exactly ,,,,maybe worthwhile if buying used to find one someone else shelled all the coin out for lol. What I dont like about any aftermarket can systems is the glass packs that make em sound better come with the never talked of maintence issue most stock exhausts are not cursed with which is the fiberglass packs only last 5k miles or whatever before getting too blown out affecting tuning and noise....Is it REALLY worth a slight power bump? I think not ...I think it is 95% ego "look at ME I have AKRO I am so SO smart and special" or whatever Meanwhile some crazy old dude on a heavy touring bike blows your doors off in the twisties

Enjoy your new bike mate. Thanks for the nice comment too. I dont know of any powercommander etc. I would fit the genuine quickshifter if you dont already have it. They are awesome !!

I should try and get the bike back in and give it some runs without the DB Killers installed in the mufflers.

@@turbobike749 Please do! Great video of a bike I might buy!

ducati is a slow bike. 950cc supersport supposed to be a literbike category around 200ps. and the price of this are far more expensive than japanese liter bike that have 200+ps.

​@@ancogbernard You're missing the entire point of this bike. It's a sports tourer that's more leaning towards the sporty side. It's not a full blown supersport like the name suggests.

@@Mr_Glenn so the 1299 is a sports tourer too? 🥴🤦

Thanks for the comments mate. I think it will go better with the baffles out. Will have to get it back in for part 2 with no DB Killers 👍🏼👍🏼

@@turbobike749 Cool. Looking forward to it & will definitely tune in. Very interested in this bike but trying to work out if the S is worth the extra money or to go for the standard & add some nice bits like exhausts for about the same money in the end as the S costs.

Apparently the standard version feels better on the road for the average rider than the more stiffer feeling S model. The quickshifter is a must have item 👍🏼👍🏼

@@turbobike749 Cheers, that's really helpful info. I'm no Rossi so I'm sure the standard would be more than adequate for my average ability. Will also bear the QS in mind.

@@ragerider6283 I would say that the "S" should have a better reselling value a few years down the line...

no but should be

Hi mate. Sorry but I cant remember how it goes with the pannier clearance.

@@turbobike749 No worries, thanks for the reply. Cheers from Vermont!

they will not fit

Nope

Here's one . I've done approx 19000 miles on mine . ( 2017 model) Apart from oil and filters and tyres . It's had 1 chain . 1 battery ( in 7 years !) Always on an optimate. Been to Germany / Switzerland / Belgium/ Holland on it from UK . Never missed a beat . Its got a fitting for Sat nav under front of tank . USB under seat . Connection for charger under seat . Handles well and goes well . Forget the BHP . It's got a great power to weight ratio . You don't need brute power ..The screen also rises for motorway use . It also has 4 hoops underneath seat which you can expose and attach luggage to. As for price , well that's down to perception.Mine cost £12000 7 years ago , they are about 14000k now.($17000) Don't confuse them with V4s and Panigales which are very much more expensive . Negatives ....tank range not brilliant ..Seat not too comfy ...probably does suit a person of wide girth and tall height. All in all , an excellent thing . I won't be parting with it in a hurry

It's Titanium so the weight isn't really an issue

Cheers for the comment mate.I have since also fitted another system without the baffles. Sounds incredible !! I will see if I can get it back in for a rev up and also see if any power difference.

After second gear the bike is slow. I love the bike but it needs the v2 engine

Sound mint !

Sounds mint !

Could only be better ! Carbon wheels are nice !

I think we may try them out too.

Would ge great to see the dyno result without the db killer !

I did . And nearlly blew a copper of a wall whilst he was having a cup of tea 😂

Haha

Actually you have to pay 2k and not even get factory claimed 110hp, that's very sad.

@@whitealiens Ducati's quoted power is crank HP not wheel HP, so the bike is actually very healthy, making more than 110hp at the crank if it is making 108 at the rear wheel! The Dyno is measuring power at the wheel.

Why not say it if it’s true?

More like $3500

Hell yeah that would be soo good. I agree a 1260 would be the go. I never thought of it untill you said it. We should build one 😀😀

@@turbobike749 No. Ducatis are better with just enough. This bike has as many horses as a 996, or an ST4S. That is enough.

I disagree. I've ridden one of these, and for what it is, the power is quite adequate.

@@rdsimmonds hey bro is the heat on supersport is cool as japanese bikes or hot as 899 and 959?

@@user-jh3if3sm1b it isn't nearly as hot as the Panigale models.

Agreed.

mike Larry maybe you’ll get your shit together and learn some English. THEIR**

too bad you now have one of the UGLIEST bikes on the road. Hayabusa LMAO

Sorry Mike the ducati wasn't for you mate. Have fun on the Suzuki.

@@chriscunha3246 maybe you right guy. but it runs, not like ducati ss The reality is it works it's reliable I abuse the hell out of it and it still faster and I still get the babes so it doesn't matter if a guy like the look. Lol

@@turbobike749 thanks very much I have been riding it as much as possible Since I got it on March 13 no joke but still managed to get 9k most on the road and little track time in 5 Months, Considering that I just can't get my driver license or even my plates lol from DMV over cov19 problem but ride the hell out of it. I hope you and channel do great and be safe. Ducati is still my dream bike since 90s. No doubt ducati is a great racing bike and I love it Heritage. And I will Own one for the track some time this year. Well thanks again for your kind words. Sorry if I Came out dogging ducati just went through too much hassle over dealership and on top of all that my friends Nightmare stories Reliability issues ducati have. it just gave me a badd taste.
