Title: New Duc Monster Owner sez HEY!!!
Post by: bunnyman on August 12, 2010, 02:06:04 PM
Hi, I am bunnyman from Illinois. I have a new-to-me 2000 Duc Monster Dark with 3100 miles on the clock. I have already done a few mods, such as a tailchop, exhaust (Leo Vince that exits at the seat), and a Thruxton Flyscreen. I also have ditched the lorry-sized mirrors and indicators.

I have a frontal photo to show y'all- please note that this doesn't reflect the new indicators, mirrors, or exhaust:

Now with improvements:

Welcome to the DMF and congrats on your Duc, looks great! [thumbsup]

I guess it didn't take you long to be bitten by the modding bug. ;D

When you get a chance, also stop in and introduce yourself to your local group, MOCHA (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?board=31.0).

have fun! [moto]

Thanks for the welcome. I live nowhere near Chicago, so maybe a St. Louis, MO group would be more appropriate for me. I live across the river from St. Louis.

Yeah- I hated the beer tray and it lasted for one week!!! Stock exhaust wasn't bad, but I had a smokin' deal on the Leo Vince. I love the aesthetics otherwise. I do have to get the paint fixed on the tank (ex-owner's SO keyed it), then everything else will be matched.

This is my second Duc, and I have to say that Ducs are such a great bike.
