Default Yo, Ducati folks!

It looks like I am about to own a 2001 900 Super Sport.
It has 5K miles and is completely stock. I am going to have to free up the exhaust and get rid of the LawnMower sound.

My last 2 Ducs had 16" D&D Carbons and they sounded awesome, w/Jet kit, K&N filter and air box mod and they ran good. Since the jet kit is a thing of the past I need advice from someone who has done this before. What did you use and how well did it work for you.

Thanks

I haven't actually got it yet, tomorrow I hope. It needs some TLC, but seems be be good mechanically except for the rear brake, which doesn't. The owner says the master cyl is shot, but we'll see once I can put some tools to it.

I've heard them all and D&D sound the best to me. And I don't have to pay extra for the logo... They also crash well. Yes indeed my friends, I have tossed a Ducati down the road.

But really, any fuel management and ignition curve info here?
DP box, PCIII, Chip flash ? I'm thinking maybe change the exhaust and see how it runs?

D+Ds actually sound really good on twins.

I have D&D on my monster and love them. They may not be for everyone but I love the sound I get.
