Well, if I have one piece of advice for anyone thinking of changing their bikes.....DON'T...... LEAVE THE ******* THINGS ALONE!

Tried to fit the Falco headers to the Mille, dont fit, the bottom of the pipes foul the bottom of the belly pan, wont allow the fairing mounts to meet. ******* THING!

So, bought a set of Akrapovic headers to fit to the Mille, removed from a 2003Tuono, so no issues ftting these then, WRONG! won't clear the rear linkage, left side pipe sits about 50mm away from the swing arm, right side 10mm.......LOOKS ******* STUPID, so off it came aswell.

**** it then, I'l fit the Akrapovic headers to the Tuono, least then that's one of them sorted.......WRONG!...........******* exhaust nut snapped in the engine.......10 days for new ones to arrive, can't remove the snapped one now either..................SO NO ******* BIKES ON THE ROAD NOW! Gonna have to get public transport to work next week, no more cash to get the ****** into a garage to get fixed SO ******* PISSED OFF I CAN'T TELL YOU.

Actually given up, not in my nature at all but i cannot be ****** with them anymore, totally lost the will.

ANYONE WANT 2 BIKES.........GET THEM OUT MY ******* SIGHT!!!:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry:angry
 
Sorry to hear your Plight, Some times **** happens go back to it at a later date mate. Have a few pints and thanks your lucky stars you dont live in Haiti. Chin up buddy.
 
feel for you pal.....best not to bother with them for the week.....then once youve had a few days off you'll find your interest is back.
best just to get yourself a nice single pipe set up and save yourself all the stress......fire them up and ride one of them!!
 
they are right dude

just leave it for a few days, or at least until the stud shows up

we've all gone thru it tho, when it rains it pours etc.......

sorry to hear your on the bus tho for next week, at least you'll keep out the snow

Kev
 
Cheers guys..............pissed off. Not even going to look at them till the stud turns up. Fuckers!!:thumbup
 
i find its best to walk away for a few hours or a day or so then re tackle the problem.....getting stressed out, you only ending up ******* things up


Hope you get em sorted soon dude
 
Do you have one of these in your kit? I've thrown out most of my tools & simply use this the threaten the Ape... works like a charm.:thumbup

dont let them win listen

dont let them win go back in that shed and show them who the boss is ,get the bigest ******* hammer you can find then let them have it then come round my house and do the same to mine
 
Having 2 bikes is like having 2 women on the go. If they found out about each other, they usually team up and try to **** you over. Tell one of your bikes you love them and the other bike means nothing to you, then she'll let you play with her again, lol.
 
feel for you mate bet you wish you did not have a fettish for exhausts now:nana:nana:nana sorry mate i will take them off your hands 1500 for the pair:devious
 
Cheers guys...............:thumbup

Calmed down a bit now!! Sorting the Tuono tomorrow.....whether it kills me!! Going to go for a Renegade style link pipe on the Mille now........if it'll fit with the Wilbers shock i have on:dunno:dunno

Thanks again dudes......tha fuckers aren't winning!!!
 
Yup! Ordered it from the Ducati catalog ("special tool #1").. all I have to do is glance at it when I walk into the garage & my bike seems to tune itself! If you have it in hand the bike will change & balance it's own tires. Well worth the $$:biggrin

Do what I do.....put down the hammer,walk away, pint up and laugh! Better if someone else is there.

The stud will show, you can always go back stock and eliminate the stress!:thumbup
 
You'll sort them out mate, especially after you have to go on public transport with the commoners and junkies:puke
 
Replied to your PM Andi m8. I'll let you know when I get the Renegades removed and you can nip through and pick the link pipe up. Keep ma fingers crossed it fits!!. :thumbup
