j/k
nice bike

Oh, the sticker is a gonner. It just doesn't know it yet.  :e:v

but I'm waiting on the trashing until we get a new one. I still have some respect for the old one cuz it was something Jeff started and was pure at heart in the beginning. Plus it is a good way to get tentative duc riders (and others) to come on up and say hi. Then I can steer them here!!  mo:t:

Thanks for the kudos on the bike. It works for me.  be::

Post by: johnster on May 08, 2008, 03:58:28 AM

Where did you get that belly pan?

To be perfectly honest, it was on there when I bought the bike...The guy I bought it from never rode it (this bike was one of 8 in his garage) so I got it basically brand new....The one thing he did was put a few CF parts on the bike before it even saw the road....

It's the Monza belly pan though, which you can get @ monsterparts.com....

What type of exhaust is that?  Did you fab up a part using a car part or is that the old prefab one that is no longer sold?

Looks good   wt:

Those are BoomTubes via Mark Savory at MotoCreations, whom I believe is now a member here.

Thanks!

It's actually a 1098s can, so it's anodized black from the factory.  I made the system myself, I'm probably going to make a new system in a few weeks if I've got the time.
The bike has changed a bit since those pictures were taken and I've got a lot more planned.

That would be an aftermarket performance part.

Some shocks have a integrated reservoir... others, like this have a remotely mounted reservoir due to lack of space around the shock.

That's a remote reservoir for the rear shock.

Reservoirs are ugly and why mount them on the side of the bike if you can mount them elsewhere that is cooler?

Other tricks -- if you look real close, you can see the frame rails now curve into behind the taillight itself and no broken kink leftover from the beertray.  The grab handles have been narrowed and moved back to the edge of the taillight.  The seat release is unlike any other out there.  Taillight mounting is unique. And all the packaging within the rear tail section is 100% custom.  Then again, the upper shock area is unique for the 996 suspension setup.  And the frame gussets are usually missed by many -- but they are there.  Plus there are a few other modifications to the frame that most people miss also... but that is the fun of it and what makes this bike to unique!  ;D

Thanks for the comments guys.

No, I don't plan on entering it in any shows. It's not a restoration (I made no attempt to keep things "stock") and wasn't really intended to be anything other than a neat old bike to ride...

I've got a couple others underway that may make it to a show or two though (as customs) but we'll see.

Fakin 'ell.. they're scarily similar, whilst your's is plain old scary.

My engine currently sips just over 1/2 litre of oil every 1200-1300km (I thought it was more).. i'm looking for a strong 1100R or Bandit 1200 (tweaked) engine to mate with the 750's gearbox for mine.

Should be fun.. though I'll first install a WP rear shocker and service the forks.

I've done a few more small things to the bike since these pics were taken (CF side panels, custom cut belt covers, speedymoto top triple). I definitely want to get some new wheels this summer. Preferably black.

I need to give ATO Memphis some credit. He sold me his ex-box and inspired some of the mods.

Actually this is my bike - "Chris" Motored-Sports and I flipped the image for the laughs...

A closer look and you'll notice the SSS is gone and replace by an aluminum M1000 dual sided swinger. Then I removed the S*R exhaust and customized those Jardines that I got from Littleyellowduc and added an OEM exhaust from an M1000. I liked the S*R rearsets so I kept them. Coated the top clamp, fork lowers, headlight trim bezel, added some mirrors and a couple other little nifties.

Lets just say a chick wants to go for a ride on your bike....is that a permanent mod or is it possible to pop a biposto seat on.....

.....unless of course one is married......lets say 10 years just for arguments sake.  It may be impossible to go 2 up.......

Hm, something to think about!   [evil]

Hey, that's where I'm busy with!!! It was planned to be a surprise! My interchangeable mono-/biposto!
Well, the subframe is under construction. The footpegs etc. I have. It was actually my 'winterproject' for coming year but I started a bit earlier because I can't wait. Will take some time though. It has to be looking good.  ;)

Pics and maybe the progress I will show on 'Accessories & Mods' if you like.

Thanks Juan. Talking about a sweet bike! Your Monster is smashing!!! Congratulations of being 'The Bike of the DMF'. You must be so proud!! I am for you.
From the first moment I saw pics of your bike I loved it straigh away. It has this clean look I like so much about your bike.
 
Bike is still under construction. I will post pics later on A&M. You can also visit my website to see more pics, if you like.

Well this is how my Monster looked like a couple of weeks ago.
The ExBox is black now, but not totally.  ;) I like it this way though.
I'm busy with several things to mod. I will keep you all posted if you like, now I know how to post a pic.....

msincredible, thank you so much for your help by explaining how to post a pic on this website. You did it in such a wonderful way, than even guys like me could understand it. Thanks again!!!  [thumbsup]  [thumbsup]

Did you lose some teeth on your sprocket too?  Was it aluminum?  I had about 3-5 missing one day, did a wheelie and completely broke the rest off  :P  Less than 3,000 miles on it.

I had like 6 or 7 nubs left on my sprocket.  It was aluminum and it was destroyed, I was lucky to have made it to Ouray last year.  Stupid on my part.  [bang]

Yeah, black does look good when it is clean, too bad it doesn't stay clean very long.  I had a lot of trouble trying to decide between the black and the pearl, but the white wheels on the pearl was the deal breaker.

Very good photography. Nice picture. [thumbsup]

Hey, thanks guys.  DP is offering a tail-chop kit for this bike, nice bolt-on setup.  I'm going to order that soon, don't know why I didn't do it from the start.  I'm also thinking about trying to lower the Gauges and put a dual headlight up front.  I really think that duals give a bike more personality (aka "eyes)  Any opinions?  Suggestions for duals?

Markus. Very nice. Well built.  [thumbsup]

Thanks! It's a pretty subtle looking bike which is what I was after. Just about every part of it has been in some way altered and (in my opinion, anyway) improved. The best part is that it works really really well.... total rocket with the 966 motor and BSTs! Guy Martin of MBP is a wizard with Duc motors and he gets a big [thumbsup] from me. The motor puts out roughly 98Hp at the rear wheel with a full open exhaust but I run dB killers which undermines the power a wee bit. Keeps the neighbours happier tho. ;D

I bought the bike stock with under 4k miles in 2004 and it's about to turn over 19k. Until last year the closest Ducati dealership was over 10 hours drive away so I learned to do the required maintenance on it with the generous help of ToB. Been a fun project building it up in the winters and riding it during the summers.
 :)
______________________________

The new 696 looks super cool with those Termis. They really should be a mandatory mod IMO. +1 on blacking out the rearsets... but then I'm partial to the stealth look. ;)

I was finally able to take some pictures of my Monster yesterday. It has a little history around the Ducati Monster message boards. First owned by AZMonster from the DML until he sild it to Felix in '05 who also was a DML'er. I bought the bike from Felix this past winter and did a little restoration/modification. I hope AZMonster or Felix made the transition to this board so they can see the bike now!

Thanks for the feedback. I bought the heat wraps off ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Exhaust-Header-Heat-Wrap-1-16-X-2-X-50-Black_W0QQitemZ120270556189QQihZ002QQcategoryZ33631QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Pretty cheap compared to the other prices I have seen. Only thing is that if I were to do it again i think I would use a 1" wide wrap instead of the 2" I bought. It makes the fitting much tighter and doesn't loosen up over time.

I was finally able to take some pictures of my Monster yesterday. It has a little history around the Ducati Monster message boards. First owned by AZMonster from the DML until he sild it to Felix in '05 who also was a DML'er. I bought the bike from Felix this past winter and did a little restoration/modification. I hope AZMonster or Felix made the transition to this board so they can see the bike now!

Thanks for the feedback. I bought the heat wraps off ebay:

THanks, saved me a trip to the powder coaters! That's gonna look sharp too, you can see my Monster a couple pages back, it's the one with brown pipes.  :P

You'll have to tip-toe past the German Shepherd and hope neither of us is home or comes home before you're gone, because we are usually packing.   ;)

Talking about walking and missing......when I picked up the Monster I rode the Harley over to the dealer, grabbed the Monster while leaving the HD, and parked the Monster where I always park the bikes when I get home from work. I told my wife that we had to run into town to pick up my bike, and she thought I was talking about the Paso from my buddy's shop for a carb synch. When we went to leave, she walked right past the Monster! She didn't even bat an eye. When I told her to look at the bike, she freaked out because she never realized it wasn't a bike we already owned......Is this a sign that we have too many bikes?......I still want to find a good deal on a decent 851.

i really dig this board and i'm happy i joined right at the very start. i joined TOB the day the sh*t was hitting the fan. i couldn't believe no one was welcoming me. little did i know what drama was happenning. well someone PM'd me 2 days later and directed me to here  ;D

hey SSSA, well it's a lot different than my Foggy  :P

i'm a big fan of the bmw telelever/paralever suspension setup. much different than the foggy. the front end on the foggy seems a bit more squirrelly compared to the bmw. the bmw's got the duc beat in the canyons where there's uneven and unpredictable surfaces. but the duc's much more flickable and light so it's just a matter of slight compensation on either ride. the best i can describe it is the bmw's got very smooth sort of torque and power, i guess from the shaft drive ,and the duc's got raw power. roll ons on the bmw is like a spinning top whereas the duc's like a catapult.

i can definitely do more miles on the bmw but as i ride the duc more i'm getting used to the riding position. IMHO, it's like apples and oranges, both taste good but just different flavors... [moto] [moto]

still have the monster (always will) but I picked up a SV650 last winter for the track.  Lacks the torque of my monster, but rides nice otherwise.
Front end swapped for gixxer forks and R1 brakes, and shorty exhaust put on as well.  Suspension is awesome, handles great, the power delivery is incredibly smooooth.

As always the mod disease hit... but the bike is done.

Sorry Monstermash, this is where my dual headlights ended up.

Sorry for the poor quality, I don't have a digital camera at this time.

-IMHO, I would rather snatch up one of these "almost WSBK" bikes than an "almost MotoGP" D16RR....

-The similarities between the 1098R and the WSBK bike are much closer than that of the 'Sedici + the real GP bike, if my research proves to be accurate...  [coffee]

I've owned 22 motorcycles. Here are pics of the four Ducatis I owned. I don't currently have a Ducati, but I'm going to look at the 696 next weekend.  ;D

'99 ST2. Probably the best all-around bike I ever owned.
(http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj13/RedHydra/B008ManhattanKSApril2000Oscar.jpg)

'99 750 Supersport. Some wacky ass riding shoes.  ;D
(http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj13/RedHydra/B0061999Ducati750SS.jpg)

'99 750 Monster. I eventually mounted clip-ons on it (which was a bad idea). Great bike.
(http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj13/RedHydra/B0091999DucatiM750.jpg)

'03 999 Monoposto. I still don't understand why people think it's ugly. Painful yes, ugly... no way.

Frame is stock, except for being hacked-off just in front of the grab rails.

Rear shock is Works Performance ultrasport:

Foot pegs are LSL roadrace:

Looks much better than the previous seat.  Now you just need a custom fabbed tank to tie into the frame and seat a little more cleanly or you can glass the rear of the tank to eliminate the old seat cutouts and round out the rear.

Ruester (read with reversed translation glasses)

I don't like your bike - it has too much power, weak brakes, poor suspension, soft and understated exhaust, annoying clutch noise and I absolutely hate the color scheme. The Monster look isn't working for me at all.

Oh wait, I got it wrong - it is supposed to be the opposite ;)

Not too many mods yet. Termi slip ons, DP ecu, open airbox, removed front cowl, 14T front, sliders, new front and rear signals, shallow seat, flipped shift linkage (aka reverse "GP" shifting).

Next up: New mirrors, carbon fiber tail piece, midpipe.

My bike is a 2005 620 dark which I got from a friend who never drove it for about $3k with a little under 3000mi... It's my first bike and I have put about 2000mi on it, with many more to come... I decided to post pics after I installed my latest mods, the all black headlight and fairing from Chris @ Motored-Sports... I know she's simple, but that's how I like it.

The day she no longer had to hide, unused, in my friends garage...

