Title: Radical Ducati is now offering bodywork for Monsters
Post by: Travman on April 11, 2011, 05:41:34 PM
Radical Ducati is now offering bodywork for the new style 696/796/1100 Monsters.  It looks like it will be significantly cheaper than Ducati's Monster Art bodywork.

that's pretty cool... but i dont like the design too much.

good to see the aftermarket finally taking advantage of the interchangeable skins on the new monster... cant wait to see what they come up next.

The kit consists of two unpainted tank sides and a tail cover, all of which can be purchased separately. I did a double take when I saw the prices — €75 for each tank side and €70 for the tail cover.

Looks like they are unpainted.  So, no styling problems! [beer]

oh, i mean the actual shape of the skins... if you look closer, it's not the standard tank shape... has these ridges on the tops of the tank and the cowl.

I think I can see it a little bit too... hard to tell cause I have a classic monster.

Still, the price point is good.

Seat cowl?  Maybe.

Tank covers?  God no...those look awful.

They are unpainted. So you have to add costs for painting. At the end of the day they will cost the same but look terrible. Those remind me of the worst new monster mod I've ever seen from OCC
