Work in progress

Hi Guys, my bike is (and always has been) work in progress, I think most Monsters are , so here is the latest installment of my particular work - an MV Augusta style seat unit with integral tail light/indicators, check it out

Thats one large back end you've got. I think the seat unit might be abit to wide for the monster but if you like it then all is good. I am more of a fan of major single seat tail chops.

Mine seems to have been more of a repair work in progress recently

Looking very nice Are those extra indicators in the vents or is it just the way the photo came out?

Hi Adam, yes mate, indicators in the vents, and the tail light - looks awesome (IMHO)

It's a Ducati Performance one - I got it from a breakers yard, I think it looks a bit better than the standard monster one - a bit more to it, and it doesn't flap about like it's trying to take off!

I work for the council so 5.30pm would be like over time for me

.... I actually get in early so I can leave at 4.00pm but am only up your way randomly for training courses and actually work south of the city out in East Leake / Keyworth.

Looks really well executed but I'm not a big fan of MV tailed monsters

It's just too wide IMHO

I quite like the look of mv-style seats, but I also think that the std monster seat cowl is something of a classic design and takes a lot of beating.

I believe that The Adam was selling his recently, if you fancy one, Marsh.
Not sure whether he still has it, and he doesn't log in here quite so often these days, but a pm would probably reach him eventually, and might bear fruit.
