Title: Couldn't wait.... I now own a different bike. Post by: tricolore on August 05, 2008, 01:11:33 AM Installed a new System last night, 3.5hrs. Not bad for a Plumber ;D. Too tight to spend the $99 hr for install. Just need to get it tuned now as it runs like a bag o' Shite. Ducati dealer says if I can wrestle it to him should only take an hour or so. May have to trailer it as I could not ride it in Sydney traffic.

Post by: Spider on August 06, 2008, 03:34:21 AM hey, I steered you straight didn't I...said in would run like Cr@p with a capital C.
has it gone in for TPS trimming? also I have a different mount...can someone take a picture of their termi frame mount (Melvin?) for the shotgun system for Tri please? (the dual exhausts (ne each side) do have rubber bushings where the bracket (around the canister) is bolted to the frame mount (which is bolted underneath the frame raiings via longer 5mm hex headed screws that replace the stock ones behind/under the rear light section. Title: Re: Couldn't wait.... I now own a different bike. Post by: tricolore on August 18, 2008, 01:15:36 PM I took my bike to Ducati Penrith today for tuning after the Termi Install, Goes like a dog shot up the arse now. I am very happy 8).
Big thanks to the guys at Ducati Penrith, It's the first time I have dealt with them, I will definately be back. Did the tune while I waited, very approachable fellas I highly recommend to any Sydney Folk. They also have open invite to all Duc riders for coffee on Saturday mornings if anyone is interested. |
