I currently have a Ducati 848, but also wanted something to build as ''my own'', hence the reason buying this one. It already has different handlebars and headlight, which will stay on it for the time being.
Here is a list of things to buy/build: Always adding more items
Things already bought/waiting for:
- Aftermarket solo seat
- Aftermarket black brake/clutch levers
- New filters (oil, fuel and breather)
- New chain and sprockets (stock gearing)
- Aftermarket footpegs
- Battery
- Aftermarket number plate bracket
Left to do/buy:
- Basic tune-up of engine/carbs
- Custom rear subframe - V shaped
- Stainless steel brake lines and new brake pads
- Fit small chrome exhaust mufflers on each side (in a low position) - Got them with the bike
- Fit an aftermarket brake light
- Custom batt. tray under tank with all electrical components (currently has individual filters)
- Heatwrap exhaust manifold (Titanium)
- And more items will add up....
Paint/Powdercoat:
- Complete frame after modifications
- Motor (x)
- Rims/brakes/swingarm
- Front fork
- Tank/front fender/springs (all in same color - Brown metallic
- paint and clean ALOT of small things here and there
I always appreciate new ideas
On to pictures...
When I picked it up this week:
2 Hours after throwing it in the garage
Great work from some previous owner!
Cleaned the frame to get it ready for some custom work
Changed the color on the motor, gives it a meaner look overall when the bike is complete, and ofcourse new spark plugs
The carbs before and after some cleaning (color change, new hoses and clamps)
Situation in the garage at the moment
Currently working on it atm, I will keep you posted with more pictures as progress continues
