Here's my contribution. Still lots to do. For instance, this week the frame is being modified to accommodate a cafe style tail.
Before:
Mostly stock 1999 Dark


Current:
1996 SS tank with internal fuel pump
41mm FCR carbs
Aluminum velocity stacks
Bultaco quarter fairing
LED headlight
Apex clipons
Dan Moto conical pipes
Header wrap
Deleted oil cooler
Alien Motion Lifepo4 battery w MOSFET RR

OK, here it goes:
The day I picked it up, 06/24/06


A year after, when I had the Termis installed and covers painted,


A few days after I finished rebuilding it after the 01/06/08 accident,


About a year ago with the big brake conversion, T-Rex sliders and TBR clip ons, with my cat inspecting that all was OK


As it is today with the Alpina wheels, Ducabike rearsets and Woodcraft clip-ons,


and from the rear,

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.

Not much really. This is a pic from early summer. Hadn't yet gotten the fairing, which still needs to be cut.

Yeah I dig it. I love "built" motorcycles. Maybe come up with some type of housing for that dash, but I guess your fairing takes care of that? And if you do that 900 swap keep an eye out for a good deal on a 5.5" wheel...very easy bolt on mod and really looks the business.

Thanks man. Speedo is gone for now. Waiting to find a suitable mini digi speedo w red read outs. And I'm already looking for the fat rear wheel...

My cheeks become flushed with jealous rage at the sight of an S4R and that hot sexy SSS.  [bang]  [drink]  [bang]  [drink]

I thought this was a really cool idea.

Here is a side by side comparison of my bike.  The day I brought it home and 6 months later:

How bout a bigger pic of them spiffy wheels and Ducabike sets Carlos? I've always wanted to see both those parts installed

Check again, added view from rear, remember I needed to get the tires of my 3 spoke wheels that's why no rotors installed and will take the opportunity to replace chain/sprockets

Got a frontal shot with a good view of that headlight, Duck Off?
