The Dogcati

[husaberg]

I'm actually heading to the coast but might be back for the weekend, if I remember I will callout to the track

Big arse tandem white trailer sponsored by Coast Customs 33 with a white Hilux
Black CBR600RR.
Not sure if we have a Garage of not? but normally do towards entrance end. (yip we are in the garages.)
Most often pitted with a Silver GSXR1000 with a tank that looks like a demented turtle, Ridden by a Timaru hippie that looks like a 6ft 2" Walrus.
More mullets than a Billy Ray Cyrus video.

The Gooldie bag arrived from Ducatispares

The pulleys are so light and so beautiful they are worth it simply to look at them.

The air intake is way lighter then i expected, a credit to modern thin casting techniques and judging off how it look on my 851 should work well on the Dogcati with the 851 fairing.



its also mag treatment (chromate) colour
The couple of race bikes under the Ducati spares banner also retain the scoop as Andy mentioned it is where the rectifier/reg is positioned so its a great heat sink with the cool air..
Plus its a good place to mount the number board.


If I was building a race bike I would use the std early pattern Ducati grips not mater what make it was as they are very cool. (Plus at $20 cheap as chips)



The battery box is close enough to the original, actually not 100% sure where the tricolour had there's but the 1989-90 had it next to engine of the side like the later ST4 and 916.

pic is an ex Roche Corse f89

Not arrived yet, but on their way.
I also brought a used pair of later pattern 3 spoke wheels at a decent price (from guess where)
They are later pattern are the same as the front 3 spoke 916 so look marvicish if you squint hard enough.
They are not the lightest wheel, but I feel 3 spoke wheels are an important part of the pre 89 look. rules only seem to define the size 16' or larger 5.5 Max width and not be carbon.
Whilst the ultimate aim the budget certainly does not stretch to Marvics yet, I think they are 5 or 6K, but likely we'll less then 1/3 the weight.
