I just picked up a 98 Monster 900
It is in excellent condition except for the tank. The turn stops were not adjusted properly
So the previous owner applied some dents
I was thinking about tracking down a cover for now
Any suggestions where to look?  eBay had a few but they were all located in France
Anything available in the US?
Thanks for all suggestions!!
My people skills are just fine.
It's my tolerance to idiots that needs work.

I bought a generic magnetic tank bag for my Monster that would accomplish the same, but give you storage as well.  I know it will cover your dents because I had mine on when I dropped my bike and I didn't realize I'd dented the tank for two days until I took the bag off.   [bang]

I had a bagester tank bag and cover. It was great! Bought it new from local bike accessories store.

My new bike is so beautiful I can't come to terms with covering up the tank so I have this useless 'bum' bag on it that flops all over the place. [bang] [bang]

You can get them in different colours. Here's a pick of it .

Bagster is the French company that makes the ones on ebay..  IMO, they're hideous.   [evil]  They look bad enough on an (already ugly)  BMW R1150GS.  To put one on a Ducati would be sacrilege.   [laugh]

Fixed!  [cheeky]
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.
