Time to start modding

Well now both bikes have gone its time to start modding. Not too much but the usual things. I have made a start today with hopefully a bargain compared to DP parts prices. Just got a carbon front sprocket cover. They are different shape to the usual monster a good marketing ploy by Ducati there then

It was a buy it now price so no bidding at £39.99 which compared to ducatis £79.99 is a bargain.
Not sure whether to leave doing the pressure plate and cover until after the first service. I have these items already.
Most importantly is the crash bungs on front wheels and frame. Im looking at the R&G site and around the £110 and a bit for both. If anyone knows of a site cheaper can you let me know but for 696/1100 .
The exhausts I really want to do. Waiting on a set.

really annoyed at myself as I was watching the sale of top carbon fibre tank keyguard piece retailing at over £180. Forgot to log on yesterday and went for £50 1 bid.

You could get a set of these for the frame (simply bolt to it):

Barracuda Crash Bungs

You can get some discrete fork protectors that look like your bar-ends from JHP for about £15.

If you go for the carbon hugger, you can get a complimentary carbon chain guard that finishes the job off nicely from carbonworld.de

No it wasnt and am very interested in seeing the quality. Its says its aviation quality and better than dp but will wait and see. For the price I hoping its a good deal. Its also stated as UV stabilised so no fading.

Im not so sure about them frame ones. In the end I have got the R&G aero shaped ones and the front fork ones. Not bothering with swing arm as wont be able to use paddock stand without unbolting it.
Cost me £117 but the forks alone are £1500 + so well worth it. Never had them on any bike but always say you should so I have.
Will take a look at hugger. It was last on my list as it looks ok for now but just noticed the chain exit guard and yes would look better in carbon.

Thanks for all advice guys.

This looks similar to the one I got. Maybe same maker.
