"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Factory Oddity: 1999 Monster 900 S - From Italy, Metric Speedometer, with Supersport CR Fairing with Checkerflag style paint on the side (like was on the DP tanks), coffin masters, and has what appears to be a Corbin-style Seat (but from the factory - installed - cant use seat cowl) and had the all the DPM sprocket cover, alternator inspection cover, cam covers, and "DUCATI" cast in the Triple Clamp - came OUT OF THE CRATE this way.

He only has pictures in print form, I'm going to try to get him to ride it up here to take pictures of it.

I like this bike a lot, but what's up with the wheels? If you go to all that trouble you'd think they at least put some sweet, lightweight wheels on it.  Huh? Even if those are light (and I doubt it unless there some weird material)...the old Duc 3 spokes are fugly. This bike needs BSTs!!

Also has the same Chinese-made rotors that I bought for my bike..:  (which by the way are GREAT, but still...)

Maybe since Rad Duc is using them, that's an endorsement of sorts?  I can't find anything wrong with them

slots look like the chinese copies, not braking.. missing extra drilling... the spokes of the carrier are tapered like the chinese...

These are the one's I was referring to, but you may be right as the slots appeared curved like the one's you showed.
I just find it hard to believe they aren't using, EBC, Braking or Galfer for their rotors
