New Roadracing (yes!) side covers

Thank you Silas (I think they came from you....)
The hidden bracket from the cover's lower corner to the M900 foot peg assemblies is a couple of mm too long to fit my passenger foot peg assemblies. Not enough to drill another set of holes.
I need time to decide if I like the more than my previous customized carbon covers.... Opinions?

I concur. Roadracing.

I'm not fond of either but the Road Racing is the least strange looking to me. You've got the whole S&M theme going
. I like your bike though, a lot. Looks like it would ride fantastic.

It really really does. Strange how much better an entry level bike can become.
What would you prefer other than these alternatives? (I would like to avoid the extensive rewiring required if going without the covers)

Well, call me boring but... since you have those fancy carbon wheels, cans, & belt covers why not some matching fancy DP carbon side covers? You can even get some OE Ducati S2R aluminum decals for them if you can't find any DP covers and have to source them elsewhere. In my opinion they would look a lot better.

Like those in the picture, that I had before? Or full size, non-modified?

The same ones that came from the factory with the S4RS, S2R1000 etc. or did you already have those and decided you didn't like them?

Yes, I think they're too long, so I cut them to line up with the seat. Plus the 'windows'. In carbon.

Oh so you don't like the OEM stock carbon side covers. I guess if it were me and I didn't like the covers I'd do the pain of cleaning up the wiring so I wouldn't need covers. Those would be my 2 options.
