I just love Rizoma products. Used them on the BUSA back in the day. Oh, this stuff ain't cheap.  :o

Found some stuff that has been discontinued due to the year of my Ducati but I did manage to track everything I was looking for. Belt covers, rear sets and sprocket cover. Last one PJ's parts had in black.

Pretty good deal on belt covers and found rear sets $125.00 cheaper than most places. Still crazy price but these were wonderful on the BUSA. Adjustment will be a plus.

Yummy.

I think I know where this might go.  ;D Once I figure out the size to use. Getting into to much math for me.  ::)

It's official! Out of Control!

I agree!  ;)

OK, from what I can find out the stock clutch slave is 26mm. 30mm is the way to go. 30% more pull on the clutch and eliminates the clutch judder from takeoff.

Sell! Sell! Sell!

More research, 29 mm is perfect. Another sweet add on came today.

Done with restore projects. Burnt out, no desire to do anymore. This is my current trend and thankfully the selling of parts has been put towards this. Very little out of pocket. About 75% sure the CBX will be sold next month.

Now go test ride the Diavel and let me know. Won in a raffle? I could be so lucky.  ::)

I will race this Ducati with my new bike that I am trying to seal a deal on. As long as it's in a straight line, I will be confident. :)

Nice work you are doing to it.

Noise testing the new Scrambler. At 1:36 you can view the engine. For a quick bit anyway.

Yes, still have my eye on one in Phoenix. We touch bases every so often. If it's still for sale next month then we will see.

It's like the ST3 on steroids. Rear shock is ohlins, front Showa. Lighter aluminum swing arm, lighter wheels and bigger brembo calipers. Few more tweaks. 996 motor (3v) versus 916 on earlier models. (2v)

You are correct. This is the one to get if buying the ST. I keep in touch with Ed down in Phoenix as he listed this twice. Ed removes the ad if he gets busy. Had someone in Texas that was going to fly out and ride it back but I haven't heard anything.

I wanted it but didn't want the cash flow tied up. Told him if the CBX sells I'll give him a call. Original owner, senior rider with ecu and exhaust upgrades. New rubber, spotless with 8k on the clock. Has the luggage just not shown in pictures. He told me he would prefer I bought it because he knows how I keep things.

Will see. Either way is fine with me. Ride the scooter more than anything.  :D

No stable here, sold most.

I also love the strada. I keep low balling this one but emails are ignored.  ;D

Vegas is close by so I could ride it home.