(http://i343.photobucket.com/albums/o452/thejsnide/jeremy004.jpg?t=1217731898)

And what she looks like after I have done a few simple mods

(http://i343.photobucket.com/albums/o452/thejsnide/011.jpg?t=1217731852)

I really want exhaust next but am very indecisive... But other than that I am going to get a seat cowl and install the 14t sprocket I got a few days ago, and rock her just like that for a while

Zard titanium exhaust, DP gel seat, powder coated swing arm and rear shock spring, ventura bar with risers, Comp Werkes tail chop, CRG bar end mirrors, integrated tail light, front LED indicators, frame sliders, removed side covers, open air box, PCM III and custom mapping

JDS, not sure what exhaust you're running on that bike but i had a full remus race system (headers/carbon slip ons/catalytic/O2 delete). and smoothed everything out with a PClll. brought my redline up another 1k rpms and my top speed went up from 122mph to 130mph. not sure what the exact HP/TQ gains were but i'd say i got at least 10 to 12 more HP and TQ felt smooth through the whole range. definitely transformed the bike to a bit more racier feel.

but not sure how much of your budget you're allocating to the bmw... [evil]

 Its a ZTechnic. Never did nothing for performance, dropped alot of weight & made it sound,,, not bad.

how about your headers? are they stock with the catalytic convertor in place? i know it would take a bit of cash but i believe you'd see some improvement with free flowing headers in combo with the PClll... [evil]

anyways, back to the duc...your S4RS looks sweet. did you paint the wheels or did they come like that? and what exhaust is that? i've seen them before but can't remember the name...

Yes they are suburban machinery bars.  I have had'em for about a year now.  So far so good.  However lately, I have been seen a couple of bikes with more of a Renthal style bar and thay look pretty cool as well.  Kind of a step back torwards OEM parts but you can get annodized colors.

.... that I don't have one.


I was thinking the exact same thing... That bike is way too sexy, congrats. [thumbsup]

Thanks! Very pleased so far. It's pretty torquey and starts to settle in over 4000 rpm but I can live with that.
Still breaking it in and lots of room to grow.
Cheers!

all stock except all the DIY mods most people do right away....reflectors...framestickers.....emissions can is also removed now, but i just did that yesterday so no pics of that.  i think it really gives the bike a more authentic monster look without the whole fairing and canister up front.

Hey, thanks guys. The exhaust wasn't that hard to do. I just cut the header pipe right after the crossover, (on both sides) turned the cans up into position, then rewelded. I then welded a hanger to the frame to hold them up. You have to use SS cans because they have a nice little midpipe that brings the mufflers out and around the swingarm.
I have lots of pictures of it racing on my website here:   www.teamatomicracing.com    there's a navigation bar at the top of the page. Lots of photos and race reports for me and my teammate. I'm #620   [beer]

Thanks for the compliments...

To the question 2 posts up- it's a 2004 Matrix Edition 620. Obviously the Matrix tank is not on it, I have that in my garage, there's a small tank ding in it from getting rear ended and I genrally felt too paranoid riding around with a limited edition tank so I bought a second tank and had Ducpainter work some magic...

To above- Newest additions are the megaphones and the Pazzos...

all stock except all the DIY mods most people do right away....reflectors...framestickers.....emissions can is also removed now, but i just did that yesterday so no pics of that.  i think it really gives the bike a more authentic monster look without the whole fairing and canister up front.

Well, the also saved my engine from eating pavement twice... I see your point but either way, something is at risk... I must say that is pretty ironic that the sliders bent the frame, I guess they are a double edged sword.

One time bike was knocked over while parked, the other time I was rear ended at a red light- I think either time probably would have had a lot more damage if not for those frame sliders- a different type of accident may have created different results but so far they have proven their worth.

The seat is a Saddle Box seat made by a guy in France. It has a lockable "boot" in the rear where you can store quite a bit of stuff. He hand makes them and they are all molded and really well made. The seat is very very comfortable as well. 600km ride and the butt is fine. I can carry my tool kit, puncture repair kit, my Canon G9 camera and a my glasses in the boot on a day ride. So no more back pack......  [thumbsup]

My Italian.

Things I've done.
Removed the Charcoal canister, replaced shroud with Euro from MotoWheels (yeah sponsors!) and rerouted tubing
Painted 'Brembo' (better than the whole caliper red)
Painted the front exhaust shield black to flow into the frame lines better
Painted the headlight bracket (why it was ever not black makes me wonder)
Painted the exhaust hangers black (again to flow into the frame lines)
Replace all headlights with bright whites (4000K for main and high beam, 3300K for midlight)
Replace long tail with Tidy Tail from RG Racing
Put on reflective pearl white stripes on the rims
Removed front fork reflectors
Removed frame stickers
Replaced stock seat with a DP seat (purchased at the time of the bike from AMS in Dallas)
oh almost forgot, 14T front sprocket

The Bike is the DMF (and a lil tob [laugh])

The bikes frame, and most of the parts are from a 900, the engine is a carbed 750.

Steve Baron aka Trouble painted the bike. John Ryti aka ducman851 assembled the bike, using parts donated by DMF/DML family members.
Some parts were donated, and some parts were paid for using monetary donations, sent in from all over the world. I think, if I remember correctly, the chain was off one of the Bostrom boys bikes.
Not that I want to send people back to TOB, but there is an entire section explaining the whole story. Someday, I'll write down a lil history of the bike, and submit it as a bike of the moment.
The exhaust is a polished set of Ducati Performance megaphones (they be loud  [evil] )

Long story short.... the kind and generous people here, gave her to me as a wedding gift (along with a veeeeeery nice honeymoon)

If I live a thousand lifetimes, I'll never be able to repay the kindness you all have give me and Michelle (das wifey)

This coming weekend, she travels north to be at La Ducati Days :-*

[Reprinted from the DFW forum]

Okay, so I've been doing some minor tinkering and modification to my two girls.

One day I was almost run over while riding the Monster.  Hit the horn button but nothing.  That is, nothing reaching even MY ears.  The horn was operational, just anemic in a sonic sense of the word.

So I picked up some Fiamm knock-offs at the Auto Zone.  They were glossy black on one side and glossy red on the other.  So I hit 'em with a few coats of VHT flat black.  Much better.

Not much real estate left on a S4RS for mounting, but I did the best I could.  Put the relay and fuse under the left side panel.

Also popped some coin for a Zero Gravity Dark Smoke windscreen.

(http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll176/nordog59/HornsZeroGrav.jpg)

(http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll176/nordog59/RelayFuse.jpg)

Consuelo didn't escape attention either.

The H-D folks in Texas really screwed up my front brakes and handling.  So I rebuilt the calipers and threw on some new rotors and pads.  While I was at it I finally installed some rubber fork seal gators for the old school look and the real world bene of protecting the fork seals from dust, rocks, etc.

Also, finally mocked up the drag bars for the H-D: K&N bars, Rizoma Reverse Retro Bar End Mirrors, and some vintage BMW bar end signals with red lenses in the rear.  I've got the Badlands Illuminator Pro module, so I can remove the front signal wiring altogether, and run the rear signal wires to the bar ends.  The Badlands module turns the signals into run, brake, and turn signals.

(http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll176/nordog59/H-DBarEnds.jpg)

The garage here at the apartments is coming along nicely.  Picked up a peg board for 5 bucks and hung up some of my hand tools.  The tool box was getting over loaded.  You can see Francesca, Consuelo, and that's Pricilla, the heavily endowed (top case) Aprilia RSV Mille belonging to my roommate.

The bracket mounts to the forks. Since this photo the guage was lowered, and the headlight bracket was shortened.

Cheers DuciD

Thanks for the nice comments.  Sorry about the delay I haven't been checking for a while.  I made the video just after I'd bought a new camera and was trying it out.  As for gearing I run 15/41 and clutch it up in second.  The std gearing was 15/39 and it still runs out to the same top speed but has better acceleration.  Here are some newer pictures...

Mods:

Full DP kit, bar-end mirrors, Buell XB12-blinkers, Monza Bellypan, painted pressure plate+new clutch springs, open clutch cover.

This winter I'm going to do a tail chop, change blinkers + tail light, get rid of the horn, relocate the license plate, new clutch, maybe try to chop the Termis too...

Nice!! I want to do that to my Termi as well, but I also would like to convert them to a high mount side by side once I chop the tail.

Mods (chronologically...)
Motovation bar end and axle sliders

Pazzo adjustable levers
Oberon bar end mirrors

Upcoming Mods:
Some kind of exhaust (I'm thinking ex-box)
rear-sets (something with adjustability... and to get rid of the big aluminum 'wing')

The Thunderheaders on the Harley came that way.

I really like your pearl white 696!! I have one, too.

I'm not a fan of most bar-end mirrors, but yours look GREAT! I'll have to look into getting some.

I also like the stripes around the tires. How much did those cost?

This is my 2005 620 Dark.  I chopped the tail and used some light from SDC and insterted them into the frame for turn signals, relocated the license plate light to the underside of the bike, chopped & cored stock cans (sound great!), LED tail light, bar end mirrors, carbon fiber windshield.  I still have some more mods to make but I'm pretty happy with what I've done so far.....

When you get back, here's a tip. Take your heel guards and spray them with some oven cleaner (not the "Self cleaning oven" type, you need the good stuff with lye). Let them sit for about 30 mins, then wipe them off. The anodizing will come off with it leaving the bare metal. Polish them up and they'll match quite nicely with those pipes....


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: venomousr1993 on December 09, 2008, 04:30:51 AM
Thanks for the tip on the heel guards.  Unfortunately the stock heelguards won't fit on the "s" pipes.  The quality on the Fresco slip ons is very poor.  On the other hand, the QD mid pipes are excellent quality.  I will most likely ditch the entire exhaust on it now and switch to the QD EXBox when i return and have it ceramic coated black.  I think it will flow better with the bike and give me the "open wheel" look I really want.

If you told me about that paint scheme I wouldn't be very positive, but Devil, you really hit it big time.

I have to wonder that as well.  Don't think I would replace the M900 with a 686, maybe an M1100 though.  Your bike though; it's all good as long as you are happy with it.   [thumbsup]

Hi Dolph,

are those Rizoma mirrors good? Does it give an improved field of vision over the stock? I am thinking about
them because they look great, but I was wondering if they really improve that.   

Cheers
   Well I can tell you that they don't vibrate at all.

Since I'm 6'5" I still have to look under my armpits to see behind me. That's How I do it. Just lift my arm a bit and look in the mirror where my armpit would be and I see the road behind.  Otherwise I see my shoulders in the mirrors. ( Most any mirrors ) except my K1200S which I can get a clear view w, it's mirrors.

The Rizomas do give a little more piece of vision from being out a little further.     Dolph

   Thanks el.  #2 is bone stock except it has no " black canister " on it .Since I have never ridden it , I didn't bother to pull the reflectors off.

The black canister disappeared somewhere between the showroom and when it got delivered to my home.?     ;D

I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with it.

I may replace it with a Streetfighter S , or something else .

May replace the K1200S for a BMW S1000RR , lots of options upcoming in '09.     Dolph

Are those Rizoma Reverse Retros on your Monster?  I'm considering a pair of those rather than CRGs because they seem to add less length to the bars.  How do you like them?

Damn, so the Rizomas tag mirrors when you're splitting too, huh?  I broke a lady's mirror right off her Honda with the stock mirrors right after I got my Monster.  I was hoping the Rizomas would be better for that purpose.  Don't the CRGs extend the bar length, too?  I really don't want to add any length or have to fool about with flipping my mirrors in and out when I'm on the freeway.  That's why I was shying away from the CRGs.  But does mounting them under the bar reduce that effect?

Back in the day I raced 125cc Motocross in both the 125 and Open classes riding Honda then Yamaha.  To say these bikes were modified would be an understatement as the motors were highly modified to produce the maximum amount of power (read usable) within their limited power band, they would just scream.  As for the suspensions they were maxed out as well and probably beyond what the factory engineers and designers had in mind.  Getting it on the pipe and keeping it there to produce as much power as you could and getting to the ground was the challenge.  They were great fun but lead to the search for the perfect tunable and adjustable suspension, the Holy Grail!

