I've done the last thing to complete my move from Tennessee to Dallas, TX: Bringing the Motorcycle to its new home. It got a new clutch cover welcome present, and will soon enough visit the dealership for a once-over and oil change. I'm desperately needing new tires as well, but that must wait till the wallet recovers from moving. Here's pics of the bike in its current form.  [thumbsup]

Now, if only this weather will clear up.

Nice looking bike.  I really like the "Ducati" on the tank (and on the fender).

After 7 years of Monsters, I'm sadly bikeless right now.

Like the belly pan, though I'm not usually a fan of those. Who makes it?

That is the Red Racing piece, which I mailed to Brad Diez @ Speedzone Paint & Bodyworks to paint to match the Tank and Fender he did for me. The paint job was my idea and within the month of getting the bike put back together, lo and behold, Ducati unveils the SportClassic lineup, complete with my paint job. At least it shows my idea wasn't too oddball.

The badge on the seat cowl is from one of the single cylinder bevel drive Duc's, I believe it was the seat badge. I got mine from BevelHeaven.

The cam belt pulleys are VeeTwo, and the Penske Reservoir connects to a Penske 8983, from Traxxion Dynamics, but you can't really see the shock, since it is covered by a shock-sock I put on when I decided to remove the rear-hugger. The best modification I have ever made can't be see, since it is under the tank: DynaCoils. It'd be my first change if I ever bought another older duc.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

beautiful.

have you looked into rerunning the oil cooler line to show off those covers better?

junior varsity

I have, I think that's a great idea too - I'd like to upgrade the oil lines and reroute them around the other side of the bike. Maybe I'll get some spare pennies to do that in the near future, but "have-to's" are cropping up soon, like new tires.

Congrats on finishing the move and nice looking bike.

That is just how a Monster should look  [thumbsup]
Beauty on every little detail.
The paint job , the timing belt cover, oil cooler cover, clutch,  fluid containers...all of it  [bow_down]
And the pipes are just plain sexy...
Respect !

(Even 300 bucks on that timing belt cover is INSANE I need to have one too.... now  [beer] )
