QuoteGreat looking bike!  Save that pic and look at it in about 6 months... it'll look tons different after you get the mod bug in your system

+1.  I'm going on a year and still have some more mods to do. 


ShiftSix

Nice,  so I cant tell from your pic but is ur exhaust just dumped under the bike?   If so how is it? I would of figured they needed some backpressure to make power.? oh and how loud is it?   

I rode home next to a guy on a old triumph cafe style bike Black on black with the exhaust dumped under it and it was pretty loud but his bike looked pretty nice not sure if any of you know who he is.

ooohhh.... a monster mods page!
here's ours






oh, and.....It's loud!  [thumbsup]




ShiftSix

Yeah I would like something on my bike a bit louder than stock... but my neighbors are already touchy enough so too loud and I will never hear the end of it haha 


Plus still being in college Im not looking to break the bank on some exhaust... yet...   would some slip ons make much diffrence? If so who's would you recomend?  Im not really too concerned about power gains yet as im still a newish rider and this bike is plenty fast for me.

Mine isnt really all that loud.  I might core out the pipe to give it a little more dB points.

Whats up guys/girls, New to the forum, just picked up a new S2R1000 and love her.  living in the arlington area so if there are any local gtg's or what not Im down.   It would be cool to meet some local ducati riders

ShiftSix,

Welcome!  I'm glad to see you found your way over here.  You'll definitely find a lot of fellow Ducati riders with lots going on.  What part of Arlington - north or south?  I'm feeling like it may be time for a West-side dinner at BJ's Restaraunt and Brewhouse in south Arlington.  You all know how much I love BJ's!  [laugh]

Welcome ShiftSix, there are three Duc riders in Burleson to your west.  Tonight there should be a meet somewhere, Lisa wants to do Joe T Garcia's in Ft.Wrth, but I am sure we are open to an Arlington meet.  Sounds like Barnee is interensted. 

Check the Westie Happy Hour Tonight thread.

I can't stop putting mods on my 695, so wear gloves if you don't want the bug ;D [moto]

Hope to meet tonight or Sunday.

Wow, so that's what a stock one looks like. I had forgotten. They're right, it won't look that way for long. Glad you got a pic before the madness hits... modification madness that is. [thumbsup]

Interested, but out of pocket.  All day has been eaten up messing with the car and securing temporary transportation.  I'm in McKinney now with my brother who's been my taxi all day.  No flash mob for me tonight.  :'(
