Front cylinder pipework all tacked up....
Rear cylinder started...
Been having fun and games with the radiator. Got a quote from A & H Fabrications for a one-off rad mimicking the Ducati race radiator design. Whilst the amount was reasonable when you consider the amount of work involved and the undoubted quality it was more than I wanted to spend.
So I took a punt on being able to modify a Ducati race radiator and bought an ex WSB Ducati Corse 998 F02 radiator.
Initial rough fitment looked like a goer...
It would require new mounting tabs, the lower bar replacing with a bent one to clear the front wheel and the top fairing would have required minor modification to clear the rad.
However, a couple of days after I'd bought the Ducati rad and just before I started permanently chopping it, this appeared for sale on an American SV forum....
Not as good quality as the Ducati rad but doesn't require any modification to fit, so it's winging its way over the Atlantic as we speak.
