Well like every vehicle I buy, I told myself I'll leave it stock but that never seems to happen.  So far I've lied to myself by adding a termi 50mm system,  Shift-tech tail and clutch cover, poor duc rider faring stays, heavycycles LED taillight, some ducati "chromies" for the valve stems, a clear protective flim for the tank and front end, and I think that about covers it.  I'm hoping to leave well enough alone for a while, but I've said that before too  Grin.

Yea, I try to leave mine stock too. What a joke.

As delivered, these things aren't what the designers intended anyway.

Yours is a beaut. Love those tricolors.

I agree 100%, everything I've done so far should have been on there to begin with.  In the past when I've modified vehicles there always seems to be a negative trade off, but so far this bike has only gotten better.  I couldn't be happier with it.

I used the one from Stickercity.com, the Ventureshield brand.  Everything was easy to install with the exception of the front fairing.  That was a huge pita, and it didn't turn out as good as I'd hoped.  I may end up taking that piece off since all I was worried about was the tank anyways.

Thanks for the all the compliments so far.  The tail light will soon be integrated, I have one on order from Visi-tec that should be here any day now.  As far as gas milage I don't really pay much attention to it, but it seems to be right around 90-100 miles per tank.  I think I rev the motor much higher now just because I like the sound so I'm pretty sure if mileage went down thats the main culprit Grin.
