Any chance of a good sound clip of those Arrows?

Got the GoPro...im just trying to figure out a good mounting location and which camera case yields the best sound (without getting too much other engine noise...)

New After Market headlight clamps (thanks DoWorkSon)

Rizoma Timing Belt Cover, Rizoma Rearsets, and Ducati Performance Luggage.

Up Next, Rizoma Sprocket Cover. Maybe exhaust at some point, but I think the stock sounds fine

Some nice looking bikes! I'm currently happy with the way the bike is and what I'm using it for. Those black levers look good with the black Rimoza Reverse retro mirrors. I'm still trying to find the little plus for the stock mirror holes. I went to some hardware places here in Canada and couldn't find any. Sad

I just flipped mine upside down. No need to plug the holes.

Nice. I was looking at the space under the headlight(s), it looks empty, someone should come up with a CF scoop that is also functional in directing ram air to the oil cooler and the engine(for cooling at speed)! Take advantage of the old headlight mounts in the design. :)What do you folks think?

It does look a bit empty underneath but each project has a different result. The reason being that there is no easy aftermarket conversion for the new monsters. Each headlight mod requires custom cluster brackets and the position of the headlight on the forks is up to the rider and what type of fork clamps/brackets they use.

But you do have a point, specifically the old headlight mounts being very visible. I've flirted with the idea of just capping them off or putting some black hardware on them just because they look so damn shiny.

Finished Phase 1 of my mods. They include: Arrow slipons, motovation front axle and frame sliders, CNC alternator cover, evotech tail chop, leverskinz, rizoma barends, and even some ducati valvestem caps I found on ebay. Ordered a billet front sprocket cover but the color (red) was horrible. Almost pink. Also ordered Rizoma Sportline grips. Put them on and didn't like the look, feel, and they left 8mm of the handle bar showing, so took them off. Also got rid of all those horrible frame stickers which now live under the seat.

Next up are rear sets (can't wait to lose those horrible passenger pegs and bars) and mirrors.

Well, I'm having a hard getting the modification addiction under control. Today I purchased a CNC Racing rearset, Rizoma mirrors (radial), a Rizoma front sprocket cover, ducabike covers for clutch, front brake and rear brake reservoirs, a new rear sprocket hub and an Oberon clutch slave. This stuff all came from Randall at Bellissimoto - who is beyond excellent and helpful. The only problem is that he mentioned I should not stop here and go ahead and get belt covers and a steering damper.

The addiction continues.

Cortech tail bag enroute for my ride to Virgina this weekend, and hopefully Ocean City as long as Irene didn't completely destroy it.

Pretty sure Ocean City was mostly spared.
