Awesome, so happy for you buddy. Your bike is getting more unique each time you are getting a new delivery. Well done

how was installing the silicone hose kits? I heard it can be a bit daunting?

Thanks Neda...the outer hoses are a piece of cake...the inner ones took much more time as ive expected...it took me about 6 beers..

A real PITA was the Rizuma as it is slightly thicker then the stocker...there is just NO space at all...very tricky..

the MT , streched air tubes and gap plugs...PRICELESS combination!!!

Wow Marlon, that is one classy and unique looking bike. It would have taken me a week to install all those parts and you seemingly did it over a weekend (with the aforementioned six brews.). Hats off to you sir!

Please tell me more about your Microtec experience as I'm about to take the plunge. Did you buy it from Mark at the Ducshop? If so, what canned maps did he provide? Aren't you running an Akra exhaust as well? Have you hooked it up to a laptop yet and tinkered around any? Not knowing the availability of dynos and Ducati tuners in the Dominican Republic, do you have plans to have it custom mapped?

Can I ask any more cheesy as shit questions???

Nicely done bud!

Any special tools required? I am planning on doing this when I get back from the sandbox...
