Hi everyone. Im posting a picture of my new monster to know what you guys think about it.
Im a tattoo artist baed in london and before this ducati i ve got a scooter for an year ( vxr 180 ). I think that was a good idea to refresh my memory on how traffic work ,because for the last ten year i ve been travelling and with no bike to ride.
Anyway this cost me £1500 .is a 98 black all original . the guy sold it with new pirelli diablo (corsa i think but im not sure) tires and battery. Service history is ok and the belts have been done 600 miles ago.( receipt is present as well) . The only thing that can i spot is a bit of rust on the swingarm , but im gonna get that sort it soon .
At the moment i ordered some parts in carbon fiber and a rev counter to fit on it. Im gonna post new picture when i ll do the job.
Anyway let me know what do you guys think , and if somebody come to london and want to hang out a bit or going for a ride ( or even a tattoo ) let me know . Bye :bucks:

Tidy looking bike sounds like you got a bargain there, if all you've got is a bit of rust on the swing arm then that aint bad at all. You should see the rust on mine its ok from a distance but close up hell no!!!

Cheers,

Shandy

Thanks to register me as member,and no tattoo they dont hurt a lot . depend how big do you want the tattoo and where. What do you feel is a burny sensation when you get it done that get milder after the first 5 min.
For the chop tail im not sure . For now i got some smaller white indicator and a new smaller bracket for the numberplate. im gonna put them on during the weekend.

Have you thought about airbrushing your tank ?
as a tatoo artist, i would have imagined that the bug will take you at some point ?

I like customisation but im not a big fan of airbrush. And for the monster i would like to put some more parts and change some other but that s it.
And yes off course everyone on the UKMOC can get a special price.