Zoom and fast forward to today…. I have always enjoyed riding and I would look at others bikes and think ‘would I own that?’ to myself.  I have always been partial to BMW and Ducati and one day while talking with a co-worker and friend I discovered that he had a Ducati (S2R 800) and over the course of a few months he proceeded to answers all my questions and provided quite a bit of useful information not only related to Ducati but to other bikes as well.  It wasn’t soon after that I would find myself at various dealers checking out different bikes and looking at what was on the ‘new’ market as well as checking out the ‘used’ market as well.  Then one day when I had stopped by a local dealer I was checking out what they had on hand I found the bike that I would eventually get, a 2007 Monster S2R 1000.  The interesting thing about this bike is that it had been set up by Ducati as a Show or Press bike with quite a few Performance related and Carbon Fiber items listed in the Ducati Performance Catalog.  Although, I have added a few things so that it better fits me I am very happy with the S2R1000.  It has an enormous amount of torque that pulls from very low all the way up to the higher rpm’s and truly it can get up an go!  So even though the dark smoke face shield is down know that I am riding with a smile.  But there is the issue of the suspension... it needs to be improved upon and as I have said I am well aware of the fact that when it comes to suspensions they are the Holy Grail……. And so begins the quest!

Thanks for the comment and also for embedding!   I was trying to figure that part out....

Here's a FAQ for it: http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=109.0

Basically you right click on your pic in flickr (or wherever you host your pics at) and then select "Copy Image Location". Then you paste that info in between image tags.

[ img ]http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff132/lagerman72/Ducatimirrors1.jpg[ /img ]

Like that but without the spaces in the brackets.

Hope that helps!

Thanks hon. I like naked. [thumbsup]

I haven't seen many 800s with this simple color scheme but I'm told it is stock.

I'm planning on a stripe at some point. We all know a stripe makes it faster. [cheeky]

ah the big question is is it better to keep it stock; and some bolt on parts or just customize the beats with 2 backs out of it ....

I have no stripes; all black; and replaced most that wasn't black with carbon (heal guards & belt covers); removed anthing that was stainless or chrome with aluminum; its as purely naked as i could get while still keeping it looking stock.  So I'm kinda liking you bike shiny and necked.  Maybe get some barend mirrors ... it will look awesome; plus i find I can see more .... just my deux centavos.  Design consultation freeeee!

Very nice bike. 1 quibble...frame stickers  ;D

Frame stickers - if removed; carefully remove them with a heat gun; BUT please put them back on the frame where there hidden (under the seat is a good spot, but avoid where the the rubber seat bumpers rest on the frame).  Its a part of the bike and I believe along with many transportation authorities & collectors that there applied for good reason and in the future if anyone asks tell em your sitting on them, also in the future bike collectore like to have the original pieces to a bike.  Just my deux centavos and a couple of pointers for future consideration.

Besides collectors, what reason do I have to keep frame stickers?  Does anyone actually get tickets for not having them?  Mine are long gone (well, some of em; the rest to follow), and I wouldn't have 'em back.  Not interested in the future collectability of my bike.

But authorities?  Does the Texas State Trooper (who has yet to pull me over) actually know what frame stickers are applied to my S4RS and where they belong?

Perhaps, but I'm incredulous.

Nah, he doesn't. It's more of a registration/vehicle sale thingy. The DMV et al would care as would some states for emissions info etc...

Great bike. Every time I see something similar, I am torn between the tailchop and the short tail unit. I have the same termi setup currently
with the long tail, and I can not decide what to do with the back. What kind of turn signals do you have on the short tail here?

I respect riders of all bikes... just because one isn't of my preference doesnt mean i cant hang out with people who like em...
Thats like sayin that just because a friend of mine may want to date fat chicks that i can't hang out with him because i don't like them.. lol


I was brought to this board by some of the Dallas area riders that I went on a ride with one day.  And don't get me wrong.. there's a nice list of Ducs I'd love to own. but track bits are cheaper for the kawi..

The comradery of the boards has made me feel welcome overall.. even in the Euro vs. Jap bike discussions we've had.

Ever since I got to Okinawa, Japan, I have been itching to get back on two wheels and beat the cagers...especially in traffic.  I would have loved to get another Ducati, but on the island you can only go so fast and with the abundance of terrain, I started looking at dual purpose bikes.  This popped up last week and though it sat for several months and had 15,000 km, it was in good shape and priced right.  I already have took the snorkel off, changed the fluids, and done some surface corrosion removal.  My 2006 S4R Monster is still back in the states in storage waiting for my return, but for now this fits the bill.

2005 Honda XR250 Motard
Plans include:
-320mm brake upgrade, plus master cyl ect
-280 big bore kit with cam
-core the stock pipe
rejet the carb...125 main jet
-powdercoat alot of small parts black

Anyway enjoy

Hey is this somewhere in Europe? Maybe Vienna? I have been to that Shakey's.....

I haven't been to a Shakeys in forever...

Thanks..Yeah they are Rizoma Track 77's.  All I can say is that Rizoma is pretty proud of em.  They are some of the best quality I've seen and have the extentions which I needed with the tailchop.  Motovation Usa is pretty close to where I live and they have everything Rizoma in stock so I'm like a kid in a candy store.  Very nice guys as well.

Its like getting the Redline or other BMX bike as a kid, right? first things that go are the reflectors...


And while I like the idea of not worrying about modding the bike right away and just concentrate on learning the bike, I cannot stop thinking about getting a fender elim for it. I look at my shadow while riding and the bike looks like its taking a $h#t

I'll consider the frame sliders stock.. They figured in the cost into the payments..

So, I've been lurking around here for a while now.  Mostly looking, readling, learning from all of you.  Posting a little less... 

Well, here's my Monster's story;

My brother-in-law purchased it a few years back.  And, I've been wanting one ever since I first saw it.  When he got it it already came with arrow high-mount exhaust, racing carbs, K&N pod filters, and a clean tail chop.

I hadn't ever riden a motorcycle yet.  But knew I had to learn fast if I was going to get my own Monster.  I imediately got my permit, took a riding classes, and got my liscense.  Then I waited for a good, CHEAP, entry level monster to come available in my area.  Many of you may remember getting annoying low-ball offers from me... sorry.

Well, about a year ago, my brother-in-law was in town visiting and he dropped the bike.  It was actually the 2nd time he dropped it and both times just happened to be within blocks of my apartment, despite the fact that he lives 4 hours away! 

This time the bike (and his knee) were in too bad shape to ride.  Not wanting to repair, he decided to sell it and put the money towards a 748 (he had been wanting one anyway). 

I gave him a very modest amount of money for it and quickly replaced the right rearset, pedals, controls, mirror, blinker handlebars, etc. with help from, well you guys (many thanks to Gil, aka m9hundo, for the parts!).  I now also have a new tank that I am waiting to put on.  I'm afraid I may drop it myself so am leaving the dented tank on it for now.

After replacing the handlebars I'm now considering clip-ons, but we'll see... 

Well, here it is, my 2000 Ducati Monster M750;

Thank you.  Im using two Nikon SB-900's with soft dome installed on both.  One is on the camera and the other is on a tripod on the left.  Im bouncing both in a 90 degree angle.   All were taken with Nikon D300 handheld.  First two with the Nikon 17-55mm f/2.8 and the last three with the Nikon 50mm f/1/8.

Why yes it is. This one is not his standard design though. I ordered it from him in the fall of 05 and he deliverd it early 06. I found a warrenty issue and sent it back. At this time I asked for a few changes. This happend a few times (me asking for changes). Norm worked with me for about a year on getting it to its current state. I love it! I had the wheel base shortened and I played with the ride height as well. I was able to get rid of all of the pesky head-shake that the original 620 was giving me.

Wow, thanks for the kind words. Here is a short list of the major mods:
Single Sided Swingarm - Norm
rear wheel - 996
Cycle Cat rearsets
Cycle Cat clipons
custom cans - me
Gage cluster - motogadget
engine - 2000 M900Sie
CF front fender - painted
seat cowl - painted
Tail chop - me
rewired bike to accept the 620 controls - me
PCIII w/custom map - dyno'ed @ 80HP I was just trying to get the bike to run well with all of the mods.
K&N pod filters - air box removed.
Re-plumbed the fuel lines to work with the new 900 engine. The trottle boddies are reversed from the 620. That sucked! I had to make up all new control cables.
showa adjustable fork
penske rear shock
and several other mods to the rest of the bike.

Thank you for the offer. I have plans for them anyway. I have seen a few options out there. I like the new SBK style. I still have so much to do to this bike. The short list includes:
new reservoirs
ceramic coat the exhaust flat black
new levers
paint/remove belt covers
black-out the oil cooler
and repair my speedo (the new sensor broke off)


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: junior varsity on March 20, 2009, 08:16:07 AM
I've busted a speedo cable and there's nothing more annoying than looking down and seeing the needle resting at zero while you are on the freeway. I'd suggest Rizoma Reservoirs but I'm not sure that's the look you are going for. I do like that they offer them in multiple shapes and sizes, but do know that they "sweat" a little brake fluid to the exterior now and again (I have no idea why, nor does it seem to be adversely affecting performance, interior fluid levels, or the exterior finish.)

Finished my SV track + street fighter today.

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3554/3376979407_0af26ccc2a_b.jpg)


-Installed a belly pan from Twin Shack which I spray painted earlier this week, and  epoxied in some mesh inserts.

- Painted the front header with some High-temp paint, to hide it a lil'.

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3600/3377709808_84e701f560.jpg?v=0)


- Finished wiring in new Koso gauges.
- Velcroed on my $58 cheapo lap timer to the top triple.

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3568/3376910073_bf7312e390_b.jpg)

- Finished installing new headlight.  Took off my Dominator dualies and decided to go "old  school" cheapo, with a set from UFO, as this IS a trackbike. 

- Used a set of fork clamps to install my turn signals.  As this bike will be on the street until my duc monster is running again.

It takes about 5 minutes to put some painters tape on the turnsignals, lights and brake lights to turn it from street duty to track duty.  And a minute to pull it off and screw in a mirror for street duty.

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3540/3377722432_f6826b8b1f.jpg?v=0)

And my SV is set for this season.

I started it up, let the high-heat paint cook on the header, about 10 minutes, until it stopped smokin', then took it around the block ;D <~~ with a big grin!!

El Matador, my knees are in bad shape and I'm not ready to have the joints replaced yet. I'm going to get a BMW K1300GT for it's more upright position.

I'm still going to keep the " R " so I can get my thrills  on occasion and not just be able to ride every 3-4 days .Also I've decided to keep my #1 S4Rs.

The GT I'm hoping ,will allow me to ride more often. It has 160 hp and 99 lb.ft, of torque so it's no snail.     Dolph    :)

There's no cleaning that, should just cut your losses and cut it off.

Thanks man! The bike started out as an 2000 M900Sie. I had the motor built by Guy Martin of MBP Ducati into one of his Testarosso big bores. It's now a 966 and puts out 98RwHP and 70lb/ft of torque. The bike has had a ton of other performance and cosmetic mods over the last +4 years including BST wheels, full suspension reworking, and new ergos. I've tried to keep it all pretty subtle looking though and I think it's turned out that way.

(http://i355.photobucket.com/albums/r462/MarkSidler/Cafe%20Monster/Cafe7.jpg?t=1241782817)

Some pics of the 966 motor being built by MBP in Quebec. Guy Martin is a whiz when it comes to Ducs. [thumbsup] I couldn't be happier with how the motor turned out.

All told it received Mahle 966 pistons, oversized valves, new guides and valve seats, lightened flywheel (50%), adjustable cam pulleys, oil fed cam covers, rechromed rockers, MBP collets. The manifolds and heads were mated and flowed for max efficiency. The stock ECU was reflashed and the redline upped to 10k RPM, and I had my PC3 dyno-tuned to smooth everything out. We kept the stock 900ie cam so the motor is still very streetable. A hotter cam would have squeezed another +2HP out of it but I didn't intend to track the bike and wanted to keep the low-end torque where it was. I'm happy I stayed with the stock cam as the bike is a real screamer as it is. The heads were powdercoated black rather than Guy's usual Testarosso red because, as I said, I wanted the Monster to stay more or less a sleeper.

Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: BozcoRob on May 08, 2009, 08:40:29 AM
Disintegration Ray for f'd up cagers ;D

But seriously - steering damper (n left out to protect the innocent)


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: junior varsity on May 08, 2009, 08:46:58 AM
steering damper is a shock like device - no spring, that reduces headshake. They have adjustable resistance so you can crank "it" up for faster speed riding, where the bars physically turn less, or crank it down for city riding, where you might need to turn the bars lock to lock (like in a parking lot).

