Ducati Monster Forum

I am really considering adding a belly pan to my 2012 M796. I love the look and added protection. I do not like adding a lot of aftermarkets to my bikes and was wondering if anyone out there has some experience with this particular product. Is it a good product? Any problems with the heat from the exhaust? How easy is the install? Any help would be appreciated!

if you do a quick search in the acc. and mods section you'll find several that have used the Barracuda.

IMO it's scale is a bit off but it still looks good. i think it's about 1/4 size too big for the bike. There are several other types of belly pans available for the new Monster now as well.

all of them look good IMO. i  think i've only heard of one type having heat issues, but can't remember which.

those are just a few of the threads that popped up with a search.

Well done Raux, its amazing what can be found with that search function  [clap]

Raux, Thank you for your response and the information it is very helpful.

 ɹǝnǝɥǝƃun, BTW I tried the search function and was still unable to find what I was looking for. Also, I only resort to forums if I cannot find the information I am seeking elsewhere or if I want to here from someone who has had experience with a certain subject. It;s dickheads like yourself who make stupid make the beast with two backsing comments that turn me off to forums. Do me a favor, grow up and keep off my page.

Nice way to start off on a tight knit forum. Do us all a favor-knock that off or go away. No one here will want to help you with that attitude.

jgrimm

no problem on the help. we actually are a pretty tight group here. Ungeheuer wasn't being a dick. During this time of the year we tend to get a lot of new people are the board asking the same questions as each other or as we've been discussing for a couple of seasons. When a question is answered on multiple threads it tends to make searching for new people a bit more difficult. Searching for the right threads to comment on helps the community as a whole.

 as far as search on the forum you have to be in that board for the search to work in that area. I had that issue when i first got here too, mind you there wasn't as much information as there is now.

of all the forums for Ducati Monster I doubt you will find one more complete. I am on aa couple of other Monster or Ducati boards and even when googling, I still usually end up here.

The Italian boards are probably the next best or in some cases better, but unless you read Italian... good luck.

...and when new people come in and act like this fine example of society...

Guess what?

We feel our members are of a higher caliber than those that need to resort to name calling after only 6 posts.

Take a couple of days to reconsider your approach.

I think moving forward would be a good idea at this point.

Haven't seen a reaction like that since the Great CCEMN1.  Now that guy was good for some entertainment.

In any event, to the OP, take it easy, we're all friends here.
