Ducati Monster Forum

Hello! Just got myself a sweet 2005 m800. I am in loooove.  [Dolph]

I also am a bit concerned with how quiet she is. I realize there are no termis available for this bike anymore. But would love any suggestions on how to search for used ones, OR, if you have any ideas on termi-style exhausts that would work great for this bike. Why am I insisting on Termis? cause they sound damn good.

Any ideas/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

FWIW - you have an S2R 800. The 800 also referred to as M800 is older and has the 'classic' low mount cans

For exhaust - check with the sponsors to the left. Many of they stock exhausts for your bike of all styles, materials etc etc

For sound, there's a number of companies wears that sound similar. So you've got plenty of options.

And as a note for next time - this is an Accessories & Mods topic. I *think* you can move it... or an admin may come by and do it for you. And searching around Accessories & Mods will show you a lot of the options folks have.

Thank you! I'm new at this (both riding and forum). And yes, you are right, s2r.. whoops.

OK. just re-posted it on Accessories & Mods... I tried to delete the original and it didn't let me.

Thanks again Slide Panda.

No worries. Just heading off the 'what model' questions that would have followed if you hadn't posted a photo.

I forgot my used bike speech - so here goes;
Do you have the service records?
One critical item to check is the age of the cam drive belts. They are 12k mile OR 2 years from installation replacement item. With a used bike, especially a lower mile one it's quite possible that the belts are original. If so - replace them NOW. A pair of belts is under $100 and not an over difficult DIY job. There's tutorials on here, or youtube.

A broken belt will make for a lot of tears and BIG dent in your budget to deal with. A local shop has a head from a Duc that lost a belt on display. The interior looks as if someone with anger issues took a framing hammer to it. Not something you wish to deal with.

The dealer I bought it from has performed the service and everything is good to go. Ill check out the sponsors.  :)
