heres my 696 and a list of its mods and future mods....

MODS:
termi - carbon slip on exausts
ducati parts - carbon exaust sheilds
ducati parts - silencer sheilds
ducati parts - LED turn signals - front and rear
rizoma - lux grips
rizoma - reverse retro bar end mirrors
rizoma - bar ends
motovation sliders - front axle, rear axle, and frame sliders (haven't installed the frame sliders yet)
tape works - reflective white wheel striping
michelin - pilot power sport front and rear tires
competition werks - tail chop kit (powdercoated black)
powdercoated headlight bracket black
xenon hyper white bulbs - high and low

FUTURE MODS:
pazzo - clutch and brake levers
ducati parts - 5 spoke 696 rims with the 5.5" rear rim so i can install a 180 rear tire.

i'm getting these as soon as they are available. i was told my my ducati tech that they will be available around feb. of next year. i can't WAIT to get a real tire on the rear and get rid of those weak ass three spokes...

I ordered a generic set, and there was no way to get them in a perfect circle.   bang head

So they're not installed.

This guy makes it look easy.  Once he's done, when the wheel is spinning, you can see they are not a perfect circle.  coffee

Thanks for the clip. You confirmed this will take me days. Maybe I can get a wavey disc so it'll match my tape job.  Roll Eyes

Thanks for the clip. He makes it look easy, and I'm sure he's done thousands of them.

What if I don't have a stand like that? I'll suppose it'll make installing the rim stripes that much harder.

Looks clean with the white and clear lenses.  You just need to black out that yellow shock!!
