Title: Best color Combo for a new style Monster

OK now that the M1100 has been announced and adds silver and black (non dark) panels to the fold. what is the best combo?

To start I have a Pearl White/Black
But I think the new Black/Black of the M1100 is awesome.
But the best would be Pearl White/Red

You should add the color of the wheels and front forks. For instance I don't like the 1100 red/red but the 1100S in red/red is nice.

well when i got into all the combos.. well let's just say ... lots of options so i went with the two that are pretty basic

want a red or black frame buy that color bike then get the other panels
lot harder to chang forks,wheels etc.

I started off not liking this model very much. It has started to really grow on me and so I am going to get a M1100S when I get back from Iraq in 11 months. But I also want a silver one  [bang].  I talked to the dealer and he said Ducati does not do custom orders  [bang]. So I said I want a red/red S model and the silver plastic pieces too.  Figured I would get the wheels off and sand/powder coat them silver and BAM... I have the bike I want.... for another $5000  [thumbsup]

Unless Ducati figures it out and the 2010 lineup has a silver S  [evil]

5 grand? no way. the panels would not cost anywhere near that, and by that time you might find an 1100 owner that wants to trade. and it's only the 2 tank panels and the bikini. the rest is CF on the S.

powder coating the wheels. ya got me there, but i bet there's someone on the board that can give you a better idea.

Unfortunately; I will bleed silver and black forever...Although it is funny how everyone forgets that we were in the Superbowl 5 years ago...not so washed up...I figure the last few years have been spent modding it!   ;)
