My brother got a nice 2001 900Sie, no Ohlins. Buddy had a 2000 900Sie,  Ohlins shock. I have heard that although carbed M900S models generally had the Sachs shock, some got the Ohlins, but I haven't seen one.

The 2000 S was kind of a one-off. If rumor holds true they all got Ohlins as Ducati had a bunch and with the planned frame transition coming up they had to so something with them. So the 2000 900S got some extra bling. Also has the floating rear caliper wich no other monster shipped with.

Hey SupraGuy74 - I'd love to see a write up on how you did that light - parts etc. I bet others would as well. Could we get you to do a write up in the tutorials?

My 02 came with a Sachs ;-/

Also very nice.

^^^^ That is just plain Sexy!!!.....bravo    Like the tank decal, red accents, clutch cover.

Nice bike.I too just bought a 2001 M900S,it has the Sachs shock and I plan on changing the spring as it is a cheaper mod,then once it blows I'll get the Ohlins. Also will do new fork springs and gold valves.I really need to add a bigger rear sprocket as it's just plain silly, stock.I took off the belt covers to check belts and a piece that holds the nuts in place had broken off and wedged itself against the belt.Yikes! Well,it was scheduled to go over to Eric at Clubhouse Motorsports for belts and valve adj. anyways.
My last bike (RC51) had a Sato CF HM exhaust,the PO had reversed the cans,I think some people do it to hide the badges so it is not as obvious to the police that you have a race exhaust but on that set-up they were slightly different (not the same part #).
The critters did the same thing to my airbox in a Toyota Tacoma I had.

how does the duc sound with an arrapovic?

Funny thing on my Termis...the inside that he had facing out had "For Off Road Use Only" stamped in the metal and showing  

I've had 2 SP2 RC51s and loved 'em. It was between an RC or the Monster, but I had to get another 900.

  Me too.I went right to the Akropovic website but they don't have anything for the 2001 M900,not even in the discontinued archives.Could you use one from a similar model? What kind of tail light/blinker set-up is that?
