Looks good, it that Steel diamond plate or Aluminum?

Aluminum.

It gets surprisingly warm, which tells me it's doing its job.

Hi   

Here a little mod that I've been waiting to do for a long time    I've just bought a dremel so let's cut !!!
A part that I never really like on the monster is the rear seat cowl ...it has those "flange" on the side that doesn't really fallow the line of the bike so after a couple of month looking at it I've decide to "redesign" it


so let's cut  ...make sure to wear safety glasses , a mask and some gloves !!!!!fiberglass is really nasty stuff it can get into your eyes and your lung's


here a hole to secure it to the seat

and voila    it's now just need a little paint  will I'll do latter

Here's another side        now it's at my own taste

Nicely done. 

Course now your passenger grab handles stick out like dumbo ears.  Time to fire up that Dremel again.

Beautiful job DucatiGirl!!

Anyone know where I can get these checkered CORSE tank decals that on her bike?

Aloha,

Pretty sure that's a Ducati Performance tank, available as an aftermarket accessory.

While I was riding last year  a guy stop beside me whit a speed triple and he ask me where I've bought the bike.  then he said that it was is old bike  what a coincidence ..lol   he even name the store that I've got the bike ..... he confirm me that he was the one that put the tank on the bike .....

Looks good, agree that you should dump the grab handles too if your doing that mod.

I bought a spare set of OEM rear sets for my M696 off of ebay to mod. I chopped off the passenger pegs & the long part that held them, and then sprayed them in wrinkle black paint. They came out OK, but I wish I would have waited a few more days before installing them. The paint was still soft so there are some blemishes in the finish. Oh well, it only cost me about $45 and I still have my stock set if I ever need them.
