Thanks [beer] I love that bike. I did a stop and drop and got "the dent". So I was shoping around to get it fixed and found D Dog in Chico. He got all excited, never painted a Duc befor, mostly harleys and cars. He started talking fire and screaming skulls. I said ''I'll go for the fire, but not the screaming skulls."

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2094/2414495045_0785d3ac51_o.jpg) My favorite is probably Spidey's or kopfjager's.

I get a really WWII vibe from it for some reason. Title: Re: Post Your or Your Favorite Custom Painted Ducati Monster Post by: Cider on March 03, 2009, 06:09:24 PM I agree: the green looks fantastic.
Title: Re: Post Your or Your Favorite Custom Painted Ducati Monster Post by: Magnus on March 03, 2009, 06:18:29 PM engine paint by Duck-Stew! ;D doh! absolutely, and it was no easy task!! Title: Re: Post Your or Your Favorite Custom Painted Ducati Monster Post by: Spyvito on March 13, 2009, 08:19:46 AM I couldn't decide to go old school or new school so I did both. The red is outlined by a thin orange pinstripe (hard to see in the picture). This started out as a plain black Monster and was a little boring. The rearsets, levers, mirrors, etc are from DPM. Exhaust is a DP Supertrapp. The only new change from this picture is a Sport Classic front fender, more old school.
(http://i530.photobucket.com/albums/dd344/spyvito/SupertrappGina.jpg) As homage to those that have customized and painted there bikes; lets start a start a thread with custom paintjobs there should be a bunch showing now that the custom monster challenge has started. Everyones entitled to there own opinion. ;D Title: Re: Post Your or Your Favorite Custom Painted Ducati Monster Post by: junior varsity on March 13, 2009, 08:33:57 AM I went for the Classic Name-Style Look. Megaphone Exhaust, seat badge off of bevel head, center striping, and font change for tank badges.

Title: Re: Post Your or Your Favorite Custom Painted Ducati Monster Post by: DuciD03 on March 13, 2009, 01:53:48 PM I went for the Classic Name-Style Look.

(http://lh3.ggpht.com/_4iYlZ1m8UEM/SblgRxPW8rI/AAAAAAAACwQ/nUsnZ4ggtH8/s400/IMG_4700.JPG.jpg) Where did you get the ducati name badge? cool! Is that a centred straight stripe? custom painted or stock? Also a closer pic of the bike would be nice. Title: Re: Post Your or Your Favorite Custom Painted Ducati Monster Post by: junior varsity on March 13, 2009, 02:08:10 PM I got the Ducati Logo badge from BevelHeaven, the stripe and the rest of the paint job (tank logos and belly pan) are custom - I liked center stripes better than the S*R series off-center stripes, and wanted the old-school logos. Crashing has its advantages, one of them being new paint jobs.
Here's two more pics (I'm not a great photographer): (http://lh3.ggpht.com/_4iYlZ1m8UEM/SbldvQJo0yI/AAAAAAAACuw/WpfXtRoGlSU/s400/IMG_1448.JPG) (https://lh5.ggpht.com/_4iYlZ1m8UEM/SGqm2XR5qJI/AAAAAAAABcA/TsNlaU1yncE/s400/IMG_1085.jpg) (Note: The hideous grips in this picture are no longer on the bike.)

Yeah the silly Matrix tank is in the garage on a shelf, I want it in my living room but my girl is not yet convinced [drink]. Ducpainter color matched the gold 80s font to the gas cap, and of course the green matches the fenders and cowl I already had, so yes the color is the same green as the Matrix edition because my bike started as just that.

Figure out a way to make the tank be the center piece of a glass-topped coffee table. Instant conversation starter. Friend of mine's dad had a ZR1 engine block coffee table.

But she said once we have kids she has to approve where I put it ;D ;D ;D She just said, "I'll say yeah because I know you won't do it!" [beer] Maybe I can use it as a Ducati Matrix flower pot? She might go for that... Actually think she just gave me the green light on this! [thumbsup] Edit: ok, she just clarified that she has to pick where it goes, I need to get a nice gas cap and wax it though...
