JÃ¤ttesnygg moppe

That color scheme is

Maybe you could improve even further.....
gold stripes on the front wheel as well?
gold bar ends?
gold reservoir caps?
gold lower head light trim?

I don't think there's a gold stripe on the rear - it's the light reflecting on it. But yeah - gold strips on the wheels

Man, all of these bikes...

Here's my new to me 1999 M900, ~23,000 miles

Previous owner did some cosmetic stuff. Exhaust was custom made. She sounds amazing and handles like a dream.

Tack och hoppas att du hade en fin nationaldag igÃ¥r!
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.

Went on a beautiful ride a couple of days ago. I always enjoy looking at pictures of everyone else's bikes so I decided to finally share some of mine. More to come when I get around to spend some time in the garage...

Best regard / Mike / Sweden

Nice ride ...

As for wheels, everyone of us has different taste, if it were me, I'd paint the new set "titanium grey" , gold will, IMHO, 'HEY I'M HERE, LOOK AT ME!!!! ...

I have always thought Ducati should offer at least one bike in their product line... option YELLOW.

I was supposed to go for a ride today. Instead, I wound up giving the bike a quick wash and wax instead. Then I took a few shots and played with the HDR software.

Which is already tastefully achieved by riding a Duc in the first place!

I've been working on a Yellow 848 SL on photoshop for a while.

Are those wheels a direct swap? Your bike looks good, I love that set of monster art skins.

2001 M900ie, the standard low-budget Cafe Monster. Ohlins rear shock, Ohlins steering damper, S2R adjustable front forks, Motowheels clip-ons, Rizoma rearsets. Pipes are a mystery, bike came with them, opened airbox and a PC-3.
