OK, since my last mod post I’ve continued my binge:
1)  painted rear caliper bracket black
2)  black vinyl sticker on eccentric hub (TapeWorks) Roll Eyes
3)  painted inside of fairing black
4)  Spiegler brake clutch lines (spieglerusa.com; smoke lines with gold fittings, except black fitting at clutch slave)
5)  re-routed brake and clutch lines behind gauge cluster
6)  re-routed front brake line (single line from MC to right caliper and line from right to left caliper)
7)  lowered gauges and headlight
Cool  homemade Al dash (better version in the works)
9)  new side-outlet Rizoma reservoirs (pjsparts.com; old ones for sale)
10)  powder-coated kickstand satin black
11)  red rimstripes (TapeWorks; if ya don’t like ‘em, blame duc996 Wink )
12)  frame end “skull” stickers (TapeWorks) Roll Eyes
13)  Ducati “D” sticker on dash (TapeWorks; yeah, I know it’s not centered)
14)  Tygon/re-routed tank breather hose
15)  re-routed wiring/connectors on right side

Dave i thought about using one brake line down to the right caliper and then a short line across the front fender to the left caliper so as to get rid of the T piece that lurks behind the head light which i find gets in the way when you install rizoma bars. Did you had any problems when you where bleeding the brakes  Huh?

I use the oft-maligned Mity-Vac, so instead of 3 minutes to bleed the brakes, it took 4.   Wink

As far as the BOMB feature goes:  ANY bike owned by ANY passionate DMF'er is fair-game.

Write up a reasonably descriptive narrative about you and the bike and what you have done to it (might want to break that into chapters! LOL) and send it to darylbowden or squeak.

That's it.

And BTW...that bike is very, very nicely modded and super clean and drool-worthy and just plain sick and ... and ... and...   waytogo waytogo  [moto]
