YOU!!!!   >:(
You snatched those wheels from the classifieds before I could.  :-\
[cheeky]

I mean there are only but so many of us S4 owners out there...... [cheeky]

Since I took these wheels from right under you I'll give you first dibs on the S4 tank on ebay.  Think asking price is $750.00

Flat black

Gloss white

Outside the box design (literally, some of the patterns extends outside the bike when drawn)

KTM Superduke R inspired


You'll be famous  8)

That aint a bad idea......

Not sure why Ducati didn't make the S4 the way DP did my tank and cowl.  I like this combo a lot.

Anyone know if there are aftermarket passenger pegs for the S4.  Now that I've gotten rid of the stock rearsets, I need something to carry a passenger if needed!

You have the Ducabike rearsets right?

Not sure if they work with 1st gen monster rearsets but definitely worth asking Jeff H.

Rizoma and LSL make passenger brackets but they might be proprietary to their systems.

Found Sil Moto Spaghetti headers for an 851/888.  Will the header work with my engine and current slipons?

What diameter is that system?

I think the header will work with the engine, but I haven't tried it.
The only interference area I'd expect would be with the swingarm.

No idea if it'll work with the slipons.

Pipe diameter of the spaghetti system might be larger.

Not sure if the pattern of the exhaust flange is the same or not.

Another thing to consider is will the pipes clear the ST style DSS swingarm?

The 851/888 swinger was the same as the earlier framed bikes.

A whole heap of relevant info here:

Basically, won't fit without modding, and likely a trade of a bit more high-rpm power in exchange for a big hole in the upper midrange.

Thanks for the link Speeddog.  Likely stay with current exhaust setup as the Spaghetti headers were going to cost about $1500.00 on top of the work needed for fitment and minimal gains.... [roll]

New R/R, stator and new LSL urban headlight installed.  I can finally call this project almost** complete.

Tricknology

Given the recent trouble with the rectifier/regulator, any thoughts towards relocating it?
