? Title: Re: Mirrors on Tron Ducati Sport Classic? Post by: Bishamon on January 07, 2011, 05:17:47 AM I'd also like to know more about that tank.
