Hey guys!
We got the akra exhaust installed and I couldn't be happier with how incredible this thing looks. It also saved 18 lbs over the stock system which brings our total weight savings up to 30 lbs already!
Sorry we weren't able to get this beast started but we didn't want to rush it and have something g...

Hey Guys!
Man that was a lot more work than I thought it would be...have to take the entire rear subframe off, remove all the fairings, move the radiator out of the way and disconnect the fans.
The good news is, the stock exhaust and all the parts that went along with it weighed in at 30 lbs! That means we w...

Hey guys!
We installed a set of BST Rapid Tek Carbon wheels and they look absolutely incredible! They also saved 4 lbs over the stock forged wheels which might not seem like much BUT it made a difference on the riding feel of the bike for sure.
I finally realized that its the carbon wheels that give the bike...

Hey guys!
So overall the bike made great power. In 4th gear it made 179 hp and 76ft lbs of torque. In 5th gear it made 183 hp and 80ft lbs of torque.
We were happy with the total hp numbers but what was a bit shocking to me was the massive flat spot in 4th and 5th gear. If you listen on th...

Hey guys!
So we got the throttle spacers installed to clean up that sloppy throttle which feels fantastic. We've used those on every Ducati bike and I live by them.
We also got the new domino grips installed which feel amazing. And finally we got those NRC snap on front turn signals installed which rea...

Hey guys!
We installed some brembo RCS brake and clutch masters along with new rizoma reservoirs and they look absolutely incredible.
It cleaned up the front of the bike and really shows off the lines that the designers were after and I couldn't be happier with how it looks. Once we get the fork mounted turn...

Hey guys!
The streetfighter build has officially begun! We installed an NRC tail tidy and removed the rear passenger pegs which saved us over 3 lbs!
This tail tidy really cleans up the lines of the bike and the turn signals are actually much brighter than the stock signals as well.
Next we will move on...

Hey guys,
It's a bittersweet day for me and a lot of you I'm sure. Super stoked for Bryan and his new bike but I've got to admit, I'm sad to see this one go.
Glad it went to a good home though. Bryan is an avid rider and a huge S1000RR fan so it will be in good hands.
Thank you all once again for...

Hey guys!
Today we did the first service on our 2020 Streetfighter and you'll be happy to hear everything check out perfectly! The engine shavings in the oil were very mild so my "hard" break in worked like a charm :)
I had Rory give a lot more explanations on why he was doing things so I hope you enjoyed so...

Hey guys!
So we had a chance to weigh our stock 2020 Ducati streetfighter and it came in at just 453 lbs! For reference our stock Tuono weighed 469 lbs! So its 16 lbs lighter with 40 more hp in stock form lol.
Also, I chatted more about the build plans for the bike. We will be doing full carbon p...

Hey guys!
So we finally had a chance to weigh the bike and finish up the build and it officially weighed in at just 393 lbs!!! At that weight with 200 hp to the rear wheel it puts it on par with the track only $80,000 BMW HP4 Race that came out last year!
I'd say this is definitely one of the lightest and fa...

Well its official guys. This is the most insane bike I've ever ridden. It surpassed our Carbon V4 and 650's 250 hp Ninja H2. This bike feels like a weapon of a machine that just wants to do whatever you want with the smallest inputs.
Whoever wins this bike is going to have to be VERY careful because it...

Hey guys!
So I read through all of the comments regarding my original idea for the streetfighter build and it seems most of you wanted to see some color incorporated into the build.
So I hit up my designer and told him a few ideas and this one really stood out to me as a winner. It's a tricolore design which...

I gotta say I'm pretty blown away by how this bike is coming together. The blue accents against the carbon and the titanium just looks freaking incredible. I think this might end up being my favorite bike from all of our builds series.

**I forgot to mention I originally was going to do a tribute to Carlin with this build BUT his parents have now trade marked his name so that severely limits what I can do with anything in that direction unfortunately. **

We decided to add another cool, custom touch to the bike with the BMW roundel light up turn signals and man do they freaking look sick!

The Carbon S1000RR is officially rideable!!! Obviously its not road legal but being able to turn it on and ride it through the parking lot was an incredible feeling.
