still hate that damn vertical headlight arrangement. for some reason it just doesn't look good.. and the overdoing of carbon to "bling it out" sort of gets tired. it would be better if they painted it and did the carbon accents to show through much more understated let the engineering the the lines scream instead.

Yep, that's the one.
If I remember correctly, it is pretty pricey.
If I remember correctly that swingarm was $2200. I can't remember who makes it. Does any one know who makes the swingarm on the red Monster above.

Black is dull and boring....only Batman can wera black
The White/Red one is fingerlicking good..
Have you tried spray painting carbon fibre in white...so it becomes 80 opaque ?
That must look great

That exhaust strut ruins the lines in the back. Other than that, it's a work of art.

I believe they are still available.
Try Desmoworks I'm petty sure they are now a dealer for Moto Corse or Bob Steinbugler (Bimota Spirit).

keeps objects out of the chain/sprocket junction if "bad stuff" happens.

True. All of the best pictures of the DB7 are from the left side. They probably offer a Termi aftermarket exhaust for it.

Kinda like folks here with a SSS Monster, mostly post pics of the right side.
