VA Sean Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Does anyone know if these are available anywhere - especially in this tri-colore version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VA Sean Posted August 21, 2008 Author Share Posted August 21, 2008 never mind... looks like they are special order... and quite pricey @ +/- $400 before shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeeve Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 never mind... looks like they are special order... and quite pricey @ +/- $400 before shipping. They lower your top speed substantially due to increased drag, too, if that's any concern... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Substantial is in the eye of the beholder! The top case, panniers, center stand and chicken shit owner already do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocker59 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Sean, that looks like an oil catch-pan to me. Required in racing to keep oil off the track. On the street all they basically do is collect gravel, dirt, and grime. Water, too, if it's raining during your ride... A buddy of mine has one on his Ducati Monster. He ended up drilling a couple of drain holes in it to keep the water out. You ought to see how much dirt and gravel that thing collects between oil changes!!!

This is what MG Cycle shows on their website. Doesn't look like it runs the entire length of the pan, but I could be wrong. And I guess any pooling area (water, oil, general road grime, etc.) would be a major pain in the ass each time you want to get under there.

waspp Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 I have the carbon one on mine, like the one at MG and does a nice job of collecting gravel but no water. ther is a hole right in the front where the point is and the fluids naturally drain out. Mine bolts onto the oil pan. Hal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom M Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Sorry to go OT but where did that picture of the Coppa come from Sean? Someone sure threw some cash at it if it isn't a photochop. I can see Alpina wheels, 1200 engine(?), radial front brakes, spiffy rotors, rearsets, a top of the line Ohlins fork (can I have the old one?), funky license plate bracket, and what looks to be ram air scoops poking out from under the tank. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharperdill Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 What is the chin spoilers actual function and does it still do what its supposed to from MG? Or is it just a beautifying part? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
