I agree on changing the mirrors, nice bar ends would look good imho

I personally love the standard mirrors, there's no way I will be changing mine.

I love yours and Andy's together, what a pair eh!

Very nice Anne. Love the exhausts

I also like my mirrors too strangely. Not seen any that float my boat. Probably because all mirrors are a pain on a bike.They either look bad and are good view or look good and a bad view.

Singletrack,
Firstly I really love your evo in black. Secondly the exhaust with the black bike looks really menacing.
Great job

Thanks for the nice comments.
I am really pleased with the look - I will just have to see how I get on without the screen.

I wasn't too bothered about replacing the mirrors but when i saw the DP ones I thought they would look good, and now I prefer them to the original ones.

uksurfer · 20-07-2011, 11:00 AM

looking good, i think the fluid pots could do with a change and maybe black bars would finish it off nicely?

Congrats

hope you really enjoy it!
Wow the new bikes look so tall!!!

Anne that screen does nothing. I have had mine off for 3 weeks and the first time was the track day.Ok so wasn't doing long stints but was doing over 100 down the straight. Its pure cosmetic and thats it. Its kind of cute but really does nothing. If I want it back on then its a few bolts but I think the bike looks more aggresive without it.

Does anyone else think that it must be a pain in the backside to do the belts on an Evo?

Not as much as on a superbike!

No more than most bikes. The vertical/rear is always behind the frame and the exhaust would be cool. Im sure Ducati made it easy enough for their engineers. I had mine done the other week and it took no longer than any other ducati.

Sorry to be a bit slow catching up, but that is looking great Anne! The Termi's look excellent and the overall look is stunning. Love the gloss black - never did like the semi-matt 'dark' paint. Proper gloss!
Ace!

I'm liking that alot!! Almost makes me think I should have waited for the evo, if they retained the Ohlins bits I probably would have done!

Health to enjoy....!
