2002 S4 with 20 000km. Currently being serviced.  [thumbsup]

Serious question here: does my (bike) ass look a little low. Any n00b threads on raising the ride height?



Hard to tell from the pic, but have you added some spring preload yet?  If the bike has the ride height you want when you are not on it, just dial in enough preload to keep it from dropping down when you get on.  If that doesn't do it you may need to raise the ride height with the rod just fore of the spring. There are manuals you can download on Ducati.com that will give you detailed instructions on how to adjust your particular model.  Let us know how it works out.

    Love the transformation Scooby!!!   [thumbsup]

Here's my 2001 MS4, with 6000 miles on it....Currently running Full Termi kit w/ spaghetti pipe, open airbox, DP ECU, DP race Cams, 14T front, Sargent seat, and Michelin Power Race medium-softs...The S4 is the most unique Monster IMHO, being that it's the only one ever made with the 916 motor....Other things add to it's uniqueness too, though...

I just installed a MotoWheels red pressure plate + half cover, which I'll post pics of later....These pics are from earlier this year....I also have a Matris M3 damper on the way....The only color they had was blue though!!!  :-\ Oh well, it might look cool, who knows.... :)



Love the side plastics on radi and just behind. I would love to know where you aquired them as well as the belly pan. I can only find another kind which doesnt conform to the engine well.

Oh and the seats!

Speak up on this scooter! Who's got one? I know we are a minority, but then again I think we have at least 8-10 that I've seen so far posting...

Mine, an 01, purchased last Sept. w/ 5400 miles (12k as of today ;D) a few mods here and there...
