Sneak peak: 2011 Ducati Frankenstrada
Saturday, May 1st, 2010Hello, my name is Frankenstrada and my stupid owner just gave me ridiculous face lift:

As I needed to take my bike apart for 7500 mile service, I thought I would play around with R1200GS fairing that my friend gave to me. As I mentioned in my other posts, good weather protection is something Multistrada misses, and I wanted to improve it in this regards.
Since using stock headlight was out of question because of it’s shape, I needed something different. I thought standard 5 3/4 headlights would fit the bike nicely so I ordered a pair. $120 later I found out they are a bit big for my slim Italian mistress (I cannot force myself to call her a beauty)

Well, the design is certainly functional. It seems that the windscreen is just what the doctor ordered, especially considering I will be communing on the bike every day in about a month or so. Too bad my Express bracket is not particularly strong.

So, I think with another smaller headlight this could work. I just have to somehow blend funky robot styling with a piece from German machine. Back to the drawing board.
