My 2003 Monster 620 rebuild

[rohalloran]

I have been meaning to put these photos up for a while. I bought the bike about 18 months ago with the intention of a project. I thought it was reasonable clean when I bought it but when you see it completed, it wasn't so clean...  

Some of the extra's I have added so far:
Sodablasted engine to clean all the muck off it
Powdercoated the frame, wheels, clamps, number of brackets
Repainted tank and all panels
Rizoma Handlebars
DucaBike Headstock cap
DP Comfort seat
High Mount Termi Pipes
CarbonWorld Rear Tail Plate
CarbonWorld Rear Mudguard (In the post)
Oxford LED Indicators

Few more goodies on the way:
Mirrors
MVS Aluminium Chain Tensioner
Bellypan
Techspec Tank Pad
Upgrade main bolts to aluminium

Welcome to hear any feedback or others thoughts from forum members. The full album can be seen here. I've just added a few to the post as a taster.

When I bought it



The strip down begins:



Engine out and ready to go to the Sodablaster



Throttle bodies out and ready to go for Ultra Sonic Cleaning



Off to the Powder coater



Body work and tank ready for painting



The rebuild begins









My favourite addition



I'll be posting some better shots when I get the remaining few bits and the sun comes out again. Ducatis always look better in the sunshine I find...

Looking good and getting the effect you want . Nothing like fresh frame, motor, wheel and swingarm paint to freshen up the overall look. Makes a bike new.

Great work. Makes me regret getting rid of my 620 earlier this winter 😔 was hoping to do the same but just didn't think I could do it justice.

Ride Italian. Drive German. Kiss French.
