Title: An old Monster (and his Ducati)
Post by: Brutto750 on March 18, 2014, 08:16:25 PM
Hi, I'm Adam from Melbourne, Australia. I've been riding for about 17 years, and this is my first Ducati, bought a few years ago after a short break away from bikes (previous bike were Hondas: VT250, CBR1000F, VFR750; and a Yamaha XT350).

I've got a pretty rough M750 from '98, bought a few years ago (from eBay, sight unseen, from interstate!) because it had the mods I'd planned on doing to a Monster when I'd bought one, namely oval carbon pipes and bar-end mirrors. I think the bars are non-standard, so if you can tell let me know.

I thought you guys might be interested in a headlight mod I did to install an LED halo ring. When I wanted to do it I couldn't find anything on the web, so hopefully if someone else is thinking of doing something similar my experience will help. I'll start a new topic in the "Accessories & Mods" section with a link to my YouTube video. Putting the LED ring on a ratty bike like mine is a bit like putting lipstick on a sow, but it was a fun first moto-DIY job and makes me a little more visible to traffic.