Superbikes often come from the factory with dampers. On Monsters, they can be mounted to the frame, pointed forward, or laterally across the top triple using the ignition cover bolts, and thirdly there are mounts for below the triple as well. They are frequently mounted on the left side of the bike to facilitate adjustments while moving (since you can't really take your hand off the throttle to mess with it).

Nearly all suspension manufacturers market a damper. (don't mistake damper for dampner or dampener). Popular choices are Ohlins, Toby, Matris, DP, Storz, Arrow, Bitubo, Scotts, Sprint, HyperPro among many.


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: Markus on May 08, 2009, 09:06:19 AM
Thanks for the compliments fellas. ;D

Yep, it's my purse-snatcher steering damper. ;D It's an Ohlins unit that I've mounted with the adjuster wheel in the forward position. Makes it nearly impossible to adjust on the fly but I had to mount it that way or the pin would have contacted my left side frame slider at full left turn lock. When side-mounting a steering damper the fork mounting bracket usually sits above the lower triple, but I needed some more clearance for the Thruxton fairing so it went under the bottom triple instead.

There is no way I could happily ride my Monster with the BSTs without a steering damper. The wheels are so light that they follow any road imperfection and the bike tracks all over the place. The damper lessens the amount of steering correction I need to input on rougher roads. That helps a ton on our Nova Scotia roads which can be pretty beaten up. I run my Ohlins unit at 2/3 full most of the time.

It's been a fun project improving the bike over the last 4 years. It started out as a new-to-me, totally stock 900Sie with 3k miles on it. The odo is now at roughly 18k so it does get ridden. We have some excellent roads here in NS but our winters are long so there's lots of opportunity for fiddling and modding.

Quite right.  A steering dampener is one of those errant water sprinklers hosing down the 90 degree off camber on ramp to the interstate hwy.

I HATE those damn steering dampeners.

Looking good clittelm750 [thumbsup] The white bodywork and black frame and swingarm are really slick together. Love the older style font you used on the tank too.

Couple of questions: How much did you shorten your exhaust cans? What bar are you using?


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: clittelm750 on May 09, 2009, 03:42:08 AM
Thanks!
-I shortened the cans about 6 inches +/- after the tail chop they hung out SOOO far and they were realy getting in the way of my 12 o'clock wheelies (haha yeah right) 
- The Bar is a Pro Taper Evo (Carmichael) - I love the feel of it (not to mention the look) .. It's an oversize bar so had to have a few parts machined (http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss288/clittel/Riser.jpg)
That tab off - and then a hunk of aluminum to raise it about 3/4 of an inch!

This is just awesome.   front light bezel , the springs , the pipes going to the exhaust , the handle bar , the tank with no logo, the fork cover.  This is just what I envision on mine.  I got long way to go.  Got rear sets, the clutch cover and opposite side powder coated.  Just bought a used yellow front cowl that I had painted but came back gray and had to send it back.  I got a long way to go.   This one is just awesome.

Couple pics of my '03 S4 after  winter mods... New black led tail light (can you see it :) ), new blinkers around the bike, tail chop, mirrors, belly pan painted etc.

Rear tire is busted, so that needs to be replaced, and I'm also thinking about building a small CF-windscreen, I'll post pics if i find the motivation...

Looks nice.  Are those stock signals?  What exactly are you guys chopping ?  I need to do that on my bike.  I still want to leave the beer tray because I do ride in ride and I think it helps against the mud etc during rain.

There are no stickers on this bike, I paint bike`s and make decals for a living, all the logos are airbrushed onto the bike.

Basecoat is Titanium Pearl white, with ducat red and the desmo valves are done in mattalic silver, same color as the Paul smart Rep`s

The Seat cover mimicks the frony mudgaurd.

The bike are being stripped as it will be used for the Desmo owners club competition entry for South Africa, some mods I am busy with are widening the rear wheel. [thumbsup]

Picassa is a little tricky, you do not want to use the link. You want to use the "Embed image" choice (first select thumbnail size of "large 800px") Then copy the link to notepad. It will look like this

There are no stickers on this bike, I paint bike`s and make decals for a living, all the logos are airbrushed onto the bike.

Basecoat is Titanium Pearl white, with ducat red and the desmo valves are done in mattalic silver, same color as the Paul smart Rep`s

The Seat cover mimicks the frony mudgaurd.

The bike are being stripped as it will be used for the Desmo owners club competition entry for South Africa, some mods I am busy with are widening the rear wheel. [thumbsup]


Looks awesome!  nice work! [thumbsup]

Don't let the guys beat you up too bad. You're both wearing helmets which sets you about 100 times further ahead than the summer squids out there!!! And about the reflectors, my sweethearts' Monster actually won an award for "most stock monster"  [laugh]

I modded the rear hugger because I didn't want to remove it. We had a chain break on our other Monster and it ripped into the crank case - the thought of what that could have done to a leg is horrific. So removing the chain guard which is part of the rear guard is not something that I am willing to do.

Is the plastic chain guard really going to stop that chain if it snaps though?

All the plastic chain guard is good for is keeping chain goo from flinging everywhere. If you want to protect your leg, wear leather and keep you chain maintained.

At the rate that the chain is spinning the chain guard would most likely serve as a deflection tool in the event to a snap. You really come off sounding arrogant by suggesting that I wear leather and maintain my chain - don't you think that I know and do that already??

The comment wasn't meant to offend. If you look at my post I am quoting you as well as another member. The discussion was about whether chain guards would protect your leg in the event of a chain breaking. I am merely stating my view on the issue not trying to preach to you about wearing gear.

Well, finally got my beloved 2006 S2R1K back after some minor woes, 20,000km service and having the heads and casings blasted clean - and in the case of the casings, painted a nice grey - which looks similar in colour to the newer bikes.

So I thought I'd post her up.

I've got some little aftermarket front turn signals to add, and a crankcase breather, and that'll about do it, i reckon.

She's running with the standard Euro ECU, full Arrow system, open box and K&N filter. I've also fitted the FatDuc Manipulator. The bike is running very well, with almost zero popping - I only get this now sometimes when riding very hard - 3rd - 2nd gear downshifts.

I'm getting anything between 200 and 240km's per tank. I'm using standard gearing.

Other mods are DP tail with integrated, smoked LED Tail light and turn signals, open clutch as you can see - the Motowheels clutch cover and the Rizoma Belt Covers really go well together IMO.

There is a DP Steering damper, CRG LS mirrors and Rhino Moto bar ends. A clutch cylinder and sprocket cover from MPL tuning parts.

Some CF for the front and rear ends finish her off..

Cheers...

NOTHING. that's a beautiful bike. the white on red with white rims.. wow. ok maybe get rid of the udder. how about midpipe with hi double sided exhausts in CF.

Naaaah..they will either be replaced or rebuilt and anodized grey w/DLC coated sliders  ;D

BTW...how do you remove the forks for service when you vinyl wrap them.  Or do you have to re-wrap the top half every time?  I change my fork oil annually.

That's one good looking S4Rs !

There are times I'd like to have Arrows rather than Termis from some Arrows I've heard on 1098s.

I think they have a deeper more muscular sound.

A few years ago I would have completely agreed with you.   ;)  Not any more.  Now all I have to do is wait for the prices of used hypers to come down so I can add one to the collection.   

I know I need help.   [bang]

Actually the theory was I pickup the 748 and sell the monster.  I can't bring myself to do it.  It would be like selling an old friend.  We need the money but I can't do it!!!!!

No they're just the stock forks.  In that pic, it's sitting under  a tree in a narrow alley.  I guess w/ majority of the light coming from the front of the bike it just makes them look shiny.

I like what you did with the front fender.  Are the fender and brackets from a GT 1000?   


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: scoprire on August 15, 2009, 02:52:36 PM
Yeah it's from a GT 1000.  I really liked the lines of the brackets and thought they went well w/ the frame.  The fender itself is a wider/shallower curve than the stock fender; it changes the look of the frontend quite a bit.  Beauty is, that it's a simple bolt on; fender, brackets, mounting rings, and bolts are all that's are needed.  Well, a healthy checkbook if you buy directly from Ducati, but that goes for just about everything on our bikes. 

another pic of it here http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=24487.0 (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=24487.0) along w/ the chainguard I made to match the fender brackets better.

I agree! Very nice touch. [thumbsup] [bow_down] Probably good for at least 10+mph on the top end. ;D Surprised more folks don't do that on the red S2R/S4R bikes. Me likey.

I think Kingbaby may have posted some pics of my bike in the past, but here are a couple of my favorite shots.  [moto]

Are those round magents stuck on the tank? I have magnets that same size holding up stuff on my metal storage cabinet in my garage. Just curious... if so why are they there? ???

They are rubber furniture foot pads from Lowes. They give some nice grip & protect the tank from my leathers.  Kingbaby & Ducducgooseme have them on their 1098's where their knees hit the side fairings.  They work great & are cheap...BONUS!

Do they gum up the tank?
Also, why are Keith and DDGM's knees hitting the fairings?  :o (And what am I doing wrong?)  ;D

No, they peel right off. 

As far as knees rubbing, your 996 side fairings are different than ours.  Leathers like to gnaw on that spot pretty bad on the 1098

As some of you may know, I just bought Tom's (Monstermash's) bike. El Matador and Desmolu graciously volunteered to ride her down from MA for me  [evil]. As usual, Matador's presence summoned the wrath of the rain gods for the entire trip  :P, so the bike is not entirely detailed in these pics. I bamboozled Matador into chopping the tail for me, and he also made a bracket for the tail light and turn signals (signals not mounted yet in these pics). Soon to come: pods, custom cf velocity stacks by Matador, billet frame plugs and sprocket cover, and debating whether to change to Boomtubes, given that the custom exhaust Tom made sounds sick (thanks man  [thumbsup])

(http://i653.photobucket.com/albums/uu256/shivvy80/IMG_0229.jpg)

The bike is welcomed home by her new siblings (and Matador):

Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: DRKWNG on December 05, 2009, 03:48:50 AM
First off I need to get the bike broken in thoroughly.  After that is done I will start going down the road of sorting out the same sort of fueling issues that quite a few of the Street Fighter owners are going through.  The came with the Akra cans, and KTM approved ecu map, but the bike is still running with a closed loop system.  But surprisingly enough, it also seems to be easily curable by intalling a PCIII but I want to try simply taking the O2 sensors out of the loop first.  We shall see how that goes. 

Other than that, most of the things that are done to these are more cosmetic in nature, but there are a few motor tweaks that are available.  One of the things that I am thinking about getting is a motohooligan airbox set up; lots of information on those are available over at superduke.net.  The WP suspension is pretty top shelf stuff, all it needs is to get set up to me and my riding style.  More to follow. 


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: DRKWNG on December 05, 2009, 08:26:53 AM
The SM is the direction that I originally intended to go with, and I was working a SWEET deal on a left over '07 SMR from a dealership in SoCal.  One of the guys at the dealership said that he was going to hold the bike for me for twenty-four hours so I could get my affairs in order, but another guy ended up selling it that night.  So the same dealership offered me a STUPID deal on a brand new '08SD.  I ended up paying eight hundred dollars more for the SD (with Akra pipes included) than I would have for the stock SMR, and saved more than three thousand than the already "deeply discounted price" that was being asked for the one SD (an '07) that was in Hawaii.  It only cost me $625 to ship it down here, and the odometer showed 000000 miles on it when I picked it up at the port.

Post by: DRKWNG on December 05, 2009, 08:38:52 AM
Not really so much that.  More the fact that the economy in SoCal is really in the tanks and you have lots of dealers sitting on sales floors that are packed with last years (and in some cases older) bikes.  Couple that with the fact that KTM's street bike sales never really took off in the states in the first place and you have quite a few really good deals out there.

I will always have a soft spot for the classic monsters, be it 2 or 4 valve.  One suggestion though, take off the bracket that the silencers hand on and spray it matte black.  You would be surprised with how well it completely disappears when it gets shadowed out.

Great idea, thanks.  Unfortunately I don't have any place at present to work on her, but that should change in a few months.  She needs some TLC right now; detailing mostly, but also the ceramic coating on the headers is fading and flaking off near the exhaust ports.  Need to have them re-coated.

Oh, and thanks for all the appreciative comments.  Here are some another views:

Thanks my friend.  Fortunately, married live is bliss; Unfortunately, I won't be back to Texas until we can buy a place here, at which time I'll be back to get my HD and other worldly possessions.  We don't have any idea when that will be.  We're waiting on a rather large payday, that's way overdue, to use as our downpayment on a house.

