Post by: beastie on August 04, 2010, 04:58:53 AM
Hey everyone,

I haven't been on this board in ages but would like to get back on board with you all. I've been busy working along side with Norm from Hurricane to finally get this Duc running right.

It's a 97 M900 with all sorts of mods!!! Frame mods, single sided swingarm, Aprilia fork tubes, Ohlins, Brembo, custom exhaust, seat unit....woohoo!!!

Here she is!!

HAHAHA, I can't link my images as they are not online!!

Sorry for the teaser!!

Let me work on posting them

Without pics it didn't happen.

Congrats on your non-event! Sounds like a sweet ride, and I can't wait to see it. Get those pics up! Please.

The REALLY funny thing is that the Original owner of this bike is "Scott R. Nelson" from this forum. I just sent him a message to inform him of the big news.

I brought the shade.  Got EZ-up . . . check.  There still room on the sidelines for me?  [popcorn]

OP, welcome back.  I thought Scott parted out his bike.  Which bits did you end up with?  I assume the frame.

I thought he retired a few years ago due to health issues or something (his sons had taken over) -- he's trying to build Ducati's again? [roll]

Why the rolling eyes?  If he wants to have fun again building Ducatis then more power to him.

Buck: Do you think she hates me?
Maizy: With a passion.
'Buck: Really? Do you think it's the hat frame?
Maizy: No.
Buck: No? A lot of people hate this hat frame. It angers a lot of people, just the sight of it. Ah, I'll tell you a story about that on the way to school.

Ok, got them on the WWW.

Yea, Norm pretty much retired because of health issues, that's why THIS ONE is probably one of the LAST or the last one to roll out of there.

I know these aren't great picture quality. My brother has a skill that I don't have so...in the future, I'll post some nicer pics.

Thanks for all the patience and anticipation.
