mhr clearance.

[Mitcho]

Any ideas on improving the clearance on a mhr mille 1000. Maybe some suspension mods. Like the bike with full fairing on but sick of ripping it up on corners. About to order a new lower fairing and cut out the areas that make contact, but may be better off make some suspension changes.

Take the belly pan off and store it away .

The trouble is, that the Mille MHR already has longer suspension units than earlier bevel ducatis, so I don't think that you can do anything in that area. Better to cut down a fairing or change to an SS top half, which is quite easy to do.

Ditto removing the fairing. An unfortunate feature of the Hailwood model. If you can find a copy of "Italian Motorcycles" 2, there is an owner's article on improvements to a Mille Hailwood.
