Modifications to the S2R1000 Monster triple tree assembly involved pressing the stem out of the 1000SS lower triple, then machining bushings to allow that stem to be used with the S2R1000 upper and lower triples:

What is this going to weigh  compared to the 750SS that you had?

So I've had a couple of 750's over the years; I had a 1992 750SS that I bought new, then modified into a naked roadster (much like this build) and then later turned into a CCS club racebike.   I also had a 2001 750SSi.e. that I lightened with Marchesini wheels, and 1000SS alloy swingarm, and carbon fiber slip-ons.

I don't think any of them were as light as I hope to make this bike.

I don't know which 750 it was . I remember you telling me it had 50 hp. However it probably had the most perfect suspension setup ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok so this current bike  is probably going to be bonkers, isn't there a different crank to up the displacement  just a pinch more. 

i mean if you are going through ALL the TROUBLE of porting the heads and a big bore, perhaps a different crank will yield  substantial results.

I had not thought of extra stroke, just boring it.  Will have to look into that!

Very little room for extra stroke on the 1000/1100 motors.

Is there any?!?  The damned crank & rods won't rotate cleanly around unless the rods are aligned to their respective bores as the rod bolt bosses hang up on the timing lay shaft...

Yes, looks like I'll just be able to have it bored out, not stroked.

Picked up a pair of new Napoleon Baren chrome bar-end mirrors:

DS1000SS Roadster Project continued by s4rsrider, on Flickr

Funny; when I was younger I put the black version of these on just about every motorcycle I ever owned. I always thought the black was sportier than the chrome.  Now I'm "regressing" to the chrome since the target look is early 1970's, before the satin black, black chrome, matte black "look" ever got any traction.

You should find a NOS set of those "titty" grips while yer at it.

I like those ones. I'd put them on an older model to keep the retro look.
