Just in case you have a SF or newer Monster and have to replace the mirrors and want the OEM look but no the price, take a look here,

Valve Adjustment shims
- openers, closers, shim measuring tool, etc. for both 2-V and 4-V individually or in kits. I bought a kit and can give an unsolicited testimonial to their quality, fit finish, hardness and sizing. Compared to what Ducati wants for the Openers and Closer shims and the typical wait on the parts order because most dealers don't want to give up their personal stash when they don't get the service labor to adjust your valves and this outfit is a total bargain. Not to mention, if you go thru your checks the first time and find you are not likely to use some portion of the range in the kit, they'll take the unused sizes back and swap for shims you will use. How cool is that?

Cam Timing Belts & Tools
- I bought some cam belts and cam timing tools from California Cycleworks. The belts were exact and equal quality to the expensive Ducati labelled belts at about half the price. I got a crankshaft turning tool and a Motion Pro degree wheel altered fit on the crank turning tool and a piston stop tool, which could be easy enough to fabricate, turn and weld, but they made it easy one-stop shopping and it all worked together right out of the box.

From that part#, I'm 99% sure that's a plastic tank.

Then in such case ... if he has a M750ie, he has a metal tank ... unless he has a post 02 in which case he could have either? Right?
This from the readings on tanks in the Tech thread ..

I have a 2002 750 ie, I didn't purchase this tank, If I have some time ill research the part figure out if it is in fact a plastic tank. I am sure you are right though. I thought plastic tanks didn't come out till 2006?

Just knock on it, if it goes like 'blang' is metal if it goes 'tok tok' is plastic ... I'd stay with the metal tank if I were you ...

M750ie was one year only, 2002, and it came with a metal tank.
Plastic tanks started in 2005, but weren't used on all models that year.

OK, I've seen an 04 620 with plastic and with metal down here in Panama ... One came from the US the other bought directly here ...also an 02 MS4 with metal and the other one with plastic .. see me confussion ...all 4 bikes are each 2 from the same year, both MS4 were bought in teh US and brought here by owners ...

In the US, '05 was the start of the plastic tanks.
I've never seen a monster with a plastic tank earlier than that.
If you saw an '02 S4 with a plastic tank from the US, it was retrofitted.

Ducati Starter 2002 M750 Part # 270.4.001.1A = $554.05
Called EMS (Electric Motor Service)
www.electricmotorsvc.com
304-752-6070
Got the exact same Denso starter. Brand new not rebuilt Denso part # 128000-6050 for $132.66 It even has the Ducati part number as 270 4001 1A above the Denso #.
They also have a Denso knockoff replacement for 109.00 if you need to save more, but I opted for the direct replacement.
I am in no way affiliated with these guys, just amazed at the savings and wanted to share with the rest of you.
