Interesting project FB - but a very odd location for the turbo. Keeping muck off it from the rear wheel is going to be near impossible. Most V installs I've seen put the turbo at the side of the engine, just above the crankcase.

This gived a shorter route for the outlet to the airbox, and although exhaust routing is difficult, at least you should end up with the same length headers. The under headstock set-up on the Ducutters site is also well executed. Be interested to see how Turbostrada turns out.

Think it's fab - just for the hello of it - a one off, no one else has one - and I agree - what could possibly go wrong??

Many happy rides sir - have fun!

Totally nuts, but a cool project. You bringing it to the MONSTER weekender?

Never mind cleaned, he should get it painted - just seen a pearlessant white 1100MS in Ducati Daytona (yes, Daytona Florida, I know, I know...) - looks fantastic!
