Bought a new bike....

[rlee02135]

'05 Ducati 749 with mono tail, termi exhaust, rearsets, sargent seat, open clutch cover and a ton of carbon fiber goodies.

overall, I love this bike. riding position is a bit uncomfortable compared to my F4i, (higher footpegs and lower handlebars) but the termignoni sounds so sweet and the dry clutch is awesome.

by the way, my F4i is for sale if anyone is interested. it's an '06 with 8800 miles

WOW

Looks great. That used to be a bip, did he give you the other tail with the bike?

edit: Whats the story with the black mirrors?

[burnham]

I've got 2 air filters for that bike you can have if you want. They're new and I have no use for them, unless I come steal your bike. Looks nice.

He said he bought it with the Performance GP Tail installed.

The mirrors are carbon. I might get some clear lenses for them.

That would be great! I'm planning to do some maintenance before I get her on the road for spring. (Oil Change, etc.) hope it doesn't need a belt change...

It's no big deal if you don't have it, people are swapping bip to mono all over the place and selling the old tails so if you wanted the rear seat it wouldn't be hard to find.

Never seen carbon mirrors for the xx9 before. Gives it a little bit of a different look, looks good. I'm sure they weren't cheap either knowing how much the stock plastic ones go for.

hope it doesn't need a belt change...

How many miles on it? Any service records? Don't be too scared of changing the belts, it isn't really hard. The only special tool you need is the cam gear holder and it isn't that much money.

Mmm, so nice.

Awesome bike.

noice...

I was in a minority and really liked the 749/999 Ducs.
(...but then, I think the Multistrada is beautiful so I wouldn't use me as reference with good taste!)

Congrats!

16k miles, no records. He said it would need an oil change and the belts were replaced at 12k.
