Black Ducati 959 Panigale Custom Past Times Jett Design

Words yesteryear Andrew Jett

This cycle cook was performed inwards trouble solid yesteryear me – Andrew Jett of Jett Design. I studied art/design inwards college together with convey ever been intrigued yesteryear fast cars together with motorcycles. I convey combined the 2 passions of blueprint together with motorcycles into what is Jett Design. I similar to strip things down, getting them equally low-cal equally possible. Designing the torso of the motorbike allows me to merge my inventiveness amongst existent functionality.

I am a 1 human being blueprint together with cook team, which enables me to oversee every facet equally I envisioned it. I personally endeavour to exercise master copy together with lightweight designs based on Ducati motorcycles.

This cycle was bought cook novel off the showroom flooring inwards early on 2017. It was the commencement Ducati I had ever purchased, together with I bought it equally my personal bike. Since then, I knew I’d beloved to cook a total custom out of it. This cycle has ever been my personal favorite. It’s raw, it’s visceral, it’s fast together with it provides such an intense riding experience.

Call me crazy for chopping upwards a cook novel Ducati Panigale. After a flavor of riding, it sat inwards my workshop for nearly 2 years piece I envisioned the blueprint together with how to become far all work. During that fourth dimension other bikes were built, but the Panigale sat, ever inwards my draw of vision together with inwards the dorsum of my mind. It was yesteryear far the most hard cycle to redesign together with cook because it is such a beautiful cycle from the factory.

I knew whatsoever blueprint I came upwards with, it had to live sleek together with check the nature of the bike. The blueprint personality of this cycle reflects that of industrialism together with showcases all of the applied scientific discipline together with mechanicals. I specifically wanted to demo everything that the mill bodywork deliberately covered up.

This blueprint translation was my personal vision of what a super-naked (naked superbike) should be. I wanted the halt effect to live a stripped down-lightweight, amongst a naked cycle riding experience

I fabricated a 1 off-bespoke front end half-fairing. This fairing was built to comprehend the electronic justice cluster together with front end wiring. Under the front end fairing resides a 180 gram (less than one-half a pound) 1200 lumens LED race light, for nighttime riding.

Custom side wings were hence built to farther comprehend upwards the ECU together with electronics on either side of the bike. An aluminum together with carbon fibre front end fairing rest was built to secure the front end fairing. Paint piece of occupation was done yesteryear Kevin Petitt of Petittbilt Custom Paint Work – the human being is an artist.

Aluminum together with carbon were chosen for their lightweight qualities, farther reducing the bike’s overall weight. The tail department uses a one-off Jett Design lightweight nurture subframe. The radiator back upwards was besides redesigned yesteryear Jett Design to live lighter together with less intrusive inwards its appearance.

The exhaust is a modified Werkes USA muffler department connected to stock headers (stock headers were kept because they improve check the smaller displacement of this 955cc Superquadro motor, rather than the larger 1299 Panigale that benefits from larger aftermarket header primaries).