I prefer the bar end mirrors in the "up" position.  Having them in the "down" position took some time to adjust to because I have to look down much more to actually use them.  The problem was that lane splitting here in LA caused me to clip too many car mirrors with the bar ends in the "up and out" position.  I first tried them in the "up and in" position but could only see my arms reflected in the mirrors; so it was "down and in".  Haven't clipped a car since the change.

NorDog, good to hear from ya'! You probably know there was talk that the legislature in Austin was kicking around a TX lane splitting law. I am sure it's very useful in CA but even if the law were to pass here I figure it would be a good way to get shot in TX. [bang] The drivers here are so God awful anyway I wouldn't want to give them another reason to kill me. Even if the law is passed it doesn't do you any good if you were in the right when you're dead. It would take decades to educate the TX driving public of any new lane splitting laws. In the mean time the drivers would just lump lane splitters with all the squidly stunters.

The one time I rode through Europe years ago I loved the respect the cagers gave the riders. Took a bit to get used to all the bikes splitting lanes at stop lights and moving to the front of the pack. All the drivers expected you to. Riding through the Alps oogling at all the amazing scenery I would be content just to putt along behind the car or truck in front of me. It was funny, they'd get mad that you weren't passing them and would frantically wave you past. [laugh] [moto]

OK... end of major thread jack! Sorry, won't happen again. Back to DMF bike pics!! [thumbsup]

This isn't my pic since I don't have a camera but it is one of my bikes. Sorry for only offering the link to a buddies photobucket account... hope it comes through.

It's my '06 Sports 1000/Back in Black special. This is not one of the "100 numbered" bikes by DNA but the actual Back in Black #2 built by Jeff Nash and gang at Advanced Motorsports. The #1 BinB was built for DNA by Nash and was featured in the January 2007 issue of Motorcyclist magazine. The #2 bike was kept secret and stock until they sold it to me. The #1 bike had a mega built up hot rod motor and cool custom megaphone exhaust. Mine has a stock motor and the Termi slip ons and DP ecu. It has full Ohlins, DP comfort seat and taller bars, Evo license plate kit, Speedymoto pressure plate/cover, DP carbon belt covers and billet front sprocket cover, CRG LS mirrors, Moto-Wheels 1/4 turn gas cap. Since this pic it now has a Storz Performance steering damper and rear carbon hugger and front fork guards from CarbonFiberMan.com. It's a fun scooter.

Those BSTs are really sweet! [thumbsup] Probably worth more than all the mods and upgrades combined on my bike!! [laugh] Bet they make a big difference in turn in and general handling. [moto]


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: DRKWNG on January 02, 2010, 02:48:04 PM
The BST's completely changed the way the bike handles.  Turn in is VERY quick now, and by that I mean HOLY SHIT quick.  I have been spending more time on the SuperDuke over the last couple of weeks and took the SC out for a spin a few days ago.  Had to re-learn how to turn the thing.  It kept dropping into the turns so quickly and so far that I was forced to alter the line almost every time.

And to answer your question, I am running SpeedyMoto's triple set up.  Decided to go the entire route to be able to fit SBK forks.  Here is a thread that goes over the entire swap.

Oh yeah, a photo that great takes a great amount of attention to many different details.  I was just reflecting (pun intended) on the primary importance of proper lighting.  After all, it's called photography for a reason; it's about graphing photons.

Pretty sure he cut em...this is the bike that i have pinched a bunch o ideas from.  After I cut my Termis, IMO, they finally sounded the way that they should have in the first place.  Even did a vid and put it on the board somewheres.

let's see......

So heres the run down.
First time around:
Stripped the tank, filled a quarter sized dent, painted it gloss black, along with the side covers, rear fender, tail light bracket, and chain guard.
Had the seat reapholstered.
Sucked the indicators in as close as i could.
Replaced the clutch cable and handle. (Incorrectly adjusted the clutch I might add)
Lazily touched up some of the chrome/aluminum.

Second time around:
Took the bike 95% apart (I did not tear down the block as it ran fine {at least it would if the carbs were decent})
Sand blasted and resprayed the frame, swingarm, etc.
Painted the majority of the chrome over with gloss black (including the front fender which is {as many of you may have noticed} not from a KZ400)
100% tore down and rebuilt the forks (thoroughly cleaned, replaced seals, oil, etc
Rebuilt the carbs (with as close to the correct kits as I could find)
New points, condensor & plugs
Bought new clutch friction disks (then proceeded to return them as they didnt fit...not even close)
Mic'd my old disks and found them to be in spec, returned incorrect friction disks
Swapped on the front disk brake, wheel, master cylinder etc
More aluminum/chrome touch up.
Fixed the charging system (utilizing my spare coils and voltage regulator...and a LOT of frustration)


And last but not least...the old girls replacement:
2009 Monster 696!

Here's What I've had and have..

2001 M750 Metallic. No digital photos of it, so I have pictures of pictures.  The tank was silver, with about 8 colors of metal flake in it.   It was pushed over in a parking lot and totaled.  I didn't have the heart at the time to attempt rebuilding it.
(http://home.comcast.net/~hotrod408dodge/M750metallic.jpg)
(http://home.comcast.net/~hotrod408dodge/M750tank.jpg)

Then it was onto a 2005 749 Dark which Tried really hard to get me killed on the Sandia Crest backroad here in Albuquerque.  It was 12,000 miles of joy. Got me into track riding!

(http://www.ducati.ms/gallery/files/1/5/0/4/3/eventpictures_1844970_small.jpg)

Now I'm riding around on a 2006 749s.  Its mostly stock because I'm seriously underfunded for any of the fun goodies that make a Ducati sing.

Side panels removed, slipper, 2 into 1, and assorted bits. Plan on powdercoating the subframe and a few other parts black next time it's in for service.
(http://i813.photobucket.com/albums/zz56/hbliam/IMG_0683.jpg?t=1266711846)

No bueno on the lighting but if you look closely in the next pic you can see the ca-cycleworks HM69 tank. Good for about 260-280 miles for me around town.

Swapped out the stock bars, mirrors, etc. Blacked out bar with handguards and a Scott's underbar damper. The guards have a built in, smoked lens, signal.

OK. I finally bought a "Ducati" helmet. I never would have but at 50% of dealer cost brand new I had to have it for my Hyper riding.

Love that Hyper.  When they first came out I thought they were so ugly, but now I find myself loving the look.  Its on the short list for my next bike.

I finally snapped a few pics of my Monster this weekend, here's a link to a bunch of shots:

Thanks Travman.

I like the classic/cafe look which is one reasons I went with the Marving megaphones.  I'm thinking about adding clipons next.  I'd love to add wire wheels, but can't justify the price right now.

I just got the Marvings at the end of last season.  I don't have any sound clips.  I have the baffles in, and they are just a little louder and deeper than stock.  I'll try it with baffles out in the spring, or perhaps modding the baffles.  I don't want it too loud because I commute on the bike and don't want to bug neighbors early in the morning.

msh, gr8 looking bike....clean and simple to the eyes...

Thanks for the positive feedback. It's getting there... slowly becoming the bike I want it to be. Now if I could only muster up some photographic talent, vs. my crappy cell phone pic. Oh, well. Somday.

Just did the SpeedyMoto timing belt "covers". God I love them! Now the eye doesn't focus on the fugly grey plastic pieces anymore. Seems to show off the K&N's more? Maybe just my imagination.

(http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b330/msh441/IMAG0052.jpg)

Now I gotta find a gold or bronze anodized oil cap. The red just won't do. My vision is looking as spartan as possible around the engine... natural aluminum, a few black & gold touches.The wheels as the only red parts on the bike.

I've got the matching SpeedyMoto sprocket cover, too. Gonna throw it on when I do the gold anodized drilled Vortex 14t sprocket & DID ERV3 gold chain this Sunday.

Should make the left side ready for prime time!

msh, with your pods, pipes and Power Commander, did you dyno tune? How much was it? I'm looking at that right now...


I haven't done this bike... but my local dealer, Skagit Powersports (Washington state), does at least one dyno day each year.  Usually on, or around their open house day in spring.  I might do it then.  Until then, I'm going to dive into the Power Commander programming guide.  It's ideling really low right now and I must look like a tool blipping the thottle at every light, trying to keep it alive (OK, yes... I do like how it sounds, too  [evil]).

From what I remember, it's usually right around $100 for a dyno run (2 or 3, actually) and a little more if you want to tune with the PC at the same time.  I'll probably give it a shot.

Just added the 14T Vortes front sprocket and DID ERV3 chain.  What a difference!  So fun.

Pouring through the paperwork dad kept, I discovered it's not a "full" Feracci system (with headers)  :'(.

BUT it turns out they aren't stainless steel... they're Titanium slip ons!  [thumbsup]

No, I am planning coating the exhaust with high-temp ceramic coating, but that is just high temp silver paint.  I put it on last May or June and it is still looking pretty good.  I've done a few minor touch ups.  I'm surprised it has lasted this long.

I jacked up my rear also, and lowered the front as well.

The thing turns in sooo much quicker now with more weight over the front end!   [thumbsup]


I had to take it easy the first coupla hours with the new setup. As I would initiate the turn like normal,  Rosie would turn so quick, I would have to straighten up so I wouldn't run off the INSIDE of the corner, then turn in again. :o  Now I realize I can brake a bit later, and carry a bit more speed through the turn.   [moto]

I guess the short answer would be that it handles much better...    [bacon]


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: Travman on April 17, 2010, 05:28:25 PM
Pretty much what Bacon Junkie said.  It does turn in quickly.  The lighter wheels have contributed a little more to that too.  I have more weight over the front end with the way it is set up so to me it feels better with more feedback.  I've got a Penske rear shock with remote shock in the rear and Ohlins internals for the forks done by Marc Sutton's Duc Shop.  Bumps in the road don't upset the bike much at all which is gives me a lot of confidence when diving into a corner that may not be perfectly smooth.  Brake dive is minimized compared to other Monsters I've ridden.

Just asked since I'm setting mine up and is not so 'radical' in the front rake. I've got a quicker turn in, but, still looking for the adjustable height rod to finish up the rear and set sag correctly.

Lucky for me, my '99 has the old style linkage in the rear.  All that was necessary for me to raise the ride height was to back out the rose joints on each side about 3 threads.  1/4 inch there translated into almost an inch more height.   [thumbsup]

Damn... now I want to go out and ride!  Laundry and chores can wait 'til later...   [moto]

An updated pic after some progress:

(http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b330/msh441/IMAG0102.jpg)

Still a crappy cell phone pic, but you can see a couple new changes:

-SpeedyMoto pully covers
-billet axel plates from Desmo Times
-lowered front headlight and fly screen 2 1/2 inches (I cut/rewelded and powdercoated the U-shaped bracket & mounted gauges below the triple tree.  Looks really cool from every angle. Kept the sensor bar and everything behind the light looks factory stock & very clean)
-gold anodized oil fill cap
-gold anodized frame plugs
-rerouted wiring (no zip ties on the frame anymore)

What you can't see in that pic:

-DID ERV3 gold chain
-Vortex 14T front sprocket (very, VERY fun!)
-matching SpeedyMoto front sprocket cover
-gold anodized alternator cover
-gold anodized tail plugs

Still on the to-do list:
-round off the rear section of the front fender
-New rear tire
-Carbon fiber headlight bucket on the way

Wish list:
-adjustable front forks?

There's a lot of beautiful bikes on here.  Finally getting around to posting mine here too.
Going to download quite a few of these for computer screensaver.   [thumbsup]

Here's me and my 2007 S2R800 on the 2010 First Annual Bubba Memorial Run (my first ever large group ride)

Looks really good man!  Dig those bevel belt covers.   [thumbsup]

Thanks man.  Like the KTM.  I've looked at the SuperDuke a couple of times and may get one myself.

Here's another pic at the first stop on the run (old town of Georgetown in the hills East of Sacramento).  Asked my buddies girlfriend and friends to pose next to it.  The wife was not amused when she saw the picture (she didn't go) and told me that I better not do that again.  :P

It's come quite a long way since I got it last August.  I do not think it will change drastically visually, though I would like to try a different bellypan at some point.  I also have plans to fabricate a cleaner headlight bracket when I'm not so busy on the weekends.

