it is an interesting use of a SuperSport Ducati...

I like it ;D The riding position is reminiscent of a drag bike or a salt flats runner. It's a chopper thing for sure. That riding style is one I'd rather have than ape hangers. Give me drag bars any day for a chopper.  I wouldn't necessarily do that to a Ducati, but to each his own.

I wish there were better pictures of this.  Sounds interesting.

I hate to say this...

I actually like it. The blacked out theme kicks ass.

Well, the forward controls need to be replaced with mid controls. I hate that feet forward crap.

Needs a sissy bar......one aggressive blip of the throttle and you will never have to worry about prostate cancer.......an 80hp unicycle would be easier to ride......that position is horrible!

the tank is an original 900SS tank, he just has the "seat" right on the frame which lowers the rider's butt by about 3 inches (and forward some too)

it could be done better.  the seat should be up a bit and the controls rear.

putting the controls rear with that seat would cramp up your legs in a minute.

i would not buy this bike for more than a grand though -- NO TITLE??  on a 1995 bike??  you are make the beast with two backsed out of luck if it is stolen,and getting a title on a later model bike will be very $$$
