Just cause I'm out of the Job, doesn't mean I can't keep modding......
More Details soon  ;D


Well I finally got my finger out and finished paying for my Brembo Goldline upgrade Kit and here it is in all it's Glory
And I'm keeping the Coffin Master, I prefer the look of them, I know that is not fashionable, but I don't care it's my bike! and anyone who doesn't like it can get Bent! (Although I mean that with love and Respect!  ;D )

The Goldline upgrade for the S2R 800 is now a very rare species, when I was talking to the Parts Manager at Ducati Australia, it is listed in Italy as NFR (Not for reorder)/NLA (No longer available) it hasn't been a big seller in Australia (According to Ducati Australia only about 3 or 4 kits have ever been sold, including this one) and Ducati Italy has only sold about 70 or 80 kits worldwide) So Ducati is no longer going to be offering them as a kit, which is a shame, I picked that all up ready to go for just under $1k, so once they are gone in Italy, it is finished.


And here Desmo is giving his Seal of Approval, so Swing arm on this Weekend, and then Brake kit on during the week.

is it powder or paint and dose sss bearing housing still fit with paint , and dont want to see it there want to see it on the bike , its a good job tho cheers bazz [thumbsup]

Mods never stop.  ;D
Nice looking paint, I am sure we'll see it on the bike soon.

bazz20

with the roads covered in black ice its time too do more mods  [thumbsup]

CairnsDuc

It's paint, and the masking tape has not come out of the bearing housing as I took the Photo.
I have a customer of the Store I work for is a Industrial coater/Painter, he Sand Blasted it and painted it for me for free, The Paint cost me a bottle of Jim Beam Black (Jotun Industrial Paint).
I'm going to get the Painter a bottle of something as well, he did a great job and in very quick time ;D

It's still curing, so I'm not rushing to put it on, I'm going to start doing a very slow rebuild on the weekend.
Last thing I want to do is scratch up all his hard work.

Now, all I have to do is finish paying for the Goldline Brake upgrade kit, and my Modding will nearly be complete. [evil]

Oz is laid back - that's a good thing, but when I visit it's usually because I browse through "unread" and there you are. Plus CairnsDuc helped me with the brake kit project (or not), so I enjoy hearing what he's up to.

Good looks? I don't think so [roll]

CairnsDuc - posting the new pictures of The Kit wasn't fair of you [bang]
They will haunt me forever if I let the opportunity pass by. It's just such a bargain, damn it!

Post pictures and impressions when they're on, please - just to push me over the edge ;)
