Hi, just a quick note to introduce myself - 888906

I'm a Ducati tech at Flywheels in Sydney, prior to that Gowanlochs. I have just listed some items for sale which I have been accumulating for a Monster project, now no longer needed. Instead I am directing my efforts into building up a Bears F3 race bike Paso motor into a 888 Corsa Chassis.

So if theres any interest in the bits listed, you know where to find me.

Cheers
Mike

Shameless PLUG!

welcome Mike, how long have you been there with Rob?

888906 · June 16, 2009, 02:38:05 AM

Been at Flywheels since the new year, worked with Rob at Gowies for a couple of years before he defected. Of the five staff members at Flywheels, we all did our time there - including George ex Fraser's.

Its a happy workplace and a very thinly disguised Ducati service centre.

Cheers

Welcome 888906.

What sort of monster project were you planning? There are plenty on here.

Good to have someone on the inside of Flywheels.

It's all those camoflage-green bikes over the other side that hides everything!

I must admit, I was a little surprised to see no Monsters at all in there this morning, that's probably the first time I've ever seen that.

Hi Mike, welcome to the Oz Monsters, good to have you here!

Glad you made it here Mike,

Hope your parts get snapped up, be in soon to check out the item I'm after.
Hope it will fit being a pre-2000 bike and mine being a post model.

I think I know you, but you would'nt remember me.

You did a service on my monster a couple of years ago and one of the cams shit itself at the keyway, you bunged in some secondhand 900ss units.

Welcome Mick.

Sorry Mick, I cant remember that job, I'm sure I would as its unusual. I think you have me confused with someone else

G'day all , a West Aussie here, just bought myself an 06 S2r 1000 yesterday with a few mods.
Looks like a good forum .
The bloke i bought the bike off was running open belts , so if anyones got any covers laying around that they want to get rid of , let me know.

Cheers , Dave.

Jukie · July 11, 2009, 05:40:09 PM

g'day Dave, i'm sure the guys here will be able to help you. welcome

ps. you will need specific dual spark belt cover to fit. not sure if anyone here has any, but wait and see.
