Okay I just looked through the 696 owners unite post, some cool pics and upgrades. Well 796 owners. now that the bike has been out a year already, let's see some of your mods and pics. There aren't many 796 videos out there or pics for that matter other than the Ducati intro videos. Mine are coming.

I will post some pics of my bike as soon as I figure out how. I am waiting on my fender eliminator to arrive at the moment. It should be here Saturday. This will be the first real mod if you don't count peeling the stickers off of the frame. Next will be to get rid of the charcoal can and install the euro shroud. Exhaust is really the next big thing on my list and I already know what I want. I am still trying to decide which direction to go with modding my machine. I'm open to suggestions though. There are a lot of carbon parts available that would look really good but I have always considered carbon to be "ricer" stuff. If the carbon parts were more of a functional type mod it would be an easier decision but they are almost all cosmetic.

I just got my 796 and I haven't started modding because I'm overseas but have already ordered the Rodan box some passenger grab handles a new seat from Sargents. The bike (its used) has GPS already so I don't need to worry about that. And thats about it. But I would like to get a new fly screen or whatever its called. I have been looking around and some seem kinda big some seem almost the same as the OEM one. Does anyone have advice on one that doesn't look out of place on the bike but works better then the OEM one?

I have the Magical racing with the smoke screen, my bike has CF pipes so that colour matches the screen. It works great at speed.
Pricey though, had I seen that DeLight Suzuka one prior I like the looks of that one, there is another French company called EPR or something, they make a nice one as well. Stay safe "over there!!"

I like the Magical Racing one too but I don't plan on having any carbon fiber pipes on my bike or any other carbon. With that said will it look out of place?

I went ahead and ordered the Magical Racing flyscreen. I think I'm going to ask my GF to take it and get it painted red before I get back.

You will like the looks, it looks better in person than the picture. I will get mine painted as well, right now it is just the carbon, might be a winter project, lol. I was going to post some pics, but I have to get photo-bucket or flicker.

Hi all. This is my 796, all I have done so far is chop the tail and body work. I think my next mods will be arrow titanium cans and bar end mirrors. Some may call the orange ugly (looks way better in person), but I like it.

Thanks brix!
It is a crappy cell phone pic, it looks darker in person. I find myself liking it more and more as the days go by.