Ceramic coated Ex Box fortunately came with it courtesy of the original owner.  Since I got it, the following changes have been made:  new Rizoma handlebars, later installed Woodcraft clipons, lowered gauges (thanks TAftanomos), installed dual headlight, took off dual headlight for KTM headlight, installed CRG levers, put on Rizoma grips and later reverted back to stock grips, billeted reservoir caps, Motodynamics taillight, CRG LS mirrors / espresso cup "beer tray" (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=38142.0), S4 forks installed with hard anodized gold tubes and Racetech springs and new shock absorber spring (thanks Speeddog), black 80's tank lettering, and no doubt there's more to come.

Actually it's my parents place and it is on a golf course. It's easier to keep my bikes over there, since I'm never home and half of the garage is set up to work on the bikes.

I don't think you'd be able to pry that bike away from my dad, the desmo and the red S4R are his main rides. The 1036CS and 1036 Foggy are mine, we split time on the 1098S.

Funny, that's what happened when I got my first tattoo at 16, my Dad liked it and got the same thing a month later.  I held off on getting a bike for awhile cause I thought my mom would kill me, now she wants to go for rides and is getting an MSF course for my Dad for father's day.

Thank you so much everyone! But I actually bought this bike from a friend. He's responsible for all mods on her. I don't want to take credit from someone else's work. And all the installations are done by a local duc shop. He actually gave me an extra set of hoses so I will probably install them myself since these are fading out already. When I called the local shop for service they actually have a name for her, the "bling bike". Kinda cool.

I hope you will never drop the bike (of course), because then you will realize that those things will support nada... NorDog had the right solution, they are fancy Rizoma thingies (totally useless).

Thanks Betty. Let me re-phrase, its support for a TIP OVER (maybe). You guys are right, nothing can support anything on a  high or even a low speed fall.


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: junior varsity on May 21, 2010, 04:48:36 AM
Tip over may generate higher forces than a low side because of the free fall from vertical position, compared to low side where bike is already leaned over...

I thought that looked familiar.

You should show another angle to show off the stripe.

gOoIe B,

How did you do those camshaft covers?  I've been thinking of pulling mine off and polishing them to match my belt covers.  Is it fairly easy to remove and replace those?

Thanks in advance.

gOoIe B,

How did you do those camshaft covers?  I've been thinking of pulling mine off and polishing them to match my belt covers.  Is it fairly easy to remove and replace those?

Thanks in advance.

each cover is held on with 4 cap head hex bolts, remove them and wiggle and twist the covers out of the head by hand.  If you're just gonna do a polish job on them, tape shut the opening on the inside where the cam bearing is to keep crud out.  I did powdercoating on all my parts, which required removal of the bearings.  Let me tell you, they're in there tight.  To remove the bearings from the cam covers (just in case you ever need to), heat the cover with a propane torch (not too close, don't burn it!), put on an oven mitt, pick up the cover and slap it down onto a hard flat surface, then the bearing pops right out.

Cam cover removal is easy, just make sure you re-torque your fasteners to spec on reassembly.

I appreciate your opinion.  I'm still undecided as to whether I should get the front wheel powdered red, or if I should stick a red stripe on the front wheel and a black stripe on the rear wheel.  If I was worth a damn at graphic arts I could decide much more easily.

and like I mentioned earlier... she isn't done yet.  I've already made some changes since these pics were snapped.   ;)

IMO I like the idea of a black wheel stripe on the rear, but leaving the front all black.

IMO I like the idea of a black wheel stripe on the rear, but leaving the front all black.

The original idea was to generally make the front and top of the bike black, and the bottom and rear of the bike red.  The powdercoating has achieved much of that, but after putting it all together and staring at it for countless hours, I've got so many other ideas to further the progress.  I will probably end up replacing my fren tubo front brake lines with some black ones once I convert to SM bars or clip-ons, for instance...


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF

After about a year of lurking and researching this site (thanks everyone!), I finally have enough tweaks to my 08 S2R1K to post here and call it my bike!  More to come of course...
Mods are mostly superficial stuff (still under warranty and paranoid) emissions canister removed, reflective wheel stripes, removed rear license plate/mud guard, added new bracket and led bolts on plate, oxford heated grips, ebay handlebar risers, custom (aka homemade) frame plugs, D2Moto frame sliders, Integrated tail light, cut down & painted rear fender/rear signals removed (idea “borrowed” from Stopintime's awesome Bike of the Moment pics), GSG belly pan from streetfighters inc (I like it, but I wouldn’t do it again – PITA & $$$), generic e-bay steering damper experiment (it works!), mounted below the bottom triple, and a streetfighter clutch cover.

This is such a great thread. [thumbsup]

Here's my 2007 ST3s ABS after the latest round of mods. Almost all of the changes I've made to the bike have been to make it a more capable tourer for my gf and me. It's a shame that Ducati canned the ST line as they are exceptional all-round bikes. This pic was taken just after pulling into the driveway after riding the Cabot Trail last weekend.

(http://i355.photobucket.com/albums/r462/MarkSidler/2007%20ST3s%20ABS/Tourer4.jpg?t=1279284082)

Earlier this season I came very close to trading it against a new MTS1200s. My dealer and I couldn't come to an agreement so I kept the ST. Since then I've put a few thousand kms more on the bike and I'm not at all unhappy that things turned out as they did.

Added a Sargent seat to the 1098 R and does it ever make all the difference in riding comfort.

Even allows me to sit back in a more upright position which helps a guy who is 6'4 1/2" tall w, a 35 " inseam.

I actually think the headlight is pretty nice looking.  First thought when seeing it is, how do i put one on my 696?  closer to the forks or not, thats one sharp looking bike  [moto]

The headlight would like great if it could be slammed up next to the forks like the stock 696 headlight.  Other than needing to probably fabricate new mounting brackets is there anything that would prevent the headlight from being that close to the forks.

should be easy to move back. i can take the brackets, drill the new holes, chop the front off, round it, paint it.

there is really nothing but wires behind the light.

After two and half years of having driven a 695, I bought myself a 1100S. I wasn't really planning on buying another bike because the 695 rode really well but the dealer gave me a high resale value and a nice discount on the new one. And yes, that's even better. This torque is ... Wow! Anyway, here are some pics :

They might help the look (questionable) but they sure don't help the HP.

Without dyno results on the newer well baffled Boomtubes, I think the HP conclusion is questionable.  I have not taken mine in for a dyno run, but in terms of feel, the bike is much improved.  The low end, 3k-4k is a lot smoother.  Before getting the exhaust I was pretty much sold on some sort of ECU solution for the low end jitter, but after riding the bike around for the past few weeks, I no longer see a need.  I have also not noticed any low end power loss which is a typical sign of a lack of back pressure.  

Of course, none of this has anything to do with peak HP.  I really cannot speak to whether there was an improvement there, but given my other observations, I would be surprised if it was hurt.  Besides, I am much more interested in a more usable power curve that increasing peak HP a couple percent.  

And did I mention I think they look cool?  ;D

The wind shield is a Puig.  It comes just tinted, but when I installed it I noticed that it reflected the light from the headlight right into my eyes.  I guess the slightly tilted headlight of the new monsters has a bit of light reflected pretty much straight up.  So I ended up lining the inside of the screen with black Plasti Dip.  The opaque, non-glossy surface on the underside of the screen cuts the reflected light quite a bit.  It now looks opaque and still glossy when you look at the top.

And now that I've finally gone through the trouble of getting a photobucket account and learning to post pics, a couple more for good measure.

A pic that gives some more perspective on the immensity of the bucket.

and a better shot of the monster. I must have had sunstroke or something, because I clearly thought that I was James Dean.

The exhaust is custom.  I got the megaphones from a website called feked.com, a British site that deals in antique mc parts and manufactures a few vintage looking parts.  I'd like to ceramic coat them matte black, but lack the $.

I had the header pipes custom made.  Indy Ducati hooked me up with a place called CarFab that fabricates exhausts for race cars etc.  One of the advantages to living in the so called "racing capital of the world" is all the little shops that specialize in this kind of stuff  ;)  I basically wanted to get rid of the udder and do something unique, I got the idea from the zard system for a Paul Smart Sport 1000.

The end result is a bike that is a real head-turner, a few pounds lighter, extra hp, and for sure the loudest thing in indy until MotoGP comes to town again!

H Competition Rodan Box Underseat exhaust, this system replaces the midpipe and gets ride of the exhaust flapper. 

ryanracer on this forum makes them.

Here is a link to a thread in the mods section with a sound clip:
    http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=41219.0 (http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=41219.0)

Here is a link to the manufacturers website:

When it rains, I ride my Buell so I do not have any first hand experience with water accumulation when it rains although I would imagine the water would evaporate.

Turnagain Arm is a Fjord located just outside of Anchorage.  It is about 60 miles long and offers some great scenery and riding.  Whenever there is a nice day, Alaskan riders fire up their bikes and head down the Arm.  I have many fond memories of it.

When I was in collage at UT/Austin in the early 70s it showed on campus damn near every week for a buck. My runnin' buddies and I would go for some tex-mex and pitchers of beer for the right attitude adjustment and off we'd go for the show. It was like a Rocky Horror showing.

AKmnstr.....believe it or not, it's not Turnagain Arm - it just looks like it.  I took this shot at ummm about mile 11.5 or so of Knik Goose Bay road, looking across the Knik Arm to the mountains.  It looks really similar, though :)

There is definitely too much snow for riding, unless you stud up dirt bike tires - we've got about 8 inches or so thanks to a fresh snow on Friday.

I noticed that this doesn't say "Monsters of the DMF"  ;D

This is the bike that the original Monster is based on, and one that always excites me when I ride it or even look at it:

Very nice. The 600/620's have the "advantage" of not having an oil cooler to clutter up the visual impact. I like what you've done. The gauge trim ring is a nice, and practical, touch.  [clap] [clap] [clap]

My only "complaint," such as it is, is the rear shock spring color. The yellow just doesn't belong. Next step, maybe?

I was thinking about that.

Perhaps vinyl or anodize the fork stantions black.

But, if you notice the silver-color filler cap, then you notice the accents.

Keep the levers silver, along with the filler cap. Maybe get the foot controls blacked out as well.

Leave some silver fasteners.

The black is blacker when there's contrast to work against.

The fender chop was super easy, if you have a Dremel.

I think it might have taken me a total of an hour and a half. That includes cutting, sanding, and painting!  [thumbsup]

(http://inlinethumb28.webshots.com/45019/2154189510103537997S600x600Q85.jpg)

848 forks and 4-pad radial brembos with 999 10-spoke Marchesinis, and FrenTubo brake lines.

(http://inlinethumb42.webshots.com/47145/2024403730103537997S600x600Q85.jpg)

Rizoma pressure plate with speedymoto caps, and FrenTubo oil lines.

(http://inlinethumb23.webshots.com/46870/2452582170103537997S600x600Q85.jpg)

999 rear wheel and brake setup. Also changed out the chain and sprockets so that I get to use more than just 1st through 3rd gear. I can now use 5th (kinda) legally!

(http://inlinethumb33.webshots.com/17760/2878702630103537997S600x600Q85.jpg)

...SC...

You can get brake lines with banjo fittings in any color - anodized aluminum, titanium, and stainless steel - likewise the braided lines can be covered in a protective sleeve that can be any color as well.

but... this fitting angle doesn't look correct:

1098 forks and 4-pad radial brembos with 999 10-spoke Marchesinis, and FrenTubo brake lines.
(http://inlinethumb42.webshots.com/47145/2024403730103537997S600x600Q85.jpg)

The line shouldn't bend like that, the fitting itself should have somewhere between a 60-75-90 degree bend to change the line's direction correctly for the banjo bolt placement/positioning on the caliper.  On the 848-M1100, etc, which use a similar caliper, the bends are 90's, but the 75's would work well too.   It looks like those FrenTubo lines were for a different caliper, where the banjo bolt location was quite different.

With it bowed-out like that, and then having to make a bend, you end up with all that extra line. This amount of extra brake line is concerning to me because it could snag on any number of things, including the bike itself:

Good eye there! Looks like those lines for the front & rear calipers were on another bike previously and adapted over to this bike. Yep, you're right the angles are not proper.  Getting the proper angles and lengths can be a pregnant dog when doing lines. Tedious, a tad expensive if you have to do them over a few times but oh so important.


