Hi from the UK! I feel I can join the forum now as I have just bought a 600 Monster!
my start with Ducati didnt go well... a few years ago I bought an ST4... but I just didn't get on with it and sold it soon after. Last august a Multistrada came up which had some light bodywork damage so I bought that to work on over the winter. I did a full nut and bolt restoration on it, and although I really like it, its not a Monster. Its almost a monster thought... but not quite! there are some pictures below of the build but the full story is at

The new bike is a 1997 M600 which at the moment is not running well, another reason for joining the forum, I will post a separate thread on that shortly and hope to get some advice.

and finally, the new purchase. Not sure what I am going to do with it yet, first thing is to get it running, and then decide... it will be this winters project.

A couple beautiful machines, and obviously you're great with a wrench. Very nice!
