[slow bro]

Not too bad. but might still cost a bit. Good luck mate.

[Captain]

Good time to put raceglass on :ayyy:
What's the go with the bottom of the forks? Can you just clean it up a little, or do you need to replace the fork(s)?

[ozducati]

while i had it apart, i changed the rear subframe to an alloy one, along with the fender eliminator, and a carbon undertray for the rear seat section.. have a full carbon fibre set of fairings and seat to go back on it..

fork leg should clean up i think..

[Captain]

, and a carbon undertray for the rear seat section.. have a full carbon fibre set of fairings and seat to go back on it..

It's gonna cost a lot more next time ....

[ozducati]

It's gonna cost a lot more next time ....

there won't be a next time, and carbon will generally take more of a beating .. am now a dealer for a carbon manufacturer from Europe:ayyy:

[James]

Carbon :drool:

Bike has less injuries than you.....

[Steve R]

there won't be a next time, and carbon will generally take more of a beating .. am now a dealer for a carbon manufacturer from Europe:ayyy:

Better tell us some more about this!!! What can you get, just Ducati or all brands?

[ozducati]

unfortunately they only do carbon for Ducati, MV Agusta .. and a Ferrari..

ordered one of these amongst a bunch of other stuff ..

[Cedric]

That's gonna be one sweet Duc when you're done with it :ayyy:.. keep the pics coming, I loooooove carbon..

[ozducati]

thanks Cedric, the paintjob blew me away when i got it all back, a guy in Adelaide i know did it all for me, he's a bloody legend.. will have the bike back together in the next week or, will take some pics and post up

[SIX36]

Oz, could pm me some pics of what's available for a 848? Mainly a rear hugger.
Cheers

[ozducati]

PM sent .. can pretty much get anything for the 848/1098/1198 street and track / Hypermotard / Monster 696 & 1100 / 749-999 street and track / & MV Agusta F4 750/1000's ..

[Kris]

mate thats hardly any damage at all! You're one lucky mofo ;)

[ozducati]

I know, i think the bike almost flipped, landed on the nose and dropped back down on the right hand side.. hence the fork leg/bar end damage,, could've been a lot worse..

[wade193]

The painted carbon looks soooooo good. Look forward to seeing the finished product

[zRoYz]

I would have left the cf the way it was with no paint it would have been one of a kind in AUS, from the pics the cf has a very good finish & would have had a larger bling effect.

[adendes]

carbon lettering and pin strip, very nice

[ozducati]

am also getting a full set of race fairings in as well, am thinking about leaving these unpainted and putting them on with the tank to advertise my new little venture ..

[ozducati]

a bit of carbon never hurt anybody...

[clarkey]

outstanding Mick :mod_smilie_rockwoot

[Johnny]

Outstanding result in such a short time frame, well done mate :ayyy:

[ozducati]

thanks guys.. time flies.. was 11th July when i had the accident, but these fairings were already away being painted.. took me a month to get the bike out to start...

[*Oggy*]

Thats exactly what I mean about less is more.... the Carbon isnt "in your face".. Its when you start looking at the details, you can see the suptleness...

Very tastefully done.... :ayyy:

[ozducati]

thanks Oggy, would be hard for me to go all carbon....

[Railboy]

wow that looks hot... :ayyy:

what do you do for a living? Drug dealer????

[Johnny]

LOL, he sells hash moulded into fairings and calls it carbon fibre :lmao:






Hey, that may even work through customs :D

[ozducati]

johnny, don't tell everyone..

[Johnny]

:lmao:

My lips are sealed, much better idea than the boogie board though mate ...




edit = Jokes aside, cant believe how nice that come up, well done indeed and best of luck in your new venture... :ayyy:

[James]

Yeh mate, now that is heaps nicer than a stock 1198s.
Well done - it looks great :ayyy:

[ozducati]

thanks, after seeing a certain girl have an epic fail with a boogie board, i knew i had to do something different.. but they're hard to pack and take on holidays, too many questions..


"well sir, i miss my motorbike so i decided to bring some of it with me , but i don't know why your dog keeps sniffing and barking at it ..honest.. "

:lmao:


the guy that painted it is in Adelaide, does bloody good work..

[Andre]

:drool: Wow, fantastic attention to detail, thats gotta be the best Duc in OZ! IMO.
Love to see some photos of the whole bike completed!

[ozducati]

thanks, but there's plenty of nice ducs around, just making mine a little different..

[ozimoto]

Mate thats one great looking bike.:drool:

Contact Rapid Bikes about a story on it.It's worthy.:ayyy:

[_chado77]

[ozducati]

Bursi Evolution out of Italy :D

[1down5up]

very nice oz would love to see some more pic of what your doing and what ya selling carbon wise (lol) have ya got a web site for the biz yet mate even some addys for some of the gear ya getting from os c/f ducati stickers look great
if you paint that new c/f tank please use the c/f ducati stickers also is that tank a larger 1 as you will have to move the stearing damp as they do on the race factory bikes in wsbk

[ozducati]

1down, the CF letters and numbers showing on the fairings are not stickers, the painter masked the CF then painted over it leaving the CF exposed, then clear coated it all.. looks beautiful.. am in the process of setting up a website.. i have a shipment leaving Europe today, mainly 848/1098/1198 stuff, PM me if there's something your after and i will email you ..

[Foghorn]

Mate, it is simply looking incredible, when will it be seen at the track.

Me thinks it needs to run around The Farm:notworthy:

[ozducati]

haha.. i have been reading the Farm thread, would be nice to do a day up there.. my comeback dates for EC are 5th & 10th October.. have booked into yellow group to do a couple of days before we go to PI in November... will be first time back on the track.. i may even put my track fairings on before i come back to PI..

[Foghorn]

my comeback dates for EC are 5th & 10th October

Would like to be going around then myself, but head over to Saudi on the 14th, so won't tempt fate.

What did I just say........going to Saudi is tempting fate according to AUST Government Warnings.

Cheers Fog
