Hypermotard - hole near exhaust?
Can anyone tell me why there is a hole in the steel tube between the Termi exhaust? It looks like some leftover from the original exhaust. And it is not even a nicely drilled hole, more like someone nibbled it out with a cold chissel! :-(
Anyone done something to hide this?

Well that takes the cake! I complained about it to the Ducati dealer after they fitted the exhaust, and they did not know what it was. I thought it was a botched job to fit something, as it looked like someone had had several goes at drilling holes in there and elongating them.
Everyone I have showed it to has said it looks terrible. I actually only noticed it looked like the Termi logo for the first time just after posting this thread and looking at the picture.
I was just saying today that some kind of etching would have been nice, but that looks terrible as it is. Now, what to cover it up with! :-)
