Next, I prepared the coolant mixture for filling my radiator: Then since the fuel pump has been installed to the gas tank, it is time to install the Motocorse Gas Tank Cap with Motocorse Titanium Bolt Set: Done:

Something must be wrong, maybe the flow of coolant was partially blocked, or the coolant mixture is incorrect, or the flow of air to the radiator was blocked somehow... Also changing radiator cap to larger pressure should not have any bad effect. Maybe start with changing the coolant with...

Thanks @PanigalePilot 😀 Talking about the Ti Adapters with cooling ring (M14 to AN6 adapters), I need to plan how I am going to route the Goodridge 6AN fuel hose inside the airbox, thus I am doing some tests routing below: Then I bought more Staubli DryBreak QuickDisconnect and Goodridge...

There are a few other iterations because, either the 2 In and Out fitting hit each other and I am unable to fully tightened them, or they hit the surface of the fuel pump base plate, or they hit the vertical cylinder head... But eventually, I did not use this configuration... because the...

Next, I am back to assembling the fuel pump, use Toyota Rubber Grease to make it easy to insert the Ducati Genuine/OEM rubber hoses: Then I use Titanium Bolt for the Clamp, from ProBolt (ProTi does not make a bolt in this size, so I bought from ProBolt): Then I am installing the whole...

Again, another progress from a few weeks ago: Bought more AntiFreeze Coolant in preparation to fill the radiator: The ProTi Titanium Nuts for the plastic bracket to hold the fuel filter arrived, and I install with Loctite: The bolt also ProTi Titanium: Also bought some ProTi SELF-TAPPING...

Start filling up the engine with Motul 300V oil (remember, that Stahlbus oil drain valve I just installed is a valve that normally off position, until I insert the mating drain valve, that is why I can just fill the engine with putting on the cap): Full for now, will check again once I turn...

Next (although this was done a few weeks ago): I installed my Fumoto Oil Drain Valve, but it just stick too low to the ground, reducing already low ground clearance of the deep sump: So I decided to replace it with Stahlbus quick disconnect oil drain valve: Yes, I bought several different...

Wow, it's a beauty @PanigalePilot :love:

A few more Staubli Dry Break Quick Disconnects and Goodridge heat-resistant sleeving just arrived from Pegasus Auto Racing Supplies Pegasus Auto Racing, most of the time, has all this RARE Staubli in stock, and their price is normally the lowest too. It only took about 1 week for the order to...

A few posts above (and almost 2 weeks ago), I used the first version of Rizoma Stealth Mirror for First Generation (2018 to 2024) Panigale V4S to imagine what it would look like on my 998, and immediately, I want it that way. So, I decided to buy one of the first batch of Rizoma Stealth Mirrors...

The latest Rizoma Stealth Mirror for Ducati Panigale V4 Year 2025 (yes, Year 2025) arrived yesterday. I bought this not for my Panigale V4S 916 25 Anniversario but for my Ducati 998 project. However, I am posting it here so any of the reader who is buying the latest 2025 model can see how nice...
