Im looking for help with a little problem i have, i had a low speed drop on my rsv mille, bloody new road surface and all the gravel was all over the inside line at a round about, by the time i'd clocked it, to late!! i was off and my mille headed for the curb!! trying to get the council/highways agency to take responsibilty for it, only time will tell!
Any way, my problem is this, the left of the bike is covered with gravel rash and a slight dent in the tank, 5p piece etc, im looking for opinions as im temped to matte black the whole bike?? what are peoples feeling on this sort of look?? i cant make my mind up!! And the help, if anyone has got a complete fairing set inc take for a 2000 rsv mille let me know!! or a tank in red, left side panel in red, air duct in red, and lower in silver!!! thanks again everyone!!
 
hi bud i know how you feel mate mine fell off the padock stand damage was small ding under my leo vince can ,small scuff on rear seat pod,bent r/h bar ,f/r flasher , and big scuff up r/h nose cone,front b/lever broken ,only had the bike 2 weeks and it was like new for a 2000 model i was gutted mate i was going to get it sorted but then i looked on ebay and got all the bits even the same colour the plastics were ok but not as good as my own before it fell over ,i think it all cost around £300 it got me back on the road again .im going to get the original parts painted black back to mint again . so look on ebay for bits mate even just to get you going again
 
thanks for the responce biff, ive been looking for ages now, am im getting fed up of riding a scruffy bike!! the matt black job i can get done will be a tip top proffesional one, put some more aprillia decals on it and get it all matt laqured!! should look something like (colour wise) like the ducati 848 evo dark!! or that the plan! Or do we think red, silver, blue or pink etc ha ha ha just a normal colour or do we think matt black will look good??
 
I seen a nice all matt black rsv with silver decals somewhere ,it looked very good,I was even thinking about going down the same route,
If I can find a piccy I'll post it up.
 
if you could mate that would be brilliant!! been looking and i've found aprilia decals in carbon fibre with a gold fleck etc, found most things to replace origional decals etc, just trying to find some wind deflectors!! if anyones got any, please get in touch.!!
it should be good, the ducati looks superb!!
 
If you get stuck for the decals ,I could knock some up for you,and if 2002 wind deflectors fit ,I have two in the garage.
cant seam to find the piccy though ,It might be on the works pc,I'll have a looky tomorrow...
 
I'll dig them out ,see if theres any marks on them and get back to you .
 
thats brilliant mate, scratchs marks etc dont matter as they will get painted!! but thanks for this
