What to do with your old Ducati Monster

[900Fantrider]

The Americans tried this but the frames kept snapping but Paul an ex Elefant owner built/had this built here in the UK to last (thumbs) Love it or hate it, what a project and there may just be a kit available soon B)

[XF650]

Like it! (thumbs)

XL in the background looks good too!

Someone has done something very similar with an SV650, which I suppose is basically a Japanese Monster. V Twin, trellis frame etc.

He went all out putting in an underseat fuel tank and everything. Interesting build.

I've seen the bike in the flesh......metal? Whatever.....I've seen it. (thumbs)
A great idea, a great build and the finish is up to the usual standards of CT Motorcycle Services, known as Tunneruk on here and the UKGSER forum. I think that there is a build thread over there, the title is il Bastardo.

He's the chap that did my Triumph Bobber for me. (thumbs) (thumbs) (thumbs)

Looks like an SL125 to me, nice early mini thumper.

It is indeed an SL. And just about to get some much needed TLC. A. 'Sympathetic' restoration. (thumbs)

I like dcati monsters, but imho this is just a wannabe :sick:

with all that squashed front forks and quite cheaply looking mods (do not care what the guy actually did with it) that it is no more than a cheap yankie suv and we all know what kind of people drive those :dry:

That's a bit harsh. How can you pass judgement on something if you're not interested in seeing what work went into it? Good of you to judge the owner without knowing him too :whistle:

BTW Can you enlighten everyone as to what kind of person drives American SUV's and on what grounds that you come to such an intelligent conclusion?
