r/Ducati

The rear shock gets really hot and my leg touches it when i’m at a still.

A few weeks back I posted a picture of a slightly ropey Ducati 1199R that i purchased. You all said to ditch the wings and the shell stickers, you were all correct. After and before photos where it absolutely does look better.

Left an unfortunate hole each side that has been plugged with a bolt, otherwise looks fine from 3 meters away.

Next is to find a magnesium clutch cover to replace the standard one someone has put on and give it a ruddy good clean for the weather to cool in a month and get some rides in.

Hi ducatifriendos this is my new and first bike!

New to bike world.

Its 35k km and i will have to check belts and valves in 10km. Any tip or advice about maintenance or functioning is welcome! Thanks.

Stay safe!

DUCATI Panigale V4 on red, for weekends trips.

My 23 year old needed some overdue maintenance. Got most of it done. More to come!

Today I signed contracts to trade in my '23 Panigale V2 white beauty for a '26 Streetfighter V2 red devil.

Hopefully my back will love the change even though my heart probably won't.

My 1999 900ss has two problems I can’t find the answer to:

1. The clutch slips from time to time whenever under load, usually not within the first 5-10 mins of riding (could it be clutch dust between clutch plates?)

2. When the bike warms up, it “chokes”, or “sputters” like it’s misfiring or not getting fuel. It feels like I’m letting off the throttle and then pops. Usually at 4K RPM not under load.

Any help with these would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Just looking for the year and model, you guys are usually pretty great at this

For a first-seasoner, what else would you recommend?

I’ve owned my 2021 SFV4s for about a month now and it’s easily the most fun I’ve ever had on a motorcycle. I honestly still cannot believe that I own a Ducati! I just got the recall taken care of and an annual service out of the way.

The stock exhaust sounds fine but I’m looking to upgrade to something else. I’m between the Arrow and CS racing exhaust at the moment. I’m thinking about getting bar end mirrors at some point too.

Any and all recommendations for modifications are appreciated!

I’m so extremely stoked to be a part of the Ducati community.

Hello everyone, it seems like this is a pretty common occurrence with Ducati in general, but my rear brake has been incessantly squeaking. Especially at low speeds. To the point that I’ve had multiple people try and tell me that there must be something wrong with them 😂 I was just wondering if anyone knows of a possible solution other than just cleaning the caliper and rotor since I’ve already done that. I’ve also put about 2600 miles on it, so they are definitely broken in.

(Pic just cuz)

I’ve had some crazy bikes. So I thought…. This thing is insane. Just got first service done and pipe and dyno tune. This thing is crazy. So crazy I’m picking up a twin Streetfighter v4s to go along with her in a few days. Did the arrow slip on on the pani. Love it but itching to put the termi on sfv4s.

Okay so, had a friend rebuild her, gonna have her inspected by Ducati to make sure I’m still good for the track.

I kept all original fairings, and most OEM parts in a box I’m putting in my storage unit.

What do you guys think of the fairings?
