I was thinking of doing the carbon wrap thingy on my pipes. Not sure if it's any good to my darling though... heard that it might overheat the engine or something?

Actually I was asking whether anyone wants to practise with me (not just you alone) heh. But I think you have enough practise already with your family hehe

 

I don't know much about carbon wrapping the pipes. Maybe you can anodise them instead? Will look cool (still able to see the DUCATI wording) and colour won't come off like painted surfaces. Maybe motocafe can enlighten us? He is the expert in modding! Have you seeked advise from Mike yet? I think he is quite innovative and creative in this kind of thing too

Hi,

I have a pair of titanium exhaust hanging in my store room.

I used to have them wrap with some cheap carbon alike sticker at SGD$ 5.00 each pc.

All it takes is a total of 3 pcs to fully wrap both exhausts.

 

Took me some 3 hours to wrap them both without much bubbles.

I am very sure it'll not heat up your engines be it high or low mount the exhaust.

 

The first time I did it, lasted only 2 months.

After that, I made the 2nd attempt and it lasted for 4 months.

 

Anyway, one of these days, I'm going to wrap them up again.

Oh yes, here's a pic of it taken some 6 months ago.

No lah, not expert. Michael is the expert - could not have done my monster without his help.

 

FYI, my anodised pipes are holding up very well. They were done by M-Technik located @ Paya Ubi Ind Park 2. You will need to drill out the rivets and disassemble the aluminium sleeves from the exhaust (DIY).

Bro,

 

Mike Swapped my Battery with his, the one i had was clearly more new. Anyway, i change that Battery at Minerva for a Brand new one and they claimed the one i had was one of their unwanted ones. Mike didn't mention anything to me when he switched Batteries with me on the First day i collected my Bike from him which Failed to start.

 

Errrm. Do you know what's really going on?

Nope bro just passing the message..mayb u shld clear up with him if that's the case..

Hi D.O.C.

 

My paintjob was done by RSP next to KC. Not up to my expectation but he did give me a decent price. Had to send back some parts for touch-up because of paint drips & imperfections. The boss was not too happy as he felt that I should not expect too much for the price I paid. So if you are not fussy (eh, like me), can try lah.

 

Anyway, check with Michael and see. RSP has done quite a number of jobs for Michael's customers.

Hi Pro Dero,

That was my bike before the paintwork.

I bought it from somebody and claim to be a titanium termis pipes.

They are hanging in my storeroom now.

 

I currently have a total of 3 pairs of exhaust.

1. As shown in pics 2. Stock 3. Aftermarket CF weird looking short and loud pipes.

 

How much would you be comfortable to part away for the pair as show in the pic?

Maybe we could make a deal since it's not in use for the past 6 months.

 

Cheers!

Guys ... my fren is selling his bike. All I can say is that it is not a commuter bike, he takes care of the bike and it is always sheltered parking. Give it a look or pass onthe word.

Hi i am a monster newbie here... would like to check with the experienced monster riders out there if you guys are facing any problems when u r opening your throttle during start up. My monster seem to be "veri" slow in respond when i opened my throttle even if i turned the throttle to fully open...nothing happens. Most of the times it takes two to three rev before i can hear the engin responding...
