My M821

It's been a year since I've had it and I'm hoping it's a keeper so I thought I'd post up!

After about 60 miles I got knocked off by one of those Uber type cabs doing a dodgy manoeuvre (my first crash), I was fine but the bike had some light (but expensive) damage. I've yet to be paid out but I have the bike back!

Here it is after I got it back, still missing the tank decals


To do list:
Tail tidy
LED indicators
Maybe some better handlebars

Wish list:
Brembo RCS
Gecko Racing rearsets
Carbon and shiny bits
Suspension (Unlikely to be anytime soon at the prices I've seen )

In the meantime I need to ride the damn thing as the current mileage is embarrassing

Glad you're OK and the bike is almost fixed too - just in time for summer which is apparently starting soon!

That is decent for a UK winter and after an off. I have the first service to do on the wifes M821 this week. The niece is getting hers done on her M821 in a week.

rac3r have a look at the LED indicators on the panigale, they're a smaller version of the OEM indicators that's on your bike but to my eye a dam sight neater than the DP led indicators and cheaper...

Just fitted LED indicators to the rear of my Supersport, they were about £20 a set including the fittings, but they are sequential so very noticable. See the video on my blog post and you will see what I mean. They are the same fittings for the wifes M821.

Oooh I like those sequential ones and £20 seems a good deal! Do you mind if I ask where you got them from?

I bought them from ebay China, but you need the little plastic coffin shaped things and a Ducati plug to fit them to the bike. If you want I'll sort out a list of parts and edit the blog post.

If you need the ducati-style connectors, you can get them from here:

They are one of the bits that you need, but you can buy a pair wired with leads and female bullet connectors to plug into the indicators so that they are plug and play for those who are less mechanically minded.
