I am assuming is mounting, which will be posted here a few months, but could not locate it.

This is the Ducati Desmosedici piloted by Italian Loris Capirossi in 2004.

This is the kit, and some accessories.

Painting the paneling with primer, and capping the balance.

Now, I'll do the first time, a red motorcycle with a yellow background.

Here the radiator on the front cover, I used the technique of putting on the black screen to the effect of carbon, I think the result was good.

This is looking very good Sandro - I see you know the secret of painting "yellow" first before the red. Also like the opened inspection door. Exhausts look good too what did you use to paint them? - John

Now I would like the opinion of you. I painted the cowling with red Ducati Zero Paint, but I think it was a very dark red, I did a test on a piece with white base, and the result was almost the same ...

The red looks right to me Sandro. It looks a little dark when the base coat is applied because it is not reflective but when you paint the clear it makes it look correct. Very nice work so far - Keep up with pics and postings - John

Paquitor, I used various wires and tubes, mainly for Modelers Model Factory Hiro and, since the sheet metal, as shown in the photo, is also Model Factory Hiro code P-928.

It inspires me to modify my old bike and get it renew. and helps a lot to do it by own way to uninstall and re-installation of bike guides a lot.
