hehehe

Update: just shipped rear hugger and Side Panels out to be painted Smiley Smiley Smiley waiting to figure out better forks and rear shock!

How bout a penske out back and some early model s4 adjustables up front!!   Shocked

I think the Ducati ST series bolt right up also, but I think the fork tubes are a bit longer?

Outer tubes on the ST forks are slightly longer than Monsters, but enough that you won't notice.  But the springs?!?  WAY TOO heavy for an air-cooled, small case Monster.
