Members Bike - Gareth's Ducati ST2

I have been busy giving my ST2 a bit of a tarting up; here are a few images so you can see the fruits of my labour!

Recent additions:
ST4s (alloy) swingarm
Ducati Performance touring screen inc. bar risers
Bayliss themed decal kit to replace the old Foggy scheme
Plastics resprayed (bloody stone chips!)
Bling reservoir caps - more brown than gold!
14T front sprocket
And three coats of polish applied today!

Looking forward to getting some miles done this year!
Gareth

Looks very nice, I wish mine was that tidy... :wink:

How do you find the riding position with the screen and risers?

I can't decide whether to do similar with mine

I have the Performance fairing on my ST2 aswell. Also the raised grips. Wouldnt change back. Great riding and the fairing looks much better and isnt as bulky as the standard one....
Another advantage is that the covers around the dials arent in 4 pieces, but in 1.
Very neat and tidy on the inside now, no gaps etc. The screen sits nicely on the fairing. all in all very recommendable in my opinion......

A couple of quick questions about the Bar/screen mods, you guys have done.

Q1, Is it just a screen or fairing top section as well?

Q2, with the risers did you have to replace any cables/hydraulic pipes with longer ones?

Hi
the cans are shark and they were on the bike when i got it..... sound nice... low frequency humming and then turn screamers over 6000rpm (and thats in germany, so the are not open....)

the comfort kit is a full kit: the screen, the inside cover, the fairing itself is actually a 2 piece unit as it doesnt meet in the middle. there is a piece of sticky rubber delivered to put on the lamp which you can colour to give a look of having 2 lamps....
the 12mm aluminium handle bar distancers also belong to the kit. no changing of any cables is needed.

here is a neat pic of what the kit consists of and a photo of a red normal vs a red comfort...

http://www.ducatisaarland.de/abc_1.php?id=1923

this dealer is expensive, but the kit actually pops up on fleabay once in a while. mine was red and i had it sprayed to macth the black. cost me 370 euros (about gbp 225) alltogether

ps: paint the rubber red if you have a red bike..... not dark like they have done...
mine was red and now i used black nailpolish to get it to match again.... on the pic below only 1 layer was on. my wife has now blackened it completely... looks great...
