Re: Cycle whore thread
Color? Hmmm...I like a creamy white.
Just remember time is money, and money is time. So if you spend a whole week having to fit those greek fairings you basically spent the extra 250 you could have for the other ones. Having pre drilled, fitted and cut out fairings is amazing instead of trying to fit a set on your own which you will fuck up your first time.
Go on the race forums WERA NESBA or AMA and ask people there what they like. They will point you in the best direction.

Shit good call, I'm going to get my brother to whip up a japanese style cute cartoon deal and some racing part names that match and cover the bottom half fairings with it before clear coat. Plus all the original ducati decals. I only need a little over a grand to finish this project....excited...

Re: Cycle whore thread
Just did an oil change on the bike. Was pleased to find a Scotts Performance Oil Filter (reusable stainless filter). Saved me $13 on my K&N filter.

Re: Cycle whore thread
Either way, kinda nice to see that the previous owner went all out on the bike as far as what was available for it. Aside from swapping front ends etc.
