it is an interesting use of a SuperSport Ducati...

I like it ;D The riding position is reminiscent of a drag bike or a salt flats runner. It's a chopper thing for sure. That riding style is one I'd rather have than ape hangers. Give me drag bars any day for a chopper.  I wouldn't necessarily do that to a Ducati, but to each his own.

warning lamps flush mounted into the Brembo brake and clutch levers for both low fuel and oil.

I wish there were better pictures of this.  Sounds interesting.

I actually like it. The blacked out theme kicks ass.

Well, the forward controls need to be replaced with mid controls. I hate that feet forward crap.

Needs a sissy bar......one aggressive blip of the throttle and you will never have to worry about prostate cancer.......an 80hp unicycle would be easier to ride......that position is horrible!

QuoteBuyer will be responsable for pickup the bike will be sold with a notorized NC bill of sale. VIN available to serious bidders bike is clean and not salveged title was lost. I do reserve the rite to end the auction early as bike is for sale locally.

translation:

"I stol it or bot it stolin n didnt git a titl so yer on yer own payin 800 to 1000 to git a bonded title since i am a dumbass"

the tank is an original 900SS tank, he just has the "seat" right on the frame which lowers the rider's butt by about 3 inches (and forward some too)

it could be done better.  the seat should be up a bit and the controls rear.

putting the controls rear with that seat would cramp up your legs in a minute.

i would not buy this bike for more than a grand though -- NO TITLE??  on a 1995 bike??  you are make the beast with two backsed out of luck if it is stolen,and getting a title on a later model bike will be very $$$

 Yea, give it a twist, slide little too far back and your boys get sucked between the fender and the tire. [laugh]

Did you watch the video? He's riding it in a parking lot, probably right after they finished it...

Imagine riding that on a full stomach, I would hate to be pressed against that tank and downshift! I guess no tank bag on this bike because you couldn't manage to see above it. And, like others have said, the tire just beneath and behind my precious [omit] is a little too close for comfort  [laugh]
