Running in the Ducati Desmoto on the dyno for the first 100km. Max 30% throttle… Checking surface temperatures etc. Yes it gets hot, but all good and manageable so far!!

However not all is perfect and that is also is something that needs to be shared! I was hoping to get this all done within 2 days (I was dreaming I know…), however on a prototype bike like this you are going to have issues.

Some small oil and fuel leaks, electrical issues with the ignition timing sensor. All my own fault but all minor things so far. They do take some time to solve however.

Was only able to do 1 power run and performance wise we simply aren’t there yet. Need to check multiple things to see what is going on.

But on a positive note! It didn’t break!!! So I am telling myself I made progress and in a few days/weeks hopefully I can say it is all completely done with the performance numbers that speak for themselves!
