Today, we’re focusing on some internal processes in the shop — we look forward to helping you tomorrow. (today is 7/31/08) We’re working on the latest revision of the MH900e battery tank and also performing some computer maintenance. Thanks! -Chris

They’re due in within the week and only a few are not spoken for… to be like Max, call now to get yours!

Exciting news — we are shipping the new "battery" version of our large capacity MH900e endurance racing tank.

The (pdf file) attached to this document is a supplement to accompany the existing instructions for installing the original version of the tank. The only additional parts required are a longer starter cable, M6 screw, and a spacer. There are no permanent alterations required for this REV-B "battery" tank to be installed and work. More info, too, on this older news article.

We are excited to be meeting with the new manufacturer for the endurance fuel tank projects. This first meeting is to cover the final details of the MH Battery Tank so that it can enter the production phase. Additionally, we will get more prototypes of the formerly stalled Mosnter racing tank project for review. We are looking forward to the results of our newest business relationship.

Cycleworks will have minimal staffing to cover shipping on Thursday, March 13th. 

We got in the first article of the MH tank and sorted out cable routing. This tank makes working with or on the battery a much more direct process compared to stock. Many will appreciate how this tank brings the appearance of the MH900e closer to the original prototype. Much more important is that this tank makes use of the current battery used in all other recent Ducatis: the Yuasa YT12B-BS. This battery is very robust and should make owning a MH900e an easier experience. There are no permanent modifications to the bike required, either! We do eliminate 2 large cables and the re-route most wires up there under and behind the steering stem.

Current status of the tank project: the first article is in and approved. We are working with the manufacturer to improve the area where the large fuel pump flange mounts.

Thanks everyone for a great start to 2008. Thanks also for everyone’s patience the past couple weeks. Chris (the owner) had some down time from a severe cold/flu and there are some things which just can’t get done without him. He’s getting better and we’re looking forward to an even better February!
 

We’re selling the 2000 Ford full size van that has served so well since z!na and I got it new in December of 1999. The price is great at $6700. No expense spared in setting up for towing or hauling two bikes inside the van! Read more here: http://www.ducatitech.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?t=7186 

We’ve been cranking through the website updates over the holiday break. We’re taking the 2nd off to focus on more code, but we’ll get shipping again on Thursday. Apologies if you have an unanswered e-mail; we’ll get back on it now that the holidays are past.

Thanks!
Chris
