My Monster 900 project begins!

[zooom]

Green....doesn't have to be anything slick, it can be a semi matte darker green in the vein but not directly aimed at British racing green with a white frame and dark motor and wheels and your hardware accents in red...

another idea....maybe pay homage to the flag of Bologna in terms of color scheme



a nice white frame with a blue tank and put the insignia lion holding the "Liberta" banner on the tank and do a subtle pinstripe set of the italian colors on black wheels....

just curious....


what kind of exhaust is that? looks pretty awesome.



that bronze color on the guzzi tank would make for an awesome monster. I'm thinking steampunk ducati

if you're going to do the frame blue do it in a deep metallic blue but contrast that with a dark sheen color for tank and such.  Personally I think a deep copper color frame with blacked out parts would be awesome.

Now that is an idea I do like, but I am gonna keep a budget on this build, plus the custom ST4 we are finishing up has a similar blue/silver look to it.

I'll have a real update with pics for you guys on both projects pretty soon.

Did somebody say something about a custom ST4 

[J-Speed Inc.]

Good luck with the project!

I'm also working on a 99 M900.  Currently waiting for carburetor and clutch parts before putting her back together.

How do building custom and budget fit in the same sentence?

How do building custom and budget fit in the same sentence?   

Not very easily... (especially if you've seen the stuff on our website!), but I'm trying none the less, and have settled on a Yellow frame, black swingarm/triples/motor, titanium-ish ceramic coat on the exhaust, yellow tank and bodywork, etc...

Everything is off at the powdercoaters now, painter starts in about 2 weeks, and the bike should be finished in about a month.



Ohh and the custom ST4 should be done in about a month as well.

[BellissiMoto]

Well after everything we decided to keep it somewhat simple and went with yellow powdercoat on the frame and a blacked out motor, triples, swingarm, etc...





Okay, so I definitely forgot about the whole "budget" concept a bit when it came down to wheels and brakes....

I know I'm a little late to the thread but that's a Quat D Ex Box...

[BellissiMoto]

Made some nice progress on her over the past couple weeks, stay tuned for more pics soon as we finish her up.

I'll have her 100% done and ride-able by the end of May for sure.

[BlackKat]

hahaha...I remember when we were talking about this....You used the words low budget!
