Default So I ended up with a burner

Yep, my '08 1000RR started burning oil and went downhill QUICK!

It was using a quart in about 700 miles. Honda was being dicks about it, and I decided to come up with my own fix. They really need to address this issue for all of the people that are loyal to them and getting screwed.

Here's my bike with the new "DUC" mad installed.

I miss the RR, I really wish they would take care of this problem. It's an OUTSTANDING bike otherwise.

Its insane how many stock option the Ducatis come with though.... and on top of that I remember you saying it has alot of additional mods... lol to be honest looks like the only things you can really even improve on would be like

rotors, braided lines (which it looks like it might have), rearsets, and a windscreen ha

Rearsets got installed last night and the windscreen is on order. The S model is really well equipped, and a LOT of fun to ride.
