What information are you hoping to get that isn’t provided in the previous 3 posts?
Edit to add: most helpful post probably #9
“Hope this helps I am 193cm and run an xl histogram with a 90 mm stem and riser bars and it's perfect size- in my opinion better to go smaller than bigger. You can make a smaller bike bigger but not a larger bike smaller if you get my drift haha” -
Maybe try AMP'oholics group on FB? Looking through the sales (mostly in $) looks like about $150 for a fork, maybe $300-$500 for F&F?

I've just returned to m'bikes after a 16 year break and bought myself a '17 plate Ducati Supersport S. Last bike was a YZF750 which was brilliant, but the SS beats it in every way, even being about 15 brake down on power (maybe a little less with the Akro pipes). You also get (most) of the latest fancy electronics - ABS / Traction Control / Rider modes / Up and Down quick shift.
I did consider getting the current model which has the latest electronics package which essentially means you still get ABS when cornering but I guess I'll just have to be a little bit careful... The quick shifter is a revelation - full power clutchless up/down shifts and pops and bangs too on the way down (sorry world!). Jumping on a 100+bhp bike as the first ride after a 16 year break was a little intimidating for the first couple of miles, but I had a very experienced rider with me and as people have said elsewhere it's all about how you treat the throttle!
Cost of a new Supersport S spec'ed like I wanted came to almost £20K and mine was £7.5K, so basically if later this year I want something with a bit more go and all the latest electronics (i.e. the six axis IMU), I'll be getting a late low miles V2 Panigale to go alongside the SS for a total spend of £20K.
Also - what's not to like about that view from the turbo?
Get your training done and get going with some test rides

Maybe you repeated the error made in your thread title when you were searching (omission of the word ‘paint’)? 🤣🤣
