Anyway, like many before me had said these words im officially done with it and adding parts haha
this year I just want to do as many trackdays as possible and maybe switch to race tires and get some tire warmers
2014 ducati 899
Parts list so far:
•Full 70mm termignoni system
•Ohlins...
Thanks Howard,
A truck helps a lot, this is my first one tho.
got a house a few years ago and I like to work on it myself and do some projects so that meant a lot of Home Depot trips, now with trackdays is perfect to take the bike to the track.
yes, loosing a friend is not easy
I still...
Lithium antigravity battery
a few other things like
Galfer wave rear brake disk
Front and rear titanium bolts for brake disks
Titanium magnetic drain oil bolt
Bike still had the stock masters with some “strada” shorty levers not sure if they are Chinese but were horrible abs the adjustment didn’t really work so I decided to upgrade
Brembo RCS 16 clutch and 19 brake
The panigales have a very narrow tank and at lean angle and hard breaking is hard to get a good grip on it.. to try to fix this I found this carbon fiber tank extension with Xline TechSpec side pads plus raceseats.Italy seat which is very grippy
At this point I still wasn’t jelling with the bike on lean angle so I decided to look for some adjustable Rearsets as I was still rocking the stock ones with rizoma pegs, I liked the grip but I thought I would feel better if they were s bit higher and further back
Narrowed down to woodcraft...
Another find on Craigslist for like $20
Dollars
Racing electric connectors /plugs
Kickstand delete
Fan delete
Tail light delete I believe (can’t remember)
The only one I’m not using is the headlight delete as is used on LED light on the 1199 but since the 899 doesn’t have them it doesn’t...
Trackday
The front end started feeling a bit weird mid day so I couldn’t push as I wanted but had lost of fun with friends, bike felt very different with all the weight difference but I need it to find what was wrong with the forks
One of my fork legs was longer
Paid some money to have them...
Took a break from gutting my kitchen to work on my bike
Reading the forums “i blame the forums”
Decided to remove the ABS pump amd lines and ordered core moto T lines straight to calipers
I also ordered and installed an ohlins steering damper
After the first track day on street fairings
I started looking for used fairings and found a great deal on a set of sharkskins with aluminum front stay and air ducts and they were also selling an aluminum subframe from a 1199R
The 899 has a steel subframe which is very heavy
