They are nice, and every possiable part is out there that you could think of, in various froms of exspence, my 916 had a renthal rear carrier, tss rear sets, leo vinci titainum cans, and a few other bits, cost a same furtune, but then they are Ducati.....
hope you enjoy that 600ss.... \:D/ \:D/ \:D/
