Well she finally rode her home today. After a month without a bike, she was so excited. She lit up when she saw it.  We both rode out of the dealer on our Monsters today.  What a great day.  We already have her tail chop waiting at the house, and I ordered her clear Motodynamics integrated taillight tonight.    :)   It's going to be a busy weekend coming up!










I feel lucky.   ;D

now get her on the board so she can start modding the hell out of that thing. 

i like the white/red combo. 

also, this is a great (albeit expensive) mod for to lose the passenger pegs on your evo...i may have to look further into this, you should too since you've already done the hard part!  [beer]

Her and I did the tail chop and integrated tail-light today.  Came out GREAT!!  She wants me to post for her on the forum. She has her exhaust options narrowed down to Vance & Hines CS1, Arrow or Leo Vince.  Suggetions on any of these 3?  I have heard them all online, just not in person.

Here are a few before and after pics.








What mod were you speaking of for passenger pegs on the EVO?  I took mine off months ago lol

i was talking about the "get her her own damn bike so she doesn't have to ride on the back of mine" mod lol. 

is that the motodynamics tail light?  i need to get me one of those...
also, dont be so quick to rule out the sc project cans - those things look sweet too  [thumbsup]

 Regarding pipes, my first Monster had Leo Vince pipes and my wife said it sounded like a beater. She liked the Termy sound on my second one much better. I didn't mind it, butt YMMV.

I will definitely look into the SC project pipes and see if she likes them.  I just started working for a Ducati Dealer so i do get  break on the Termi's, but i do not want us to have the same pipes.   ;)

Once we have our Dyno room finished, i am going to have my bike and hers tuned.

Lovely bike Dex  [thumbsup]
I like the tail chop. I like the looks of a bike without that rear fender and I would like to do it on my bike too ... but since I often ride in rain, I need that rear fender.
