Strada or SP silhouette?

Does the market prefer a bogg standard 888 Strada as near original as possible or an 888 dressed as an SP4/SP5 'tribute' with the more stuff nicked from an SP the better - just asking for a friend!!

I have a Strada with a load of SP5 looking bits. But I also have all the bits to bring it back to standard. Best of both worlds.

Bits I have and have, or will be adding: -
Oil cooler
Bronze wheels
Underslung rear brake calliper
High level Termignonis (43mm headers version)
Carbon front and rear huggers
Carbon V piece
Original SPO rear frame (to go on)
Single rear seat (to be painted and go on)

If you were to sell how would you present the bike?

I would call her an 888 Strada, SP5 Tribute, (or something like that). All of the things that have been done to the bike are in period modifications, so nothing is really uncomfortable for the purists.

Also added full floating discs.

This is what she looks like currently (photo attached)

nice - presume you have painted your fork legs to look like SP5.

No the fork legs on the original bike were pretty scuffed up on the anodising, and these 900SL ones came up for sale, so they are original.

They were for sale from a company in Italy. I have tried looking for them, but can't find the details right now.

RSR in the UK do them in Carbon (keep your eyes out for 900 SL and FE models as the hangers are the same). https://www.rsrmoto.com/ducati-super...atte-rsr-moto/

What do you use as bushes for the type like RSR's with the large mount holes?

The holes are the same as the original Alloy ones. The bushes should be these.
