Ducati Bobber 900

[666r]

I'm Ricky from racecitypowersports in Mooresville NC Our latest project is a rigid bobber with a v twin from a Ducati 900. We started this project after we finished our Motocreations Hyper Devil. Old school bobber with Ducati Power and braking.

I like it-but I've always been a sucker for springer front ends.


Looks like a fun project!

I'm liking it. I think the biggest thing for me is that the Duc motor looks like it belongs in the frame and here it does IMHO. Nice work.

I'm not much of a chopper guy, but I do apprciate a good bobber and the idea of one with a ducati 900 engine works for me.

nice job!

Damn thing needs a seat! Pretty cool scooter. Choppers no, old school bobbers yes!

I love old school bobbers, but there is too much negative space in that frame for me Right now. It will be interesting to see it at 100%

It still needs a battery, seat, oil cooler and a few misc things.  They should take up some of the negitive space.

That's why I said I want to see it at 100%  it should be interesting. I'd love to build a custom bike using a Duc heart, so I'm interested to see where this ends up. I think it's a cool idea.

Is that hyper devil the one with the burnt orange paint job? If it is I will say this: you guys build cool bikes, but you need to fire who ever designs your paint schemes. That burnt orange is one of the ugliest colors ever to appear on a bike this side of a Pontiac Aztek. And that grim reaper on this bobber is so "Bad Ass" trite and cliched that it looks like it was designed by a low rent tattoo artists in the wrong end of Hoboken. But other than the paint (and maybe how high the headlight is) its a cool looking bike. How was the engine modified?

I think the pipes and motor mounts kill it for me. the pipes just based on personal taste (to modern for me, but its not mine so make the beast with two backs it) and the motor mounts make it apparent that really any engine could be in that frame (and that a more traditional british or american motor would probably suit it better)

but its also clearly unfinished and im sure the remaining work will make it flow better.

Very cool for what it is.

I'd ditch the mural on the tank...but that's me.

[Monster Dave]

no, just 

I was being...polite.

Bobbers are just too played out. 

Seen the same pipe configuration on a ton of choppers.

Headlight is too high.
