Title: Monster Question
Post by: That Motorcycle Show on June 06, 2011, 07:38:02 PM
About ten years ago I ran across a Monster before I really knew a lot about them and have regretted not buying it ever since. From what I remember it had a gold frame and wheels. The thing that stood out the most was the fact that it had a "limited" paint job on the tank. The paint was a purpleish background with a ducati rider on it. I don't know who it was.  I wanted to know what year this monster was and do they ever surface for sale. Thanks any help would be great. Would also love to see pics.

I don't think it was because a few weeks later I saw another one that was some what the same. That guy told me it was a limited edition paint job. I could be wrong.

Maybe it was a Monster City?

They (Ducati) used to offer limited edition custom Corse painted tanks through Ducati Performance with various themes, designs etc

ex: http://www.ducatitrader.com/ducati_moto_corse_photos/motocorse-Pages/Image9.html (http://www.ducatitrader.com/ducati_moto_corse_photos/motocorse-Pages/Image9.html)


I don't believe they offered a complete "Limited Edition factory production" bike with artwork off the factory floor

perhaps a dealer threw a Corse custom tank on a bike to move it off the showroom floor
