Hey guys. My name is Dorian. I appreciate you guys tuning in to the vlog. I review and modify everything motorcycle related. It's important to me to do this with bikes that I've owned or currently own so I can bring you not only relevant content but informational and educational as well. Sometimes we need to do an oil change or customize our bikes. If I don't have it on the channel, I'm sure I have done it before or I can figure out how to do it amongst my friends. Everything within reason of course motorcycle related. I hope you enjoy the content and if you find the vlog entertaining or valuable, please consider subscribing. Take care and stay safe. Peace.
Ducati Sport Classic 1000s | LONG TERM REVIEW
Welcome back to the vlog. This is the long term review of the Sport Classic. We've had this bike on the vlog now for a few years. The bike has been great so far. No issues whatsoever. I've been debating whether to sell it or not and every time I start feeling this way, I take it for a ride and remind myself why I bought it to begin with.
Please let me know what you guys think of the video, the bike and the vlog in general. I strive to keep you guys entertained and engaged. Hope you guys stay safe and stay tuned for more content.

The Ducati Mh900e and the sport classics 1000 r rhe most beautiful bikes ever to come out of the Ducati stables , adore that sexy traillis frame, that sexy l twin engine, those exposed timing belts along with those exposed dry clutch assemblies , sexy instrument clusters, hot head lamp and tail lamp assemblies etc❤️❤️, certainly the most beautiful classic sport bikes on the planet 😍😍😘
Best color. Wish this was still available.
For sure.
Beautiful art, love them both.
👌🏼
I got an full coverage insurance quote of 60 dollars a month. I'd have one right now if if wasn't 2,000 miles away.
It’s worth the trip.
My favourite ducati
0-100km is 3.0 seconds from a bike of 15 years ago
Yeah that’s something you keep the yourself now people who take bikes they are going how to get it A lot of dudes that steal bikes they are friend of mine got his done with this years ago and it was like four or five dudes they put that thing in the back of a pick up truck then people start putting GPS is on the bikes they would still take them and stick them in the woods until to make sure the person didn’t have a GPS but people and I had to do everything now and get right on TH-cam and find out how to do whatever if you’re into that I wouldn’t leave my motorcycle nowhere outside
I assume this would void the guarantee?
Speed limit in UK is 70mph. Don’t have any probs?
I dumped the header completely
Smarter way to do it
Great, can you show us how to make it and would it be possible to do an rfid sensor instead
Rewire the two cables from the clutch switch to a closed loop contact switch. Done.
Im a new owner of a 24 model. I appreciate owners showing off mods they like. Good job. I like old school so i like your decision on changing the stock turn signals out. The radiator cap really bothers me and there is some nice caps for that (i just ordered from alliexpress). I think you inspired me to so a similar video of the mods that i got on the bike. Cheers !
Awesome. Thanks. ✌🏼
I have a rs thruxton no vibration at all. You must check your bike somthing is wrong.
Nothing is wrong. Your assumption is wrong.
I’m selling mine soon. Became a dad and hardly have time for her. Going to put the money in a money market account for the little one.
Good luck. 👊
@@dorian_vlogs Thanks brother, love the content by the way, forgive me for not saying that first and foremost.
@Contest4Freedom no problem. I appreciate it and you watching. 🙏
Ducati muscolare ci vuole maschilita
What’s your thoughts on the 848?
Honestly, I've never ridden one, but they look awesome. It's basically the shell of a 1098 with less power. Sounds like a blast if I'm being honest.
Brad basket LOL - why do you assume people know what that means? Catalytic converter
Lol
Love the sport classic 1000s I seen one in 2005 at an AMA race weekend and been in Love since
They are pretty.
It’s pretty easy to drop the whole unit out and makes it vastly easier to cut pipe. I used a diamond wheel on a 4” grinder and made it a breeze. My cross pipe needed mods didn’t fit right but I’m a weldor so it turned out cool. It looks great and sounds not too loud. Drop that ugly heavy bread box out is so worth it.😊
You are correct.
Do you notice any changes in fuelling / A/F ratio due to the exhaust restriction?
Feels slower. Could be th sound.
Front mask? Link please.
Mask? Do you mean the fairing? It's a kawasaki factory part. Bike came this way.
For me the radiator needs refining....they could have designed one to fit between the frame downtubes or w.h.y. Also had old steel head and barrel shape.That is finned head wider than the barrel
Makes sense.
Mine gets hot quick with the size of the rad. It will spike to hot at stoplights.
@@jimmyscott3597 it happens. It's probably something that happens to all of them.
Like from brazil. I would not cut de exaust, i would change it for other, just to keep the original Anyway, pretty sound.
👍
Good track cafee resers
👍
Bonneville 2011, sometimes it would not start, dealer says the switch is marginal. I have to pull the clutch all the way in. I pull the clutch already as a habit, it bothers me to pull all the way in. So I will "neutralize" this switch one way or the other. Also, this little "safety device" (safety against what?) can get you stranded in the middle of nowhere if it failed.
Spot on. If it fails, you're not going anywhere.

You're old school clunky blinkers look amazing. I've seen a few pictures online where people do front and back blinkers it looks like a z1.
I appreciate it. I tried to make it look as old school as possible.
