Good review with useful info about the mods made. I’d be interested to hear how living with the Monster is going..particularly the heat issue (should really have waited a few months until we hit the Australian summer).

Thanks for your comment. I generally ride with leathers and have never noticed excessive heat, even in traffic. These aren’t really meant for the city where heat would be a problem in the summer, much more suited on open back rounds. 👌

Thanks, I’m sure it was a random fault. They did say it was the first they had in where a spark plug had failed at 1k kms. 🤞 It’s smooth sailing here on out.

Hi where did you get the red Ducati extension bits for ur Rizoma mirrors. I have same bike brought same Mirrors but didn’t come with red extension bits I have searched everywhere online.

Only place I could find them was AliExpress. The URL extension to the advert has expired so just search the site. 🤝

replace termignoni with sc project twin, trust me you will not regret it, if you tell me which what camera you filmed it i can give a good comparison :D

Thanks for your comment, was looking at either the single titanium Mivv or SC SC1-S, my only issue with the SC is they use a two baffle system for Euro 5 so aren’t truly removed but the Mivv comes completely out. 🎶🎶🎶 I used a 15 Pro Max to film. This other video shows what I’m referring too, don’t fancy taking a drill to a $1k+ exhaust; kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3OmeKeJmKtjgZosi=v_76Bywn4nSvWAW1

@@benwoodruff4466 why would you remove a silencer when you are already decat. Its plenty loud enough, if you want something louder you should have gotten a V4. and the sc1-s is ugly af, the twin crt-t looks and sounds alot better, especially in carbon

Does it emit a lot of heat from the engine? I live in Florida and I worry about that. TIA

@@J-Rod73 Hi, thanks for your comment. Having only just bought the Bike I cannot comment as Sydney is similar to Florida in the summer but as it’s the winter riding the bike in traffic is not bad at all. Ducati are known to get quite warm but I can’t say it’s been uncomfortable when stuck in traffic.

I have the ‘23 monster sp and ride in NYC on a daily basis. Once the temps get to 30c or 86f… city ride becomes unbearable. However, if you are on open highways going over 60 mph or 90 kmph, it’s fine.

I've heard that this bikes runs on one cylinder when in neutral because, if not, they heat the pilot seat too much.

Thanks for the comment, not heard that before. Mine was definitely a faulty spark plug though.

I had the monster plus and the suspension was too meh. SP is better. I traded it in for a streetfighter V4 that I got a great deal on since it was a 23 leftover $4000 off. With the amount of mods you did why didn't you just go for a SF v4?
@stevelesnick6268Ай бұрын
Just traded my V4S for this. The Streetfighter is way to much for the streets where I ride ( tight curves) and I wanted something I could wail on. Dont do track anymore so……..
@pennfootball71Ай бұрын
@@stevelesnick6268 but the street fighter is not a track bike at all! My Suzuki GSX R1000R whoops it’s ass. The Ducati is like a go to Starbucks bike and is comfortable to ride to work and stuff for me. Just test ride a GSX R1000R for the twisties and you will be amazed. And it’s actually kind of comfortable. I’m 6 foot about 245 pounds and it doesn’t hurt my back. The Monster does have a tighter turning circle in the street fighter though especially like really tight curves and slow stuff it was like a motor scooter agile. The Suzuki is still better though… just take all your corners in second gear in anything you ride & you’ll never have a problem.
