• Billet aluminium valve cover from MVS Performance in Germany (http://www.mvs-performance.de/Ducati...2V-valve-cover) Beautifully machined. I hadn't realised until I swapped them over that the originals are just black plastic. (I thought they were painted aluminium.)
• After experiencing a slight leak from the OE filter, (which tightening failed to fix), I thought I'd try the K&N alternative (KN-153) (http://www.knfilters.co.uk/search/pr...px?prod=KN-153) These come with a 17mm hex head, which makes removal easy and means you can tighten it to the correct torque (11 Nm) without the special wrench. It looks and feels of comparable quality to the OE version and, so far, no leaks!
