Thanks Liz but its what I wanted Cost me around £1500 to do and some enjoyable hours of playing with ideas and buying bits. Rather than selling it for an s4r I made it into one other than 80cc of engine. Your bike maybe nothing special NOT CRAP, but it can be turned into something special with time effort and a little money and a lotta love. You have to love your bike to want your bike as they do and will let you down from time to time. They are like humans other than they wont have an affair with a honda or yammy.
Keep it going and possibly bit by bit get it the way you want or buy something nicer later like s2r and pass it on to someone else who has a budget and a desire.
Ive done the old bike.97 m900 and then 03 s4 and just fortunate and stupidly fell for m1100s. Im lucky and Im working and I took a risk but I love my bike but DO miss s4. It was mine and Im proud and I have a plaque with UKMOC Bike of the Year 2008 to be proud of.
the whole point of this club is to unite people who have one thing in common. The DUCATI MONSTER. All monsters of age and colour and condition. Those who hate theirs dont last long on here because its offensive. We all have opinions on colour schemes and some will voice whether asked to or not. Some will voice when asked. Truth may hurt and boy have I been offended by some comments over 5 years on here. I take some in and throw some out. I have just changed clutch cover as some think its too bling. maybe is and I have chosen a nicer one IMHO like uksurfers but not because he had one but I liked it too.
Message over.
