Definitely coming along nicely. Don't think it's been asked but did you upgrade your hearing system to something like a 32 amp system from Cycle Electric?

I had to check on that Panz as nothing was mentioned when the engine went in. Its an upgrade Evo system & regulator. Not sure of the specs on it.
There is a BDL belt drive and dry clutch in it also. A nice set of parts going on this bike IMO.
The pipe is in for its ceramic coating. Headway.
How about a progress pic or two...
Continuing solid gains on the bike. The primary is on! Maybe a complete bike next week other than a ceramic coated pipe. The coater might be dodgy. Or busy.
I will see it in person next week.
Well I saw my bike in person today. Pretty much at the same point as before. Exhaust out for its finish, wiring underway and some minor fab yet (contorting some re-pop stuff).
Fricken beautiful in person. The tins have more patina in them than the pictures show.
Did I say fricken beautiful in person?

Not for sure. We talked about everything but the exhaust. Looking forward to the BDL clutch set up and its apparent ease.
And the modern hand controls. Some creature comforts Id call it. Should be good.

What you won't like about the BDL and the open venting on the primary is the rattle with the clutch in, it's noisy bastard. I had a guy ask if me if they needed call someone as I backed into parking spot they rattle so bad. It works well enough but I just couldn't do the noise, swapped out to the idler 11mm system and 5 finger hub. Ramjet, alum pressure plate, kevlar plates and it's quiet, trouble free and hooks up solid even with my 93".

Be interested in you take on it after some miles.
the rattle dosent really bother me but ive got everything youve got exept the kevlar plates and it still rattles would those plates make it quieter ? any better than the stock plates and in what way ?
I hadn’t thought about the rattle… Been around Ducatis in years past so I am semi familiar with a rattling dry clutch.
We’ll see how it goes with the clutch.
I have 2-3 days of shakedown to de-bug if needed.
