Wink My new bike: 2008 Ducati 1098

Hey Guys:

After days of waiting, the bike I ordered is finally here today. It's a 2008 Ducati Superbike 1098. I could have the red one pretty much anytime but I insist on yellow.





Here's some of the pictures from day 1. Enjoy and Comments are Welcome!


__________________________________________________ ____________________________
Bike being prepped at the dealer, notice the stock exhaust was off the bike in order for my Termignoni exhausts to be installed:




Ducati 999 on the right of my 1098:



Installed Xenon Lights from www.BimmerXenon.com/ducati.html



Finally get it in the garage:








View of the 1098 Instrument & OEM Showa Steering Damper, I'm getting a Ohlin Steering Damper replaced tomorrow:





Termignoni Exhaust on along with the Termignoni new air-filer, ECU & bracket:




Stock Ducati 1098 Exhaust & ECU:




LED Signal lights on the 1098:






Replaced my clutch cover with the Vented-Carbon-Fiber Cover:






The new re-designed Marchesini wheels on Ducati Single-Swing-Arm (Yes, they are back!!!):





Shots of the rear-end:







Gotta Love these TWO pictures:






1098

__________________________________________________ ______________________________

These pictures are what I have so far, I will have an update page of this 1098 bike just like my Ducati 996 page: http://www.jimmy540i.com/ducati.htm , please stayed-tuned and check back soon.

Thanks and comments are welcome!

Regards,
Jimmy540i

Ok update pictures. The carbon fiber Ducati decals I order had came today, so I took off the old one and put up the new, check it out

These carbon-fiber graphix matches the CF Termignoni Exhaust, Heat Shield & Clutch Cover:









Next stop, the Xenons & Ohlins Steering Damper (still waiting for the shipment). Stay tuned
