You listened.  [clap]. Painting the rizoma belt covers black looks excellent.

Thanks Zooom

Or hit it with some wd40 and a brown scotch brite pad like it says in the DIY section for way cheaper to restore the silver pipes!

Penske rear shock fitted.  Suspension setup completed by MRP Motorsports.  Sil Moto's off and being shortened then headed to to Figure Engineering to be powder coated either silver or black.  

Now if He-Man can't do it, need to find someone who can take a stock headlight and drop a HID projector kit and hook up the ballasts.  Have all the stuff necessary just need someone to help with the work.  Also need a lens made as well... [beer]

@CCM900.  Thanks for the advice.  Got some pads and a new can of WD-40 and went to town.  Was able to get most of the midpipe cleaned and with the shortened cans, the rear is cleaned up nicely.

DucHead - did you need new/longer lines or just a reroute?

Hmmm...good question.   :P  It's been a while since I did it.  I do remember that I left the hoses attached to the throttle bodies intact.  I got the idea from Speedog.  If you want, I can take some pics under the tank tomorrow and post them up.

Here ya go.  Better get a few feet of 5/16" FI fuel line just in case.   :)
Right side.  I relocated the fuel pressure regulator from the aluminum brace that spans the throttle bodies.


Left side shots, pressure regulator, quick disconnects and fuel line routing:

Thanks for the pics DucHead.  

No problem, it really cleans up the look.  Ducati does a terrible job with fitment/routing of their lines, hoses and loom.   >:(

BTW, regardless of whether you reroute the fuel lines, if you add quick disconnects fit them in opposite directions to avoid connecting the lines incorrectly.