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: junior varsity on April 21, 2011, 08:58:03 AM
Agreed. I use bendable wire to model the exact path of what I want, go through the fittings diagrams on the website, and then call Spiegler to place the order so I can be as "exact" as possible - nothing lost in communication via poor word choice when I type it in, etc.

Hahaha. I half agreed with you when I saw it first come out too. But the other half saw the perfect lines. Only problem was they used wrong parts to accentuate those lines. Thanks for the compliment. Now that I got the visuals down, it's time to think about performance :)

Nicely setup, but those are 848 forks.


RCA, network, or other cabling makes it easy to get the length down you need.  I'd suggest using a little line retainer off a SBK if you can find one.  It will help collect the extra hose while allowing for fork movement.

I believe you are correct, sir, but there having passed 2 years and some change since I won them in an eBay auction, the details are a bit hazy. I'll edit my previous post for accuracy.

I'm not particularly worried about it.

As you can probably tell (and other have so graciously pointed out), the lines were ordered blind for a Sport 1000 without regard to the proper fitting angles. At full fork extension (with the bike on an under-triple front stand) there's still plenty of slack. While it's hard to see in the photo, the lines/fittings are angled out slightly so that as the forks compress, the lines bow out away from, well, everything.

Were I to do it again, I'd mock everything up before phoning in an order. That's kind of hard to do when you're on a giant boat off the coast of Pakistan while your bike is in a storage unit outside of Charleston, SC.

They're loud.

Yes, they are. I have "medium" baffles and it's still obnoxious. I take extra time to make sure my ear plugs are in and seated well.

Definitely 848 forks - 1098/1198 forks have DLC coated sliders.

Correct brake lines would cost a small fraction of the net expenditure for the front end - maybe $150-200 on the high end from Spiegler.  Much less than repairing what happens if one of the bowed out lines snags something (like another bike) while doing the ungainly parking-lot speed maneuvers. Something to consider.

Thank you. The stock horns fit the image, but the output is a polite little "meep," which is entirely inadequate.

90% of the times that I've used my horn, it was to tell someone in a cage that I didn't appreciate them doing something reckless or irresponsible or grossly inconsiderate behind the wheel. I'm pretty sure my stock horns weren't even audible over their stereo. These make the beast with two backsers, however, get the job done. I am willing to put up with a pair of giant red horns on the front of my bike for that added safety/comfort feature.

can you post some pics of the tail lights in action?

I'll make an attempt to get video of the tail light in action some time this weekend.

Take it from the hearing impaired, wear your ear plugs! Even without the loud exhaust the constant droaning wind noise at highway speed will get to your hearing over time. Even with a high buck, zoot capri helmet. With my problems I wear foam plugs AND electronic muffs when I shoot outdoors. Gotta save what is left.

It was dropped and repainted the gas tank, shitty job though. But I will be repainting as soon as I get some cash. I'm thinking white.

Tail Chop and mirrors coming soon, I'm thinking "Reverse Retro" Rizoma Bar End Mirror. But I don't know if I want integrated tail light or actual turning signals in the back. I will be changing the once in the front.


Any ideas on which ones I should consider?

By the way on the PJ site it says "To determine if you have non-tapered bar ends, see image below:" Any one knows, help?

I'm guessing that SxS = "side by side" exhaust cans (vs the older "shotgun" style").

SSS = Single-Sided Swingarm.

DSS = Dual-Sided Swingarm.

And yeah, nicely done.  [beer]

Tack och hoppas att du hade en fin nationaldag igår!
As Dave said there are no gold stripe on the rear wheel but maybe if I decide to stay with the 3-spoke wheels. I got new rims in the garage (Monster S4) that will be painted either gold or "titanium grey" (same as the rearsets).
I may black out the bike some more (headlight rim etc.) but I don´t think I´ll add more gold as it´s too hard to match aftermarket accessories to the color on the tank/tail.
Nice bike  [thumbsup]

It was a big decision to powder the wheels black but that's the way I want to take the bike. There's probably a few more things I could do

- stealth the number plate
- I have rear sets but I also have a girlfrind !!!! she gets pissed when she can't go pillion!!
- relocate wiring
- open up the belt covers with some design, haven't really concluded how yet, may be mesh.
- re-cover the seat

I have the 848 forks in the box, 8.5 springs in box, spacers made for the discs, spacer made for the 696 axle to fit the 848 forks.  Was about to pull the triple and bore to 53mm, wife says after last ride, "It is perfect, don't touch anything!".  But, Honey, you are gonna love these new forks.  LOL.

Thanks!

The stock Termi cans are SO long. This looks way better and is louder... Can't go wrong.

Thanks me too!  I got an all red 696 last spring with lots of bolt ons for a good deal, then a few months later they debuted the 796, I instantly fell in love with that color scheme on it.  Due to an interesting series of events involving being cut off and found at fault, I was able to trade up to the bike I had my eye on!!

I finally got the new rims (see page 134) painted and fitted and so far I´m happy with the result. I also replaced the stock handlebar with a Suburban Machinery M3. The combination of more stability mid-corner (rims) and more weight on the front wheel (handlebar) feels great!!

I do like the way they look but my main interest is having something solid to hook my bungee net onto when I carry my extra helmet or other stuff.  Now, does anyone know if they will interefere with the ducati performance tail bag? I know the lower portion sticks a little low on the seat and im wondering if it will hit the brackets...

also, you might want to know that they only fit on 796's and 2011 686's and the 1100evo.  if your monster isnt one of those it wont work

I believe the tail bag attaches to the seat cowling screws. The grab handles attach between the mounts for the stock cans and the frame, as well as a couple other screw holes under the seat frame.

You are correct, the bag uses the same screws as the cowling.  however the semi-rigid material that the bag sides are made of extend below the bottom of the seat, my concern is that they will hit the handles where they attach below the seat.  I have a set on the way so ill keep you all posted as to how the combo works!


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: Raux on July 23, 2011, 12:44:27 AM
i don't think it will be an issue. they mount under the frame go out a bit and then sweep up. But i personally haven't seen how far the bag goes below the seat.

Duc Buz:  Fantastic job on your 620. I really enjoy seeing a well modded bike done on the cheap with little or no aftermarket mods. I like many of the aftermarket upgrades and farkles available for monsters, but I really appreciate when someone does a great job with what's already there.

I suppose it's my inner, cheap, scots backround, but free mods are my favourite type.

Thanks Pitbull.  Yep cheap or free is my life when it comes to motorcycles. Wife is not a fan and has all funds strictly accounted for.  But it is fun to do the mods, I feel crafty.  [thumbsup]

I think because Miguel Galluzi left the drawing on the design unfinished for the Monster owner to finish it to his own liking .... Remember just by having a Ducati, you're already appart from the crowd, haven't seen a bike that exudes such words as 'wao, niiiiice, cool, it's beautiful' to a bike that is as it came from the showroom, I got that when I got Gina and she was bone stock and Gina was the second least expensive model from bottom to top, a M620D 2rotor ...

So why we mod, because nature is that way !!!

Godspeed all with our bikes!

You're right about the wow factor of even a stock Duc. I have spent about $1,500 (and counting) on my S2R, and I am probably a mildly addicted mod-addict. I have often wondered, how much money could a person invest in modifying a Monster? $5,000? $10,000? The sky? 


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: DarkMonster620 on August 14, 2011, 06:25:25 AM
... The sky? 

That's it !!!

I'm around $2500.00 >>> Exhaust+open top filter, Renthal steering bar, Dobeck TFI controller, repainted to Rad-black, CF rear fender, ... billet oil filler and drain plugs, to come,  Speedy Moto steering clamp, black painted belt covers, ...painted headlight bezel, to be installed, G2 Throttle tamer, FrenTubo brake lines, 4pot calipers, M1000 masters, Givi Raptor screen, custom made adjustable height rod, Aluminuin DSS, seat cowl, Oberon levers, Oberon clutch slave  ... and maybe, many more to come !!! :o

Thank!  Yes. i justr realized this pic is a little old. It doesnt have the carbon fiber fender. Everything else is shown. The evotech fender elimintaor put the license plate on the same horizontal line as the akrapovics.

Got it. [thumbsup] I like those Akra slip ons. I have full Akra 4 into 1 set ups with carbon cans on my two GSXRs. Very nice pipes. Something different from the usual Yosh on Suzook look. Plus the price was right at the time.

I finally got the new rims (see page 134) painted and fitted and so far I´m happy with the result. I also replaced the stock handlebar with a Suburban Machinery M3. The combination of more stability mid-corner (rims) and more weight on the front wheel (handlebar) feels great!!

lol absolutely not.  After frame sliders, they will probably be next in line for upgrade.  Although as ugly as they are, they work very well.  I have been behind guys with itty bitty aftermarket signals and they were pretty much worthless.  Hopefully I can find a good compromise.

no, it doesn't really bother me.  i added some handlebar risers (that don't really raise it much at all), an open clutch cover, and a couple more carbon pieces, but that's about it.  it doesn't need much.

Met some great people:  Bacon Junkie, Duck Stew, Polpetta and SacDuc, duc750, Speedog, River, and many other local Monster riders.  Some epic rides with these folks too! Would not have enjoyed it or learned as much without the DMF.  Thanks for the memories!

There is no way to fit SRS in a Defender due to the strength of that chassis. So after 1997, no more NAS Defenders unless the GVWR was greater than 8,500 lbs. which is, or was, the DOT cut-off. The Brand Manager who had done the Wagon with me was in Gaydon by then as liason to BMW. He did come up with a 110 HCPU crew cab which with a 130 axle could meet the spec, but with that springing the rear suspension was essentially rigid unless you carried 1,000+ lbs in the bed. We gave up. Cruel irony, the 110 crew cab with normal 110 springs became hugely successful in Europe. Still is with hunters/shooters with dogs.

More than you wanted to know? I could go on and on and on...  ;) Mine was the first white wagon in the U.S. #021/500. J.P. Slavin also used to say, "Land Rovers are white". We have good taste... :) :) :)

Thanks guys  [thumbsup]

stopintime is correct, it's the stubby Termi with a Marving mid pipe. I just took the carbon sleeve off to see what it looked like at first and ended up liking it. It looks kinda Mad Max-ish!

It's still a little too dirty for me though, I wanna have someone break the welds and redo it a bit cleaner. Termi probably didn't care too much about aesthetics since it was supposed to be under a sleeve anyway. And I wanna have the tabs that hold the carbon sleeve removed, you can barely see them in the pic but they're on the top and bottom of the pipes right before the silencer.

Mainly because of safety the us motor vehicle people wanted land rover to fit air bags to the defender land rover said no it was an agricultural vehicle and at the time tractors didn't have air bags fitted so they were banned in the us your loss.

Have you thought about making, say, an aluminum sleeve for it?


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: The Bearded Duc on January 20, 2012, 09:23:30 PM
Have you thought about making, say, an aluminum sleeve for it?

I haven't, but the carbon sleeve that it came with is essentially the same idea. The problem is, in order to get to the pressure clamps (to remove the silencer in order to remove the tire) the sleeve has to be able to come off which means it has to be left open on the mid pipe end and it just doesn't 'flow' well aesthetically to me. The mid pipe just ends up going right in to the open end of the carbon slip on.

The sleeve on the stubby Termi was basically made to contour the udder which I wanted as far away from my bike as possible!  [laugh]

I like the look of the silencer without the sleeve but the welds are horrible since they were meant to be covered.


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: Buckethead on January 20, 2012, 09:42:14 PM
I was actually thinking about an aluminum sleeve the exact same size as the can that's on there now, essentially making it look like a REALLY chopped-down stock-ish muffler. You'd keep access to the pressure clamps, and save the trouble of cutting and re-welding.

And you mean to end the sleeve right before the pressure clamps? If I'm picturing what you are then no, I haven't thought of that until now. I kinda like it, maybe I can extend the sleeve a little in the other direction as well so the exhaust exit part isn't so long either. There's a place around the corner from my house that does sheet metal work too!! Maybe I can get them to give me some scrap aluminum for little or no money!   [thumbsup]

Thanks Buckethead!!  [thumbsup]


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: Buckethead on January 20, 2012, 10:07:00 PM
Or you could end the sleeve at the end of the can - like the old aluminum sleeve on the DSS Monster stock exhausts - just to cover the crappy welds and make it look uniform. 

Happy to help!


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: DarkMonster620 on January 21, 2012, 01:05:20 PM
just a thought ... leave a gap between the can and the sleeve for cooling ???

