Once that is done, I'll post pics. Bike also has the open air box mod with a K&N filter. I am looking to do more mods so any suggestions are welcomed. Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, was salvaged. "PIC HEAVY" Post by: MikeZ on October 19, 2011, 12:44:04 PM Looking good
[thumbsup] [thumbsup] Just need to open that clutch up Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, was salvaged. "PIC HEAVY" Post by: 04monsterduc on October 19, 2011, 12:59:05 PM Thought about opening the clutch, the painted cover will have to do for now. I was laid off in may so money isn't coming that fast. I plan on;
tail chop led brake light led front turn signals bar end mirrors painting belt covers (blue outside, white inside) I am worried about doing the led stuff because I don't have the Red key or code card :-\. The bike came with the CA Cycle works billet top triple clamp, but I am missing the adjusters for the forks. (Not sure if the original forks are adjustable) If any one knows where I can get those it would be a help. I'll post a bike of the triple clamp once it stops raining here Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: ab on October 20, 2011, 04:58:31 AM [thumbsup]

Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: ItsaDuc on October 20, 2011, 08:03:51 AM And people dont believe in resurrections.
[thumbsup] Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: orangelion03 on October 20, 2011, 10:15:37 AM Impressive work!
Two comments: 1. It's "SENNA". ;) 2. Please explain patch on bottom of engine case!!! ;D Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: 04monsterduc on October 20, 2011, 11:58:44 AM My bad on the SENNA, typo lol.
The patch is there bc when I bought the bike the cases had a hole in them. (wish I took a pic) After researching and finding out that it would cost about 4g's to replace, the patch was the next best bet. I took a piece of aluminum that I had laying around and cut it to size. Then I drilled and tapped some holes into the case and used high temp RTV silicone. The patch works great, and only leaks a lil bit of oil when it is cold outside. Once the motor is warm, the leak is gone. Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: orangelion03 on October 20, 2011, 01:29:58 PM Awesome! You sir have courage!!! And a bargain [thumbsup]

BTW, how'd the PO put a hole in the case? Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: rlgMcoupe on October 20, 2011, 02:03:37 PM Cool, resurrection!
Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: zarn02 on October 20, 2011, 03:42:03 PM BTW, how'd the PO put a hole in the case? I have a mental image of a dialogue much like this preceding the incident: "Think you can wheelie over that curb?" "I don't see why not." Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: 04monsterduc on October 21, 2011, 10:02:16 AM Not sure as to how the prev owner was able to get the hole. But he did do a lot of damage to the bike. He bent the front rim, put hole in the motor, two holes in the header. He did a fantastic job screwing it up.

But a bargain for you as well as a good looking bike. Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: Rameses on October 21, 2011, 10:18:47 AM I am looking to do more mods so any suggestions are welcomed. First mod you should do is the odometer addition mod. Go put a buncha miles on that beast and enjoy the hell out of it. It looks great! You can worry about mods come winter.

Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: 04monsterduc on November 02, 2011, 05:00:59 PM After much research, it looks like the PO did the fork swap, so they are adjustable. [evil].
Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: lazylightnin717 on November 02, 2011, 05:29:10 PM did anyone else, when seeing the first pic, think... "omg, half invisible bike!"? ;D I did! After much research, it looks like the PO did the fork swap, so they are adjustable. [evil]. I believe they came with adjustable Showas. The bigger engine bikes usually came with the better gadgets [bacon] Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: Travman on November 05, 2011, 05:32:32 AM After much research, it looks like the PO did the fork swap, so they are adjustable. [evil]. Your bike could be an S model which came with adjustable forks and an aluminum swingarm. Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: 04monsterduc on November 05, 2011, 11:38:00 AM Your bike could be an S model which came with adjustable forks and an aluminum swingarm. How would I go about checking if it is the "S" model? Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: zarn02 on November 05, 2011, 11:41:44 AM How would I go about checking if it is the "S" model? You could probably check the VIN with Ducati. But a way quicker method would be to try and stick a magnet to the swingarm. If it sticks, it's steel, and not an 'S'. If it doesn't, it's aluminum, and is either an 'S' or the previous owner went to the effort to change the swingarm. Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: 04monsterduc on November 06, 2011, 01:13:01 PM Checked the swing arm, and it is aluminum. So it is the S model. [evil]
Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: Monsterlover on November 13, 2011, 06:57:53 AM I have a mental image of a dialogue much like this preceding the incident: "Think you can wheelie over that curb?"

As of today I have done the following to the Duc. Tail Chop Painted and Chopped the exhaust Integrated tail light Painted belt covers Painted clutch cover Painted sprocket cover. Changed header (http://i1114.photobucket.com/albums/k528/Frank_Jenzake/2012-05-11_18-28-38_771.jpg) (http://i1114.photobucket.com/albums/k528/Frank_Jenzake/2012-05-11_17-40-20_757.jpg) Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: Steve.In.Atlanta on May 11, 2012, 04:26:18 PM Looks flippn' sweet. Love that blue!
Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: OT on May 11, 2012, 04:45:30 PM How would I go about checking if it is the "S" model? AFAIK, 2004 1000DS in the U.S. is the 'S' model. Mine has Alu swingarm and fully adjustable forks. I'm sending you my stock cans....please chop like yours and return asap [thumbsup] Title: Re: My 2004 Monster 1000, PIC HEAVY Post by: Monsterlover on May 11, 2012, 04:47:42 PM Looks great!
