I've got the chance to buy my first duc/bike bike (900ss/sp) back for pretty cheap.  It's a 900, exhaust, 41mm FCrs, das it.  Sans fairings, with a round headlight....it ain't pretty.

Wondering what kind of ideas/images you guys could come up with ...

I was thinking 999 tank/seat/subframe combo.  Keep the old school 3 spokes, SBK front end....hell I dunno.

"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.

given all your spare 999/999R parts laying around...

Keep 2V engine, tank and most of the frame.

+999 swingarm / wheel / brakes / shock setup (leave aluminum finish)
+999 front fork / wheel / brakes (999 triples mod'd to use 900stem)
+999 rear seat/cowl (modify 900 frame in the seat area)
+999 rearsets (frame tabs to fit)
+999 kickstand

Add a small front cowl that is quasi-vintage racer looking (I just sold some 851 that would have been perfect)

White frame as all the great Supersports were with that color

Bodywork probably Superlight yellow w/white panels and pinstripe

Wheels would be painted black with polished rim lips

Large tach assembly with tiny LED speedo gauge (inside or almost hidden)

Ride it and enjoy.  Super simple simple and it would be eye catching.
