well im done throwing all the stuff i bought on my bike,still waiting for my ecu and gotta do my airbox,
new chain going on and front tire, other than that i think ive got most of it finished!
sorry for the crappy pics getting a new camera soon waytogo

here it is when i bought it after doing the tail chop....


here is the damoto exhaust before and after...




and here it is all done with clubman bars ( i know eh vomit ......) and napoleons. also lowered gauges and dual headlight, custom seat cowl
with led directionals and taillamp, custom paint and ducati wing decals, couple other things that escape my mind but y ou get the idea.

its been done on an extremely tight budget i have about $2500 into the whole bike including the cost of the bike so I think i did pretty good. waytogo
btw ive never owned a bike before this and had never worked on one. i bought the bike last june and have already done my own belt and valve adjustment and all the mods also. Of course none of this would have even been possible whithout all the help i got on here Cheesy

Nicely done.

How do you like the exhaust? Fit, Finish, Sound, etc?  I've been kicking around the idea of ordering a set.

so far im happy. havent been out to ride yet but i like it. I went from the chopped and cored to these and they are a bit quieter but not much. they look nice if you dont mind them being a bit small. i was actually torn between the carbon fiber and the conical exhaust they make. The only reason I got thee were that the conical use a hanger that wraps around the cone and not an actual bracket behind the cone as they should be.

 waytogo for a low budget bike that doesn't look low budget.

do you have risers and clubman's? it looks like if you took them out then rotated them up slightly to clear you would have room to clear and better downward angle (assuming you want it more sporty, that looks like a comfortable position).

i actually was thinking about taking the risers off but when i do i think
it would be too much of a downward angle. im pretty tall and with the risers it
puts the hand controls about level with the top triple and about a 30 degree downslope
seems to feel nice but looks a little weird with the risers.

i work at my fathers bodyshop so i know cars pretty well. bikes are pretty simple imo. but like i said a lot of it was reading and asking questions. im also planning on making a small front cowl sometime soon, and new front signals among other thing.

i will come up with a list of cost and stuff but i know it wasnt more than that, the bike is a
salvaged title and the person who owned it before me replaced the tank that was
damaged leading the ins. co. to total it. so there isnt anything wrong with it. and yes it
is a steel tank.

Looks great, regardless of what you spent on it.

I can't tell how you did your taillight from the pics... care to elaborate?

Also, it looks like you've got an extender from your exhaust brackets to the straps on the cans... was there a problem with the fit on the exhaust?
