Thanks @SBK-SP My initial thought was exactly the same as yours, of using a foam filter with a stainless steel mesh screen to hold it. I actually already purchased the foam filter and stainless steel mesh screen before I purchased the K&N air filter. But creating a mounting to hold the stainless...

What next hmm.. Ok... K&N ... I spent hours on K&N website try to find any air filter (for any bikes) that meet my dimensional requirements. You see, my MS Production Carbon Air Box (with larger air intakes) does not have any provision to install air filter. I bought the BMC air filter for the...

Wow, this is a great technical track build. Can't wait to see more updates from you. I also just bought that STM Clutch Slave Cylinder in the same Red color, because they came in 28mm, while the Oberon that I previously had was 29mm. My STM evoluzione SBK clutch was not releasing with 29mm...

Hi @Aharp , this is a spectacular project, However, isn't the V4R has 998cc displacement? What kind of modification that you plan to do (mechanically) to make the V4R top end fit the 1103cc Panigale V4S?

In the meantime, my order for several different sizes of RayChem rubber heat shrink for my wire harness modification project arrived, so I immediately use it to further protect the Rockford Fosgate ground wire where it bend near the Motocorse Exhaust Manifold: Stay tune, things are getting...

Luckily, I found a Flasher Relay that designed for LED turn signal (prevent hyper flashing without the need to add resistor) and directly compatible with the Ducati socket for the Flasher Relay: However it is larger than Ducati original flasher relay, so I had to move it several time until...

Now, time to pay attention to the Main Negative Ground Cable. Initially, I want to purchase a brand new ground cable from Ducati, but they are no longer available as new parts. The ground cable that came with my 998 is still in very good condition, but I just feel it is not perfect if I am not...

Hmm.. what was next yah... ok let me see... I am trying to figure out how to install the brake lever in combination with the larger rear master cylinder I took from my Panigale V4S because the super nice looking lever that came with Motocorse Rear Set for 1198 kit just doesn't fit right. Since...

I have the Akrapovic low-mount exhaust, which came standard on my Ducati model (but not the racing slip-on), and now I have the SC-Project full system WSBK high-mount on my bike. From my observation, a low-mount slip-on or low-mount full system has a technical advantage because it is a shorter...

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...
