Could you please explain what you had ceramic coated and who did you use for the coating? Did you coat the CAT????? Just sent my rear header out a few weeks ago and would be interested in hearing your setup/findings.Catching up on these thread as I am experiencing some miles on the bike (still below 600 miles on the S model).
I must admit, this is the hottest Ducati that I have yet to own (full MTS family, Hyper 1100, Supersport 800 and now SS939.)
After an hour of riding the toes on both sides are cooked - and sitting at a light is near bearable at 60F. Looking for solutions because while a significant issue for me, it is the only issue that take away from being awesome.
I have ceramic coated the header pipes (in/out) and the external of the cat - but OMG with no success. Also added heat shielding material to the bottom of the seat. Can't imagine what summer riding and touring will be like - this is a bit "redonkulous".
Loving the looks of the stock exhaust, with preference to keep it - but the Termi may be the only solution.
Funny thing is, this heat really started after the first 200 miles on the odometer - and it is getting worse as the clocks tip over. Maybe running too lean as it breaks in?
Thanks
