Don't have any with the Monster yet.  Here's an obligitory shot from deal's gap.  The pics are a bit overexposed (road was actually wet, doesn't look it in the pics though) - had just stopped raining and conditions were great - no cops and very little traffic.  I had a ton of luggage though as I was on the last day or two of a 6-week trip (and I had to bring MX gear and courtroom-approprate cloths along too)


This taken just abit before the above shot I think (I took this one on the move)

I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

I looked pretty hard trying to find where "fail" occurred. Couldn't find it.

Track day this past Monday.

Any recommendations on rearsets that fit a 900ie? Pegs are way too low...

LOL!!
I'm the coach that bumped you into 2 where you belonged.
Like I said, with a monster you NEED to keep the bike more upright, cause once it's not the pegs/toes dragging (even though you were on the balls of your feet), then it's the kickstand nub or the pipes and the cross joint... the only way they don't drag shit is when you jack them waaaaaay up. And then it gets tricky keeping the geometry correct.

now with that said, talk to Chris at CycleCat cause they've got some sweet rearsets that fit the DSS previous gens...

There's a Ducati only track day this Monday coming with DESMO. Always a great time!!!!
Hope you had fun.

Yup.  Time to get the ass off the seat!  There's a reason the 851-888 and SS employ a 'high' / upswept pipe design. Cheesy

Perhaps it's my fail then, because none of your pictures are working.
