Ok, so the 750 just isn't worth upgrading. Is that what your getting at ducpainter?
I'll just have to keep my eyes open for a proper 900 motor.
Than pistons and flywheel? lol

For the same, or less, money the stock 900 upgrade will give you roughly the same hp and gobs more torque over building a 750.

You choose.

Well thats pretty cut and dry.

I accept that.

It appears as though the flywheel upgrade is interchangeable.

So I could add that to the list for the bike.

If I had a line on a clean 900 motor I'd be all over it.

I'll be happy to be rolling again soon upgrades or not!

Thanks for talking some since into me ducpainter...lol [thumbsup]

Honestly, sell on the 750 motor and look for a carbed 900 motor. It will be a good performance upgrade and easier to do. Easier to do will be cheaper without annoying conversion work. Take your time to find a 900 motor you can work on out of the frame if you want to do mods.
Here's a reasonable priced recipe': Hi comp pistons, heavy duty engine studs (if needed), light flywheel, open airbox with K&N filter and Ignitech. The beauty of this is that you have already done some of these mods, you have FCRs, coils, etc. The most expensive part is the FCRs and you got them [thumbsup]. Very satisfying street performance.
Make haste slowly for a better outcome.

I totally hear you loud and clear koko. Although I need a bike to ride in the meantime and Ignitech just sent me an email.

When I asked about swapping the flywheel and pick-ups, this was their response

"No, you have to use original pick-up on 2002 engine. In attachment is photo of connector adapter. There you can see two connections fits to Kokusan connection and also connection for original 2002 engine pick-up." also have a picture of the connector adapted...

Appearently it is plug and play.

To sell the motor it may take months or more. Not many people seem to scoop these dog 750's up for good reason.
I'd like to consider the 2002 motor as a place holder for a soon to be found 900.
Plus maybe I can part out my current junker 750 for parts to recoup some lost $

Looks like I'm going to spend the 200+ price tag for the ignitech and adapters after a bit more research.

Like I said I need a moto to ride!!! Like NOW!

By purchasing the ignitech you also open the possibility of upgrading to a 1000 motor.

Are your FCR's 39's or 41's?

Hope you're back on the road soon as a 750 Monster is better than no Monster. Good idea parting out the spare motor while you plan your big bore project. Will be watching to see how things progress. Good to hear that Ignitech have it covered.
Those FCR 39s will come in handy be it a 750 , 900 or 1000.
Good luck.

Really?

39's
For a street bike...you bet. I'd feel safer with 41's on the DS motor.

The possibilities are endless. ;D

DP, it may have been more sporadic -Ducati was broke in '96-98 and the TPG changes (they bought Ducati in '96?) came slow.
My '98 M900 came w/ the "W" small valve/750 heads & cams.
I have "V" heads now from a 96 900ss. Gives a little more on top.


Terse, the heads are marked near the top on one side so you can see if they have the V or the W. V engines have a couple mm bigger valves, different cams, and maybe 5hp more.
Ride fast, ride safe

According to the bikeboy report it was from late 96 non S model carbed Monsters. Brad gives an engine number. The easiest way is to look for the W or V.
I was about to buy a bike so I called Brad and asked for the cam markings and took the cam covers off the W heads to check if it hadnt been modified to V specs. Some people here worked the heads (expensive) but swapping them over wouldnt cost much in the US.

all good advice.

the 750 is a good motor to start with, not to upgrade to.  you have more options with a carbie 900 motor.

someone near me sold their 94 900SS motor for $450.  Good shape, needed a clutch and carbs.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

This is my first motorcycle. Which I've had now for a few years and 30000+ miles

Damn wish I could find a deal like that...
