As said on FB mate, looks the nuts

Actually, you should wack the luggage on and take a pic, be good to see what it looks like fitted.

How much the tank cost you then?

Does make it more usable as it won't need filled every hour on a run

The tank cost me £574 because I bought two and picked them up to save on delivery. They would normally be £650 per tank or £850 fitted.

The standard tank range is 80 to 90 miles and the new tank can return over 200 miles... So a fair old improvement.

Fair enough.

I thought the KTM 640's had a token tanks (110 and they die), bet you can still use 22 l 110 miles

One for sale then?

I'm not sure on te litreage of the luggage. The ducati site says the tank is 14ltr capacity, and the side bags 16ltr, I think that is 16ltr each maybe though as they are bigger than the tank bag... So 46 ltr in total? Or 30ltr in total if the side bags are 16ltr combined?

I can easily fit a Vango banshee 200 tent into one side of the side bags though with plenty of space left.

Not go anyy pictures of it all fitted yet.

Quick Q for G/ Mr Spiers

how you finding the dry clutches?
That is the only thing that puts me off them (and the sound of the clutch)

G · 17-01-11, 06:00 AM

Find the dry clutch exactly the same as any other clutch, there no difference. With the standard cover and plate like on the first page you can barely hear it either.
