Some of you may remember my 1996 Ducati M900 Monster that I sold to gain capital for the 05 Gixxer 1000 purchase. http://www.twowheelforum.com/photopost/direct_data/500/medium/309105_0506.JPG Old pic, new ones will be posted later. New pics http://www.twowheelforum.com/photopost/direct_data/500/medium/111_1163.JPG http://www.twowheelforum.com/photopost/direct_data/500/medium/111_1166.JPG http://www.twowheelforum.com/photopost/direct_data/500/medium/111_1168.JPG http://www.twowheelforum.com/photopost/direct_data/500/medium/111_1167.JPG I really didn't wont to sell it when I did and swore I would find another later. Now I don't have too.:willy: Due to my request at time of sale. The bike was offered back to me. The past owner is getting a newer version of same bike. I gladly bought it back. He even made some slight changes. He added a clear tail light, new bar ends, new rear tire, break pads, new fork seals and had the 30k service done. He only added another 2k miles over what was already on the clock and I got it all for just $200 more than what I sold it for. :whistle: :willy: Good thing I hadn't sold the stands that the wife bought me just for this bike.:angelhap:

However I thought your significant other limited you to a certain number of bikes?:scratch: In order for you to get a new one you had to get rid of one right? OR did she not have a policy about buying an old bike back? Sounds like you made out on the deal tho!:dthumb:

well that can't be too much for you! :lol: Living like hermits on welfare while we paid for the house helped allot. Back in those days. I only had one old bike, old beater truck while she drove a old car given to her by her parents. We hardly ever went to the movies or out to eat. After we got the house paid off. It was time to enjoy life.:willy:

Anyway...what is everything? I see the sides, and the rear fender eliminator... but what am I missing? Side panels, heal guards, rear hugger, chain guard and seat cover. I would still like to find some belt covers but, no luck as of time I sold the bike. Now That I have it back, the search will continue.:tt:

It has set side by side with world class litter bikes like the GSXR 1000 and Ducati 998 but yet it finds its way out of the garage so often. Its just that much fun to ride and you don't care how slow it is.
