Well done mate!

I am assuming this was before the wheels?

Some of those facebook comments are hilarious ... just a paint job, preference for the old monster, RIP belts (how long have you been running with exposed belts?) ... oh and your an alien to boot!

Yeah Betty, ya gotta laugh!  :)
I didn't even have the BST's ordered then. shame, but oh well...
I've had the belts exposed for about 7 years with zero drama's. I've always said, my biggest fear is someone with a sharp knife...

I guess I had some indifferent attitudes toward Ducatis and their owners too, but then I had the chance to have a flog of a 916 around a track and sorta fell in love!  ;D [drool]

Then when the ex bought the 750 Monster I found myself riding it more than my SV1000S Suzuki. (Still a Great Bike!!) I went out and purchased my 1000DS and was truly converted to the "Dark Side"!!  [evil]

Alien?? Wouldnt be the first time someone has questioned my ancestry!!  [thumbsup] [clap] [laugh]

Would still lurv one of those beeeeyyoootiful old 916's sitting next to my Monsters!?.......................One Day!  :-* Sex on wheels that bike! [bow_down] [drool]

Congrats Monsta!!  [thumbsup] [clap]

I had to buy the magazine!

 I can't help but think about how much power it would make with a modified airbox and performance pipes. [evil] Must be up there with an 1100?
Another good article on a desmodue track bike in that edition too.

I will have to pm you about your contacts for big valve heads/headwork.
Also, in your experience, any thoughts on how  the mini Dyna coils rate compared to the Dyna hand grenades and Exactfit coils?
