Well I've had a request as to what the bike looks like in its current flair, so here goes.  Flames and kudos welcome. Be gentle.

Mods:
CF all over
Rizoma Rearsets
Pazzo levers
DP LED indicators
Removed bikini fairing
Titanium Tank Bolt Kit
DP monoposto CF rear cowl + comfort seat
Speedymoto pressure plate & springs
Speedymoto Clutch cover
Speedymoto Crank Shaft Cover
CF oil cooler shroud
Rizoma fender eliminator

Bitubo Steering Damper and Oberon Bar end mirrors enroute.  I plan on painting the tank skins gloss black.  RyanRacer is going to get his hands on this thing soon hopefully and fabricate an underseat exhaust.  Excuse the crappy pics - the lighting isn't the best in my garage.

Man, your bike looks truely stunning!  i love all the CF work and how you matched your clutch with the ohlins.  applause applause

If you dont mind me asking....where did you locate that CF tail and seat combination from?  the only seats i have seen on others bikes and on the web have the red stitching and the grippy material on them.  bang head


thanks!  cant wait to see that undertail exhaust...its going to be killer!  think INDY GP MONSTER!

A fellow monster rider from the UK hooked me up with the part number for the tail.  It's a pricey bit of kit but includes the comfort/racing seat and CF monoposto tail in one package.  It's also got the grippy material on the side if that's not your thing.

DP part number: 96995409B  it runs around $850 bones, though.  My dealer didn't even know about this part.  He had no idea what I was ordering.

wow, awesome! the 1100s is on my list as my next bike (currently have an 06 S2R 800).

did the CF tail come with the white/red or did you add that after? looks great and can't wait to see the tank painted and new exhaust.

sweet  waytogo keep posting pics as you go.

Thanks for the compliments.  The part comes painted with pearl white number plates and red pinstripes under clearcoat.  It's a nice looking piece.  I'll be sure to post additional pics after everything else is complete.

damn dude, I have to be honest with you. That thing is Horrible. Unsalvageable. Being the good friend I am, I just cant, in good conscience,  let you ride that thing around. I'll even take it off your hands. Just ship it to me and i'll endure the humiliation of being seen on such a kickass bike every day  Wink

Bro,

Wow!  You have opened my mind on what my ride could look like!   waytogo How's the comfort of the seat?  How much louder is the dry clutch sound once you opened her up?

Thanx for the ideas.   waytogo Ride Safe!

Now it sounds like a real Duc. If you haven't heard it, take the cover off. It's a wonderful cacophony of clacking and rattling metal. It sounds.. what's the word? AWESOME.

Nicely done. I wasn't a real fan of the new monsters till I saw this one.

Thanks guys.

The normal seat never really bothered me although the 'boys' did get smashed into the tank under heavy braking on occasion.  After the comfort seat, it's a whole new riding experience.  It feels much flatter and firmer while providing more support.  Makes riding a lot more enjoyable. 

The clutch makes a wonderful clack clack clack sound at idle and only gets better at speed.  It's quite loud if you haven't heard one before.
