Does such a thing exist?

**jim shea** · 16 Mar 08, 12:13 PM

Being new and excited I am trawling web sites in the hunt for MTS accessories and I am getting fed up!

Every new web site holds the promise of shiny or pretty Ducati things to add to my new bike; but when you get in to it, they all seem to do bits for everything but the MTS.
Does anyone have a list of people that supply accessories for a MTS?
Or shall I start one?
All entries gratefully received. Please stipulate where they are located and a www for them.
p.s.
I have found a headlamp protector that I bought from; EVL Plastics: High Quality Motorcycle Headlight Protectors in the UK. I have fitted it and it works well...

Thanks mate, will do....

Steve at ItaliaMoto is a good bloke... He had the extender and he is researching what v piece could fit my bike...
The most helpful guy I have spoken to so far, next most helpful are the guys at Snell....

Cheers,

Agreed, the DP belly pan is fugly, flimsy, and affords little protection to the engine,IMO. Some of the Monster ones should fit and look better than the MTS one.

This any good, 200 euros. Would look ok colour matched to bike, or not!

Spike,
That one looks good... does it come painted like the one in the pic??.. btw, do you speak or read German,

the google translator page does not work for me on that site?

**jim shea** · 03 Apr 08, 09:34 AM

Bloody site crashes my pc everytime ; it keeps forcing a 'disk check', whatever that is? and it takes ages to reboot.... Typical, the one site that has something I want and I can't get on to it!

I have asked the multistrada.net boys if they have any knowledge of them....I presume they are reputable??
How come the German site has a lot of stuff for the Mts??

**spike748** · 03 Apr 08, 04:34 PM

Hi Jim,

It's a pain you are having difficulties on that site, there are lots of good looking bits of kit on there. That belly pan will have to be painted to suit, they look good as they follow the lines of the bikes body work.

As far as translation goes, my German is rubbish, mind you, so is the translation on their pages!! That bellypan translates as a "Gfk Motorbugspoiler, unpainted, with TÜV and cultivation holding sentence."
I get the gist of it but I'm lost at the cultivation holding sentence bit!! 195 euros seems reasonable if you can spray, or know someone.

Are you interested in touring at all? I am about to sell the red panniers off my MTS. I will post pics up in the Ads section on here before I try to Ebay them.
