Hey guys,

Go to https://www.takumiproject.com/Sport_Classic/pics.htm

And check out my new Ducati with my FJR in the background.

Hundreds of Ducati pictures and I couldn't find yours after a concerted scrolling and clicking campaign. How's this really FJR-specific?

Moving thread to it's new home until/unless it does......

Great Ducs though!

OOPS.

Sorry. I ment to put it here.

My FJR is right behind my Ducati in the first section of pictures.

Is that the battery under the rear fender?

That is the battery under the rear fender--right where it will catch all the **** thrown by the rear tire (tyre).

The Duc guys apparently wanted the bike to look as "period" as possible but ,they built a modern bike,too. The battery is enclosed in a plastic box to protect it while maintaning the look of an exposed battery. Pretty cool,I think.

I am looking for a hugger,however.

That's a beautiful Smart, David. Congrats!!!

Looking forward to reading a longer-term report on it.

I would just be worried about connections and damage.

The look is cool though...

Wasn't that hard to find!

Purty Ducs! Some ****-head here in town just opened a Ducati store. *******! I hate him! He even put this POS in the window to further annoy me:

Dammit all to hell! How dare he do this!? It should be illegal to do that.

God I want one of those for my garage! :dribble: Headaches and all.

TWN... no Duc for me, but if I see you along side the road while riding my new FZ-1 next year I'll stop to help you with repairs and then give you a ride to your destination while you are waiting on parts to arrive, okay?

Wanna buy my 06 FZ-1 when my 07 FJR gets here? :lol: :bleh: :haha:

:lol: RogerB

WwwwoooooooOOOOh there Sparky!!!

BIKE REPAIRS!

Not to rain on your parade, but have you noticed that they've installed the CHEAPEST two piston calipers that Brembo has ever made on that $14K 2V air cooled ducati? Can't believe they cheaped out on the radial calipers on that bike. If you want to have some real braking power you better install some four pad calipers and sintered pads on that baby !

Otherwise, nice bike although I like the sport way better.
