Re: Well you asked for another Ducati build

Flippin' 'eck Tony you don’t hang around, another fine build, well done 8) 8)

I can imagine it is nimble with that weight and power.

Don't you just love the simple fix when you are looking for something more complicated, well done to your friend and his multimeter :D :D

Re: Rear seat fairing needed.

Good luck in finding one with the bottom lugs intact as they are not the strongest points on the seat fairing. However I have seen occasionally an intact one appear on Ebay.

Re: The RD400 drag bike

I had a Quick Look on old road tests and CycleWorld in the USA tested the 1190 Adventure and got a 1/4 mile time of 10.6s.
