I am a few hours away from completing the design showing some 3D models on this forum.
I should be able to post up by tomorrow.
I'm just finalising the rear pillion guard and the hinged pegs but here's a quick teaser.

Stay tuned.

Greg.

Ewwww nice ...... adjustable rearset and removable pillion pegs!


Damned nice man damned nice route you are going there!

 

[koucki]

WOW!!!! This looks great!!!!
Does it meant that Bipostos will have the option of having rearsets, AND monopostos will be able to carry pillion passenger as well? (assuming they get a biposto seat) this is GRAND!
Can't wait to see the final product!! and use it sooner than later

I thought you were talking about UFOs and I was wondering how in the world that got into the Sport Classic section.

Greg,

Your design looks strong and very attractive….

But how are you planning on dealing with the fact that the two upper frame mounts are relatively thin and may bend with the weight of a passenger peg cantilevered so far out. Ducati got around this by adding the third mount on the bottom of the motor.

PS: a “No Fat Chicks” rule would not be out of the question

Keen eyes Lee

The final design (not shown in this 3D model) incorporates a 3 position mount that not only picks up the two common bolt holes, but also places a boss inside the frame cross tube (swing-arm pickup tube).
The three point mount plate replecates the exact profile of the cast mounting point that we can see on both sides of our bikes.

You will just have to wait and see huh? - I cant give it all away in one sitting

Looks a little like the Hyper set up.


I don't see BIP exhaust hanger flanges.

I've never been interested in the Hyper so i'm not sure what they look like.
Should prabably check them out hey?

Bip exhaust hangers still need to be designed yet... Mapped out in my head but they are the easy part of the equasion so i'm leaving them till last.
They will be individual machined billet arms and not tied to the rearset/pillion set at all..

You read my mind koucki. This is the exact direction my mind went as soon as I saw this. So will it be possible Greg?:think:

Oh no, come on Greg, where's me friggin' hangers???? :abduct:

Your triangle replacement looks excellent BTW

Love Poolagents answer

http://wickedweasel.com/en-au/ww_model_galleries/2016

Will they be easily swapped from the current ( worn out/ not as attractive/wrong colour) model?

Will they bolt in to the current position without the need for a lawyer to be involved in removal of the old ( discarded unwanted items) ?

Is there a market for the old ones?

So Wasp.....October looms...still no powerup kit for the GT with the Pipemasters exhaust....I can taste the free beer at PI......woops....threadjacking again!

Cheers Roger

And I hear they are only hiring fat chicks as pit girls this year.

It can only go down hill from here mate...

 

[roggt1000]

pit babes

Oh Really ???? .....that's just gunna put a little more pressure on his "housemate" for the weekend...you know how"toey" he gets away from the Wasp Nest

 

[DADDA]

to Lee C.

you mean to say you currently allow fat chicks on your Duc? man, that is so un-cool.

 

[DADDA]

Greg,

you are certainly evil but my Ducati loves you. I wrote when you introduced the PUK1 kit that I thought I had bought everything I needed until you whipped out the PUK1.

Damn, you're doing it again!

 

[Ciccio Bkk]

Greg,
you should work in Ducati as official designer...
another masterpiece!
