Wanted to do a couple of upgrades to the 999R, so I dragged it out of the trailer and stripped it down.
I've been noticing that it's been running on the hot side during summer month trackdays (about 200-205 while moving) and after talking to a friend who has a 848 trackbike we decided that the aftermarlet race bodywork has smooth sides without any exit vents for the hot air to escape!! The OEM bodywork has the wings on the sides and exhaust vents on the upper part of the sides. I decided to cut some exhaust vents in the side panels.
First I made a cardboard template of the approxiamate shape that I wanted and marked it out on masking tape applied to the area to cut. Next I cut the three "corners" with a step drill bit to get a nice radius. Then I went to work with my trusty Dremel tool and cutting disc. I painted inside the cut edges with some red touch up paint for a finished look. Lastly, I cut up some of the grill material I had from an old wastebasket (I've used this stuff for other vent grilles), hit it with some flat black spray paint and secured it using 3M adhesive tape.
I think it looks great because the black screen ties in with the black Dzus fasteners, etc. I report how well it works after my next day.
I also found a used Euro Racing quick turn throttle on one of the forums and installed that. Had to get into the airbox to install the cables: Hence, the diassembly! This throttle housing includes three different sized cams that give different degrees of total throttle twist. I have the largest (quickest) cam installed and it's about 1/4 turn now. I report back on the results here also....
I'm happy with the outcome. 
I bent up a recycled aluminum strap, made an aluminum spacer, and bought a longer stainless 6mm bolt for the handlebar clamp. 
Using the 30cc reservoir that I got with the clutch master I mounted up the reservoir. 
I bought used Brake and Clutch radial masters from to members of DucatiMS- They came with a couple of Brembo plastic reservoirs. 
I installed the clutch side as I received it, but I think I'll upgrade the bracket. 
The clutch side is supported by a homemade stainless wire and what looks like a Titanium bolt. 
I stole the hardware off of my ST2 to mount the brake reservoir. I used a 45cc OEM size. 
I have some clear hose and Titanium banjo bolts ordered to finish the job. 
This is a Medium (30cc) reservoir mounted with some stainless rod (I bought it used). I have a small 15cc resi ordered and I think I make a stronger bracket. 
I bent the bracket so that it just clears the top of the dash unit. 
I used the Woodcraft clip on handlebar bolt with a spacer under it.
