With stacks and pods you would have room. Mods to allow for return pressure would be a piece of cake with your skills.
The lines could be clamped up under the tank to a pump and filter clamped to the tank underside utilizing the space where the airbox was. You could weld custom clamps to fit efi pump and cheap auto filter making servicing easy. For example on a GSXR1000 we swapped the 200 buck oem internal filter for a 10 buck external filter from GM or Ford. With the 900ie motor's hot oem cams, high comp pistons and a performance intake kit tuned with a PCV/III would make a strong bike. Just a thought. Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Pinion on July 29, 2017, 07:08:37 AM Thanks
Got an old 900ie tank for $90. Keeping this one simple for now. Just going to make her a runner until the other one is done Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: koko64 on July 29, 2017, 09:10:06 AM Cant beat $90 for a tank [thumbsup]

What bars are they? Nice bend. Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Howie on September 10, 2017, 08:06:09 PM Looks tough. [thumbsup] What bars are they? Nice bend. Good question since mine are bent. Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Pinion on September 11, 2017, 04:20:24 AM thanks
euro style bars 7/8" 30" wide 5" pull back 2 1/2" rise 5 1/2" center If yo have for adjusters, you will need to raise 1/2" higher then stock risers, I used some blots for spacers, lol Ive had these for awhile, powder coated bronze. Lets see if they found a home Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Howie on September 11, 2017, 08:05:15 AM I have adjusters and don't want to do risers, so they are out. Unfortunately I have no idea what are on the bike now, but they are (for me) comfy. The stock bars are not.
Thanks for the info [beer] Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Pinion on September 11, 2017, 10:35:14 AM How many folks hate the short kickstand on the monster, raise your hands, (mines raised) [bang]
Heres is my bike on a multistrada stand, a little long, but its easier to remove a bit then to add a bit. Will be furthering a direct bolt on replacement, stay tuned (https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4375/36334585194_5de0079566_c.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/XmLfiq)IMG_2935 (https://flic.kr/p/XmLfiq) by D charles (https://www.flickr.com/photos/152723633@N05/), on Flickr Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: ducpainter on September 11, 2017, 04:28:23 PM I actually like the Monster kick stand. I like it more with a raised rear. It will never blow over.
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Pinion on September 12, 2017, 02:56:03 AM I always felt like it was never going to stop, as I rested it on the old stand
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Pinion on September 12, 2017, 03:19:43 AM I understand, this is a work in progress, the multi stand is too tall. The overall foot print is bigger, I like that
the stock stand just seems too small and too small of a foot print for me. looking for the happy medium, a 10 1/2" stand, i think would be perfect for me.

It raises it a little and has a more secure base.
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Pinion on September 12, 2017, 03:39:59 AM I have another stand coming, I think the multi stand with and 1 1/2" taken out will work for me.
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Pinion on September 15, 2017, 04:01:28 AM perfect bolt on set up, for me. 2016 monster kickstan on my 96, a little longer, and projects out a bit with a bigger pad. [thumbsup]

Steel or alloy?
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Pinion on September 15, 2017, 04:46:12 AM its tube steel, very solid, and you can do the ole spin the bike around on it
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: koko64 on September 17, 2017, 04:16:33 PM Just watch out for the cases and bolt threads. Being light bikes I just grab the passenger rail and drag its arse around.
The early oem were alloy. Nice touch by the factory. Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Pinion on September 17, 2017, 04:35:26 PM as you can see, i have shaved the passenge rails off the frame, not an issue anymore, lol
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: koko64 on September 17, 2017, 04:43:39 PM Trimmed. Funny, Im hoing back to more of a stock look as it's a Jan '94 model.
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: ducpainter on September 17, 2017, 04:56:11 PM Just watch out for the cases and bolt threads. Being light bikes I just grab the passenger rail and drag its arse around. No issue spinning a 900 on it's stand, if the bolts are tight. If the bolts are loose, of course the threads will get fuxored. The real problems started in later vintage bikes, with the thinner cases, like the 848/1098. You could break that section right off, never mind damaging threads. It might have started with the Testastretta.The early oem were alloy. Nice touch by the factory. Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: koko64 on September 17, 2017, 04:59:53 PM The "vacurial" cases are thinner ay? I'd still be careful, but that's me.
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Pinion on September 17, 2017, 05:05:02 PM the motor is and 01 from an ss, not sure when the"thinning " occured
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: Duck-Stew on September 17, 2017, 05:10:56 PM 848 and 1100evo was the beginning of the lightened cases.
Title: Re: yet another frankenmonster Post by: koko64 on September 17, 2017, 05:14:31 PM I have seen issues with both pre Evo 1100 Multistrada DS motors that I work on
