So i've heard. But tbh, i like the noise of this one. As for heat getting to it and reducing power, lets face it, wont be that noticable so i dont care lol. If it aint broken, dont fix it  lol.

Would look good dude
I've also been looking at oil caps and water caps from 'Forge'. Chrome ones, look nice as hell but abit pricey. Mabye one day in the future though. Like i say, im trying to do everything on a budget at moment as im abit skint. So im doing everything that i can d.i.y. Helps being able to get alot of stuff from work too like hose and paint etc.

Just painting the engine as it's got typical Ducati syndrome where all the paint flakes off. Although a respray for the bike is on the cards lol.

Nah, afraid not. I'd quite like one, but it's quite costly to convert them  lol. My uncles does sound tasty on his 1098r though. Especially with the new exhausts burbling away too lol.

Bad times lol. R1's are abit mental lol. Im just abit preferentail of italian styling and charecter. Saying that, have you seen the new R1? Oh dear lol. Went to the reveiling at Chersterfield Motorcycles. Sounds poo and looks worse lol. Especially the back end.

Rocker Cover on!
Fitted the rocker cover on my lunch break today so took some pics 
Mind the oil on the head, it's because the spare rocker cover i had was off a 205, and the breather came off at a 45degree angle and fouled the coil. So i couldnt get the breather pipe on So i had to run it around like that for a day and half and it leaked a small bit of oil lol.
Shall be cleaned at the weekend
Anyway, pictures:
Just a blue badge for it to be ordered now. I'll do that when i get paid... yes, i am that skint  lol.
