D4RKO wroteSo, after a few niggles including warped discs the bike passed the Manx vehicle test and I have been out riding throughout the MGP / Classic TT. Even won an award at the Italian bike night which is nice!
Over the winter I will sort out a few minor issues and perhaps have a go at making an airbox although the bike runs great on the pod filters
So for now a few finished pictures..
Lovely bike , you lucky boy living on the IOM.
On the Airbox front. I made one using the lower part of the original ducati moulded plastic part (So the injectors fitted) and then using 1mm thick PVC sheeting and corner profiles pop riveted it all together. I used/bonded in a VW Golf K and N filter in the front as that was the biggest I could fit between the frame rails. Firstly I made it from cardboard and then perfected it when I used the PVC sheeting. I sealed certain areas using a black adhesive/silicon medium. Photo attached.
