You've read the other post and know my bike went kapoots.

So where am I now with the bike?

I bought an 1100 EVO motor. Mechanically, its a drop into the frame and the S2R swingarm mounts up nicely.
Electronically, I still havent found a solution to the oil temp (the sensor is in front of the rear cylinder). I may swap sensors out.
I have to figure out how I am suppose to mount the oil cooler since the EVO mounts to the frame. I'll probably swap valve covers and use the original temp sensor.

the TBs SHOULD fit. They look like they will mount up. I havent checked for certain yet.

I need to swap coils, I was going to go with Ca-cyclework coils, but I ended up finding an S2R800 coil for $25 on ebay.

The local guru shop (European Cycle Services) said they can flash the ECU and drop any map I want onto it (custom of course). Though I think I will still need a PCV since I need a dedicated spark map. They arent sure until they see what the yare working with. If i run a PCV, ill be able to run a dual map (fuel conserving commuting mode and weekend mode).

Can Anyone comment on the spark map? Someone said that I need to swap the timing gears, but if you can just edit the spark map wouldnt that be easier?

Other then that, here are some teaser pics.

Mock Fit on saturday.


Clear on Bare




Next up is the Tank. I dont like the way raw tank and raw frame looks. I might do something different with the tank. There is a dent on it and I dont know how I can pull it out without disturbing the finish. I dont mind the repair look. My frame has tons of marks on it from going down. I think it adds character and history to my bike.

Fuel and spark... microsquirt with a wide-band.

Sorry about your bike He Man.
This is big time. Be really watching this one.

[Raux]

Why not just get the Evo ecu and remap to remove the immobilizer so you can run custom guages?
as far as oil cooler build tabs on the frame and run something like the NCR or SC Project cooler.

im flashing the stock marelli ECU to a new map, but im not ure u can edit the spark map.

Clear on Bare

Let us know how the paint holds up.  I poke around on MTBR's frame builders forum (bicycle frame building that is) and the subject of clear over bare comes up about 5 times a year.  People always want the look of Ti or stainless without the expense.  The builders always say the same thing.....over time it will rust under the clear.  Be curious to see how it holds up.  Keep us posted.

Discussion of clear on bare -  http://forums.mtbr.com/frame-building/clear-coat-only-steel-705231.html

A few of the builders are starting to experiment with clear ceramic coating.

Need some help.

the kickstand bolt for the S2R1k and M1100 are different. Does anyone know what threaded bolt will fit the 1100EVO motor?

also heres earlier this morning. shes a rolling chassis now.

I wondered teh same thing mikeb. There is some rust on the frame as is, and i know rust breeds rust, but u need water to cause the reaction to start....so i took a torch and hit the frame right before i painted it. I was hoping to get all the water out of the pores. You could see the metal change colors as oil and water was evaporating off the frame itself. Ill snap pics of the problem areas (where i left it to rust a bit) and update in a few months to see where it stands.

if you are talking the actual pivot bolt

821.1.103.1A  is the 1K
821.1.103.2A is the 1100

ROTATION PIN 748-998B/02

so old SBK

While the garage looks a mess, I have some serious envy for you. Tear down and rebuild that's some serious cool stuff. Hope to someday be able to do similar.

im talking about the bolt that holds it onto the engine case. wouldnt call that a pivot bolt.

[Raux]

I cross referenced usin ducati omaha oem parts website

[He Man]

771.1.048.1A on the 1100 EVO, but i just want to buy one locally. I just need the thread and pitch.

edit nvm! if u try to order it on omaha, they tell u the size. for $1.99 i might just go to the local dealership and pick it up there tomorrow

He-man I have to give you credit for taking on a seriously complex project - all the more reason to be surprised by the frame prep. That's a lot of work to get down to a bare frame, to not prep by glass beading first - or something. I understand the desire for the bare metal look, I frequently take the scotch-brite pad to my Termi pipes with some WD-40. But this seems like a lot of work to risk on clear sticking to bare metal.

Anyhow - great project and looking forward to following along - Wish mine had a metal tank!

i really dont think there are going to be any cohesion issues. the clearcoat is tough as nails (ive used it before). Time will tell. I just love the raw undisturbed look. although it isnt fancy rolled steel (its just welded) its a really great finish. Ive got more scars on teh frame than most people from the hits and crashes, and all of that stuff shows under the clear which is cool.

What color frame plugs should I get? I still dont know what color the tank will be.

it was not that messy when i started. I just started having no place to put things and i keep working with my bum on the floor!