Switch looks the same as Zusuki 1500.
Gotcha.
I visited a Ducati store in 2007 and walked out with the GT1000, the more rider-friendly version of this bike. But I remember this and the Paul Smart on the floor of the store. It was the end of the riding season and they had not sold. Nobody was buying these when they were new. How I rue that I did not buy both this and a Paul Smart.
I've heard the same thing from others.
Thanks for nothing tf
Happy to help.
I assume that you didn't do any driving around with it. I wonder if there is an appreciable difference in power with having it on. I, personally, really don't like the way these cars sound and it's the only thing really stopping me from picking one up. I'm searching around for some obscure exhaust setups that may suit my tastes as I don't even like the way the stock exhaust sounds, either (the tone and it's too loud for how it sounds, to me). Any feedback is appreciated.
They're fast for the money. But the automatic gets old fast. There's a ton of exhaust videos out there. I think they sound ok. The silencers are useful, but they kill any good sound coming from the exhaust. Which I guess is the point.
@@dorian_vlogs I appreciate the feedback. I’ve had plenty of fast cars in my time and I’m not chasing fast with this car but, I also don’t want to kill the power. The B58 just doesn’t sound good to me at all but I’m confident that there’s got to be something out there that helps to manage the tone of it.
This mod has mproved my 1200 Thruxton. I'm in Australia but not anywhere near a town let alone a city. First is a bit fast for off road. As yes I have to ride on dirt/clay/ gravel. These Bonneville bikes are excellent off the bitumen. I have modded the suspension with Tech Engineering progressive springs and preloaders and bi turbo rear shocks. The hard stock suspension, which gave great handling, only worked on city bitumen not Australian country roads, where I needed to soak up the irregularities and still have precise , secure handling.
Awesome. Thanks for the input.
hey! how's the visibility with that mk4 style rear wing?
No obstruction whatsoever. It lines up perfectly with the top of the rear glass.
@@dorian_vlogs thanks for the info man👍
@YutaoChen-1998 no problem bro. 👊
What are those mirrors?
Bro I wish I could tell you but lost the link. Aliexpress for sure but I can't remember specifics. My bad.
The Thruxton RS does not have the plastic snorkel. I’m sure it’s safe to remove it on older version of the Thruxtons. Since Triumph also remove it themselves.
Makes sense.
Ive always maintenanced my own bikes but the dealership i bought from gives you lifetime warranty on motor and trans if you have them do all maintenance so I'll take that warranty
I don't blame you.
Errmm, from an investment standpoint you should ride it. Stagnation kills desmo ducatis. Belts rot when they aren't being used. It's a rider's bike. Go ride it, people will pay over the odds for a well riden Ducati.
👊🤙
Why no talking at the start of the video?
Make your own video and talk at the start of it. I do things my way. Thanks.
great video!!! I owe a 2010, my gas tank is different, any other differences between your and mine?
Thanks. Quite a few actually. Small ones but definitely there. The dash is in a different location. The ignition switch is as well. The headlight is way forward on mine. On my frame, I have the welds to attach the fairing while yours probably doesn't. My clip ons are significantly lower than yours. I have a steering stabilizer, not sure if you do. Those are a few just off the top of my head.
Good riding. I just picked up a z900rs cafe. Was thinking about raising the bars up for more comfortable cruising. Think I should swap the bars out or just do a riser? Bike is nice how it’s set up.
That's funny. You want to raise them, I want to lower them. I'd swap out the handlebars personally, but esthetically, a riser is better.
To me, 16 years later, still more beautiful than 90% of the sport bikes today. Ducati makes timeless beauties!
Very true.
I love Ducati Sport Classics. They are the bike.
For sure. 👍
Don’t love it 😢. Thruxton 1200 wannabe
Opinions vary.
Thank yiu
You're welcome. 👍
I have the same problem. Except that it will only start with the kickstand up and clutch in.
Simple fix.
If you get the chance , ride a 2008 Ducati S4RS Monster .You will need a week to get the grin off your face.
😆 sounds fun.
do cleaning cars videos pls
I dont understand the market on these bikes. It's a glorified monster with an uncomfortable riding position.
I can't convince you and you wouldn't understand until you pulled up to a bike night on one. ✌️
@@dorian_vlogs I have seen them, and have sat on them. I don't get the appeal. Yea, they're pretty bikes. But not $30k worth for whats basically a retro styled Monster with a DS1000 motor. And the fact these fetch for more than a Streetfighter 1098S is ridiculous.
@gintonic8330 I gotcha. To each their own. But ice never in person heard or seen someone that dislikes them. But agin to each their own. I'm sure they're not for everyone.
@@dorian_vlogs I said its a good looking bike. But its at best a $13k bike, not a $30k bike. I don't know which hole these sellers are pulling these inflated numbers out of.
@@dorian_vlogs agreed. I own one, bikini fairing only, and I love it when people stop, stare and take pics. I rarely see randoms do that for any other motorbike.
Where did you purchase that pipe for $ 35.00?
Aliexpress. If you go thru the comments, you'll find a link that works. I don't have it handy anymore. My apologies.
Indeed it is! Haven't even seen the top of 6th yet. 👍
Hard to get there legally.
