I think you know which is faster, but since this is a Duc forum we won't go there. 

It's a '96 with about 10,300 miles at purchase. I bought it off a Duc rider in Irving (he should be at the track day today giving his track Duc a workout). BTW--thanks to Dax for catching the CL ad.  There's nothing like friends to help you spend $$$. 

RichD and a13bpilot gave me ideas for some performance mods (carbs, flywheel, etc). First, though, I'm looking at completing some cosmetic and maintenance work. So far I've added some bar-end mirrors (experimenting with some I had laying around) and new progrips.

I've been enjoying the heck out of it so far.   [moto]

gladly CJ.  tell me the mods you want and I'll fetch the links for ya since I don't sleep.

CJ! Nice move man!  It seems like the SS crowd is about even with the trip 9 crowd! Very sweet looking ride!

Hmm. I've never posted here, must have over looked it. Its kind of like Monday (Tuesday), so I needed some distraction. Here we go:

'99 M900

Sil Spagetti Headers, Sil/NCR Ti Round Pipes
Rizoma Rearsets, Billet Suspension Arch/Hoop, Penske 8983 rear shock
Nichols Motor Mount Bolts, Open Airbox, Nichols Flywheel, ER Racing Throttle
Rizoma Belt Covers, Clutch Cover, Clutch PP, Vee Two Cam Pulleys, Rizoma Oil Cooler Protector
Vee Two lightweight clutch hub and basket, DP slave Cyl, Brembo GP Masters, Spiegler Lines
Race Tech Fork Internals, CC top triple (soon to be replaced with IMA triple set)
Reverse Shift Lever, CC Clipons, Rizoma Fluid Reservoirs, German Clear-Glass Headlight
DP Gauges with Tach, wee little battery, dyna coils, CC sidestand, Ohlins Damper, under triple mount
Lots of little bits of carbon and billet, titanium and alu bolts in lots of places, stainless everywhere else

I have certainly omitted things, that was merely a top-of-the-head list









Winter Mod plans include making carbon fiber undertail and airbox to replace the plastic factor pieces, putting on the IMA triple set I have, possibly switching to a single front fluid reservoir for both brake and clutch (semi-common Bimota mod), staring at the VeeTwo cams I have and dreaming about putting them in, Ignitech Programmable Ignition (maybe) and getting the F out of law school.

I kind of went "ape-shit" on blinging out this Monster and have learned a silly amount about the bike and such. Anybody that needs a spare set of hands to do any wrenching, lemme know - I can bring some tools, beer, and hands over (fo' freeeeeeeee).  [moto]

I also not so secretely lust after an SS, the posted CR is not helping me out any either... 

SWEEET 



BTW--Your list of work on this bike is inspiring--many ideas
