Ducati Monster Forum

I'd like to announce the newest addition to the family.  [drink] She just came home, and has been playing well with her big brother and the dog.

She came in at 432 pounds (dry diaper), 95 hp and, 102.9Nm of torque.

Mom and dad are doing fine.

Are you sure big brother won't get jealous?

It just might, the MTS eats corners like nothing else. Imagine riding a cadillac... this thing is so smooth!

how was the ride back from DFW?...besides enjoyable?  ;D

Hey! What are you doing with my bike?!

Nice ride.  [thumbsup]

Nice one Munch.

Must be Multistrada month.

Very nice  [thumbsup]

When are you passing out the cigars?

Nice, can you laptop fit in side bags?

Me and Colin passed out cigars while tearing it up on the animal creeks this morning. :)
Perfect weather, no cops, this thing really handles well, I was shocked. Poor monster might not the the light of day for some time!

Nice one Munch!!  [beer]  Now I am not the only trailer around here  [moto]

Did you see Manny's?

Shhh, that's our little secret.  ;)


Trailer or Grocery-getter?  :D

You back in town?

Just have to decide on the Staintunes or the Arrows now.   [roll] ???

There is a MTS at BMS right now with some sweet ass SILS.  Roll it up there, they could swap those out.  The owner of that bike would never notice.  ;D

Does ZARD make cans for the MTS?  If so, that would be my 1st choice.

Then Arrow.

CF or Ti?

Are you gonna do the Motard exhaust? Looks kinda cool, but raw...

I'd do the Arrows, personally. I like the sound better. Especially with the decat pipe and an intake mod...  [evil]

The Sils that are on my bike are nice too, for the record. No complaints here.

Bick, you're walking on thin ice. Remember I'm all emotionally broken right now and just might snap...

 [laugh]


Zards would be cool too. The Staintune headers and midpipe combo is a good looking pipe, but I like the Arrow cans better.

I already have the obniouxsly loud set on the Monster. I found a good deal on full Staintunes, for 1350. Arrows will be 1150, in either carbon or ti, but they run a lil long off the bike. Haven't looked at the Sils. The Remus look nice, and "fit" the bike well, but then you have to piece in headers and mid-pipe.

Decisions decisiosn. Basically comes down to Arrows or Staintunes I think - as each has a full setup, and would not require mismatched parts, like the others would.

Note on the zards, curent owners complain they have no bark, similar to the Termis. Not sure the exact reasoning, but I hear the same types of comments from both owners.

Ban his ass, Manny!  [evil]

For the sake of comparison, these are my Sils. I don't think they stick out too far. They look and sound nice, IMO. Not so barky, but more rumbly. But not too loud ... yet. We'll see once that midpipe and airbox are gone. Might try the Staintune headers or cat eliminator pipe. If you wait 2-3 weeks, you can hear what they sound like with those mods (knocking on wood, crossing fingers).  ;D

If I was going to get new ones, I'd probably get the CF Arrows, just 'cause they're CF and come in a full system.

Oh, no. Then I wouldn't be able to change his avatar to anything I wanted.  >:(


 [cheeky]

The cat seriosly restrics the noise, I'm sure yours wll come alive...

Both the cat and the airbox. BMS says they can get a K/N for my bike that is $20ish cheaper than the DP one. The filter and a hacksaw...    I don't know the state of your intake, but that mod might help bring the noise too.  [evil]

I'm gonna leave the intake intact, otherwise I'll have to get the ECU/PCIII.

Back on town since 48 hrs and already teaching my son how to drink correctly !!   [drink]

Oh sorry now there are 3 Trailers around!!

Welcome back!  [beer]

Gotta maintain those strong European traditions!  [thumbsup]

So we will see both of you Thursday night?  [drink] [drink]   [drink] [drink]   [drink] [drink]   [drink] [drink]   [drink] [drink]

What happened to strengthening our borders?

 ;)

Welcome back!!

Looks like it'll be the Carbon Arrows - f the neighbors, they hate me anyway  [evil]

Possible, it all depends on his strenght with beer!!

BORDERS???  ??? ??? [bang]

Ha ha, good to have you back-plus I need some to help me carry all extra crap around when riding!!!!!

I figured the boy for a warm beer drinker.  [beer]

Is he more of a Absinthe drinker?  

Chianti, maybe?  [wine]

Regardless... You are in town.  You WILL be there Thursday.

Not the bookstore  [bang] [bang]

You know, the INS folks!  ;)
