Saw this bike on another post. Absolutely gorgeous (except for the naff "Ducati Corse" shield on the tank...OTT for me).
I really like the headlight/screen combo. Anyone know who makes this and where to buy? Mirrors are shar too...Rizoma?

that headlight/fairing is amazing
mirrors are rizoma dynamic
that looks like simon from the UK's bike
i think his username was marchesini on TOB
That headlight unit kinda looks like the one off of the KTM 690 Duke.
So the owner's a Brit then? He'll understand the "naff" comment then. [drink]
All in fun though...each to our own right?

those are definitely not rizoma dynamic (stock, unless rizoma offers different stalk options), possibly modified dynamics?
the stalks on dynamics are straight, the mirrors are more round (those look more square) and the backs are smooth. the backs of those mirrors look like they have something going on there, but its hard to see in the small pic

Mirrors are from roadracing

Headlight is also from Roadracing , is bit bit difficult to get

Heh, no kidding.
Road Racing parts are very cool, if you can still find them.
Although, you probably could graft the headlight setup from a 690 Duke onto a Monster...
Simon's bike also had that custom, narrower radiator. Yum!
The bike has many tasty bits...
but he really should do a color consult with someone.
Something's just not right. :-X
I like the idea of the tail section alot (I would change some of the lines personally but it works with his bike)
the trick license plate mount is pretty sick too.
Sorry but [puke]...
I don`t......................
...............want this
i like everything except the giant corse logo.
Color scheme has a lot of nostalgic appeal to me. I became a F1 fan in the early 70s and was crazy about the John Player Special schemes on the Lotus cars from 1972 and into the early 80s. JPS also sponsored Norton.
This be me astride a friend's 750 Commando in 1984.

Nothing wrong with the Monster....
But I'd rather have that Norton [thumbsup]

Awesome
I saw this rolling up the 405 Monday.

Looks like a S4 with SBK 916 style exhaust and SSS swingarm. I would lose all that silver and go with black and gold. While he's at it he may as well ditch the Corse logo as well. Otherwise that moto has some tasty bits on it. [bacon]
