Title: Re: too bad it's not an 1100 Post by: Bill in OKC on November 09, 2014, 02:10:19 PM I like the turn signals on the first bike. Little wing looking blade things.

(http://ilducatista.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/dscn3088.jpg) One of the most epic 900 builds of all time...

(http://ilducatista.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/dscn3088.jpg) I would give my left nut for that bike. So lovely! So perfect!

(http://ilducatista.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/dscn3088.jpg) Yeah... That was a FUN build. Bike rode like a Cadillac's wet dream, pulled like a steam locomotive and sounded like a Top-Fuel dragster... Title: Re: too bad it's not an 1100 Post by: mjk778 on November 16, 2014, 03:05:41 PM Wouldn't change a thing on that bike. Beautiful!

Bike rode like a Cadillac's wet dream, pulled like a steam locomotive and sounded like a Top-Fuel dragster... and then sadly parted out IIRC. :'( Title: Re: too bad it's not an 1100 Post by: Speeddog on November 16, 2014, 08:32:18 PM and then sadly parted out IIRC. :'( I remember some of the good bits replaced with normal stuff, then the whole bike sold. Title: Re: too bad it's not an 1100 Post by: Rudemouthsky on November 17, 2014, 03:31:40 AM It just looks like a completely diff bike without the gold Ohlins R&T forks...gold Marchesini's.. CC clip ons...feels like something else is missing too... ???

and it's soul. Title: Re: too bad it's not an 1100 Post by: Rudemouthsky on November 17, 2014, 04:05:43 PM It DOES look "soulless"! Weird...
I can't understand why anyone would partially part this bike out then sell it off. I have a pretty good guess as far as what kind of coin went into building it and it's likely WAY more than they got back. Just knowing what I have in my 944 ...they took a bath. That's a bike you keep till ya croak unless you have way too much disposable income. Title: Re: too bad it's not an 1100 Post by: kopfjäger on November 17, 2014, 04:11:41 PM ^^^^ You answered your own question.
Title: Re: too bad it's not an 1100 Post by: Skybarney on November 18, 2014, 09:04:49 AM Seeing that bike was a pleasure. One of the prettiest 900's I have seen. Yup, she has been killed.

Where did you see it in person? Title: Re: too bad it's not an 1100 Post by: Skybarney on November 18, 2014, 11:54:23 AM Only the pics on the site. Should have said one of the best I have seen in pictures, lazy typist sometimes.

I was just curious. Before I sent it back east from CA, it did a short tour around SF and LA showing it off a few times. I really do need to get all my old photos off of my desktop PC before it just dies... Title: Re: too bad it's not an 1100 Post by: ducpainter on November 18, 2014, 02:07:08 PM I was just curious.

Don't be like me and wait too long. [bang] [bang] [bang]Title: Re: too bad it's not an 1100 Post by: Heath on November 21, 2014, 12:09:04 AM I was just curious.

I have a few from LDD '07 but they are more of snap shots if anything. |
