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.

I think a set of titanium Termis would not go amiss also..

funny you should say that. almost pulled the trigger on some 1098R Akropovic Ti cans.

Looks great Raux! Love the subframe, the red lettered calipers, the paint scheme, the clip-ons, headlight looks awesome, is that the one Rad Duc uses?

Very nice. I think you might be missing something though... 

What headlight is that? Do you have a pic from the front?

Thanks.  I had to look utilitarian up.  I thought you were calling me a tool.  laughingdp

Thanks DM620.  Any updated pix of yours?  The horns are the Hella Supertone Horn kit.  More info on the bike and mods/upgrades here: http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=34479.0

track tank came early.  Smiley i sat on the bike, and a lot more comfortable leg position. i'm about 6'2'', and my thighs fit perfectly in the cutout unlike on the OE tank.