Haha..not quite. Credit goes to Adobe Lightroom not me. You'd be surprised what you can do in 5 minutes with that program. I'm still learning but I swear with enough practice, I could make a pile of crap look like a creamy chocolate milkshake.

..... sweet lookin ride, actually had my rear wheel powder coated white again because the booms/exhaust stained it a yellowish color.

Post by: EEL on May 22, 2012, 09:40:30 PM
I had that problem when I ran just the udder. It was a fueling issue. The bike runs rich and expels fuel out the exhaust. Unfortunately with under engine exhausts this stains the rear wheel.

I dyno'd my setup and tuned w/ a PCIII. Have never had a problem with it.

My problem is brake dust. white wheels show everything.

Thanks lads,

Buckethead much appreciated, will try adding the brackets next time..

Freeclimb... it is a JW Speaker product, LED Hi - Lo.... John from JWS was a great help... low beam is really great, and the visibility in traffic during the day seems improved, yet I don't have people flashing me that I am on high beam... High beam not as strong as I am hoping for so it is still a work in progress. Modified a S4RS mounting hoop to fit it all together.

Anchorism... the clip ons are woodcraft, 2.5 rise, I used a Desmo works low style top clamp and that left enough room to mount the clip ons above the triple.

thats the difference between cash and cc for mid... the premium was 4.89 with cc  [bang]

this is actually from the day I picked up that bike out in Long Island somewhere, not exactly sure where. Came out of the station from getting my snickers to find these guys had pulled up to make for a nice photo op.

What is Instagram?

Instagram is a fun and quirky way to share your life with friends through a series of pictures. Snap a photo with your mobile phone, then choose a filter to transform the image into a memory to keep around forever. We're building Instagram to allow you to experience moments in your friends' lives through pictures as they happen. We imagine a world more connected through photos.
Sounds like just taking pictures as people have done for decades, no?

Instagram also lets you apply all sorts of quirky photo filters to give the picture more of an artistic, post-processing flair without having to take it home to photoshop it.

Instagram does give you a different look to the pictures that sometimes can work really well versus just the standard photo.

All this is fine...

except it's just a tool to edit photos and doesn't deserve it's own thread.

Your right, that is what I meant. I love the Griso's lines, i have a soft spot for Guzzi's
If you like Guzzi's then you'd love this one.  

You're right.  I do need some pictures of the Griso taken in better light and with my better camera.  I looked and all of them are pretty crappy pics taken on overcast days.  This is the best I could find, still not great.  I've been too busy riding.   [Dolph]

I want one so bad.  Its the only way I can think of to go scuba diving AND motorcycling in the same day.  (Riding the monster in a wetsuit doesnt offer enough protection, and the tank is just too much weight up that high.)

Back in the day when I had my old M900 I had the Ohlins (SD154 I think) damper on the left side.

I never adjusted it.  I just got it where I liked it and left it. . .

Post by: dk1six on September 25, 2012, 11:09:12 AM
I'm gonna go ahead and clear up the confusion, I have it on the right side because I didn't want it on the left.  It's set at about 3/4 firm and that's where I leave it.

I might take it off!!

Thank you guys!  I've been contemplating the traditional headlight but I want to find one that sits in the forks nice and tight.

those are the coveted brake ducts from RoadRacing or Ducati Performance (I think both made them)

Sorry guys missed this...

Yes they are the 'road racing' carbon fiber race cooling ducts

I would like to eliminate completely, but not worth losing the fuel and oil temp lights. I saw a thread where they put the board/brain in the cluster in a sealed box beneath bike. Is there a single gauge option out there? (or any aftermarket replacement?). I just don't like the size of the cluster and how tall it is.

regarding the fuel and oil lights . . . you can follow the wires and hook up leds/button lights to the ones coming from those sensors to light up when low ..  .just an idea

... more dangerous than a monster ... twice the fun... and it moves dirt, logs, trailers and more; dont worry Im building a duc garage first; best dam small diesel engines ever built are by yanma; lots of low end torque when needed.

custom dual chains on the rear 12X16.4 4X4 with modied rear box scraper I had a friend weld on 2" reciver through the top of the scraper; and FEL; jyst got the front dual High low headleights running after 2 yrs; now to get the rear flashers to work and I'll be real happy; its old school; no syrcor in the clutch; so to get to 4 high you have to be at just the right rpm to shift without too much grinding; 1 low 0.25 MPH 4 high tops out a maybe 18 kms /hr

My only suggestion (if it were mine)
I would move license plate down further just behind the shock.....

Looks like a lot of fun to ride!!!

I'm working on it!

great minds think alike  [thumbsup]

Actually, my home furnishings are a mixture of Afghan, Belgian, English, German and Ugandan, all purchased at their origin.  And yes, I prefer parts bin bikes over bikes whose front ends look like they've been punched in the face.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Bought dinner last PM for a pal who was passing through Virginia. He was the Cagiva Eastern Regional Sales Manager and was and responsible for the first Monsters coming here. According to him, only those first ones were original. Those which followed were mostly parts bin.

He quite liked my 796 "Pantah" which comes from a wind tunnel, not cardboard boxes. Fact is, the face works. It would be cooler if it looked more like a 748, but it doesn't and probably can't. Form follows function in this case. I'd like a derived M796 ST personally...

So maybe preface your comments in future with IMHO? Do you even RIDE a Ducati anymore? 8) For "retro" I own a T-100.

No doubt a nice, eclectic jumble you have there. Mine's mostly period Sheraton and Chippendale yew and walnut respectively and mostly from Bath or Oxford.

It means that most of the parts, from the factory, on the "old" monsters aren't specific to that bike. For instance, the factory might take left over forks from a different year or model and fit them to the current offering. As long as it "fits".

Which is why they are monsters. Think Frankenstein's monster. In contrast the new Monsters are purpose built although I think they do share some parts with the 848.

That being said the new monsters are probably a better motorcycle overall.

Hey! Got my first duc, and street bike in general this year. Its a 94 m900 and ive Been working on it pretty much nonstop. It has become apparent the previous owner(s) didn't take care of her the way she deserved. I've fixed and upgraded what I can to this point but its gonna be a process. I've always loved ducatis and i couldnt believe it when I actually got to have one myself. I'm 26 and doing what I can to put the best stuff into her and do it correctly, so any help, advice, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Im also looking for lots of parts, mainly aftermarket but some stock like a fuel sensor. So anything you guys got Laying around you want to part with let me know! Thanks! And here's what she looked like when I got her,  after a few upgrades, and the new problem I just came across and am dealing with... Carbide is my best friend right now haha!

Thanks! Yeah I had those powder coated recently. Thankfully there's only like two shades of Candy orange powder coat so it was easy to match. Next I'm doing the swing arm and the fork tubes black. The triples orange and I just got a seat cowl and front fairing I'm gonna match to the tank. I've been looking for a dash with a tach too...

Yeah man you are onto something.  I was surfing on a KTM forum to check out headlight mods, and sure enough someone figured out how to drop a projector into this headlight.  It is deeper than the newer pancake style headlight on the Monster.

I have a thread in the Mods & Accessories section if you want to see more pictures.

Edit got some better pics, view the album for more. I removed the Boom Tubes because the exhaust gas stains the white wheels. I've had the rear powder coated after running around for a couple years with an off white wheel and it kept getting worse. Went with full system to quite the bike down some and redirect the exhaust.

Awesome pictures, would love to make some mods shown here myself, but sadly i live in germany and there are some very strict regulations.
But nonetheless i finally finished my bike and wanted to share. Completely streetlegal, only needs a new paintjob at some time as it currently is plastidipped (was white, wanted to see how it looks in flat black).

Awesome pictures, would love to make some mods shown here myself, but sadly i live in germany and there are some very strict regulations.
But nonetheless i finally finished my bike and wanted to share. Completely streetlegal, only needs a new paintjob at some time as it currently is plastidipped (was white, wanted to see how it looks in flat black).

How my M750 looked when I bought it:

(http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g234/247prophet/og4_zpsb79257af.jpg~original)

(http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g234/247prophet/og1_zps612fc8af.jpg~original)

First thing I did was chop the tail and remove the turn signals, rear hugger, and tank pad and added a Roadracing full exhaust. Then I backed into it in my driveway like a jackazzand was inspired to transform it completely rather than just be content fixing the dented tank. So it got a coat of SEM "Hot Rod" black, and from there:

- A 900 Supersport engine swap. The engine was sourced from eBay for $250 plus shipping and looked like this when I got it:

(http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g234/247prophet/900ss2_zpsc627ee98.jpg~original)

(http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g234/247prophet/900ss1_zps333e053c.jpg~original)

After a valve job, complete top end rebuild, clean up and paint she looked like this:

(http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g234/247prophet/engine1_zps8c880f3f.jpg~original)

(http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g234/247prophet/engine3_zpsc057a6e8.jpg~original)

(http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g234/247prophet/engine4_zpsb840331a.jpg~original)

The final rebuild also included:

- Keihin FCR's
- Pod filters
- IMA upper and lower triples
- Bitubo XZE 2 way adjustable monoshock in red
- Rizoma rearsets
- LSL carbon fibre bars
- Ducabike slipper clutch in red
- CTMOTO clutch cover
- Sargent seat
- Ducabike slave cylinder
- Ducabike gas cap
- LED 3 eye headlight
- Oberon billet turn signals
- Ducati Performance shorty aluminum front fender
- Shorty billet adjustable levers
- A bunch of other billet bling I'm forgetting about

And now looks like this:

Post by: Rudemouthsky on July 22, 2013, 09:42:12 AM

  Thanks Steve! I know it becomes a joke to say, but I'm certain this bike is *really* done now. Well, maybe some front suspension work aside. I walk around it and I can't think of one thing it needs...everything that can be replaced with billet has been replaced with billet...the rear suspension has been addressed...the dog-ish-ness of the 750 motor has been taken care of by the 900ss..now it's time to put that $$ in savings for my next bike...which will either be an S4r such as yours or a new school M1100 (maybe the 2010 vintage with dry clutch). Or maybe it won't even be a Monster, I'm liking the 848 Streetfighter more and more.


Title: Re: the OFFICIAL Bikes of the DMF
Post by: Steve.In.Atlanta on July 22, 2013, 09:51:40 AM
As much as I love the S4R, that's such a big bike for around town commuting. I wouldn't mind to score another M900 to make into a commuting/motard-ish beast. I would love to lift the suspension a bit, Dunlop D616 tires and a 47/48 chainring so I have to work to keep the front tire down. Oh, and riser bars with a lot of blap, blap, blap

   I'm pretty sure mine is the ultimate street bike (for me) at this point. This 900 mill loves the low RPM range. I feel like I'm shaking the pavement rumbling around Cleveland on it.

Nice Bandit, what did the spoked front wheel come off of? I am working on a front end swap on my GF's CB550 & she wants to keep a spoked wheel.  It is a 17" correct?

Yup - they're 17", 5.5" rear and 3.5" front.  They're Alpinas made for a Sport Classic.   [Dolph]  The Sport Classic is about your only choice for 5.5/3.5 17" laced wheels.

It's a 749 fender. From what I can tell, they switched mounting points for a couple years and then went back, so not a lot of off the shelf options. Now go put yours together so I don't have to play with my imagination.

That bandit is pretty nice, any other angles?

Washed my bike today.  Was feeling proud so I decided to post a pic.

Yeah those chicken wings ain't cool. What kind ya going with? If I didn't ride 2 up a lot I would've gotten the Ducabike. Reeeallly wish I'd snagged the last S&P set from Motowheels. ..

I have cyclecat that I bought used from someone on the board.  They need some hardware replaced, but overall are fine and functional.  Thought I'd get them anondized or powder coated black, and then use a gold washer (where the original has a red washer).

Thing is I just starting riding two-up bc my current gf has been interested in it.  cyclecat's are strictly 1-up, so i may not want to go that route.  Other option is rizomas, which have a passenger set add-on, though I hear they are getting hard to come by.  of course, that would require $700+ (new) on top of the $250 I spent on the cyclecats.  Ugh, why are the best mods so expensive?!  >:(

What color are those SpeedyMoto Belt Covers? They look like Purple and Gold in that pic. I really hope that's not the Billet Alluminum black fading to purple cause I was thinking bout getting those in black but for what they cost I want em to stay black. (at least till I pay off the loan to buy them).  ;)
