I CAME !!!

I love the lighting in the pics too (I'm a photo nerd...).

The allure of the Ducati is strong. I want to make love to the tailpipe of that bike! Beautifully done.

i used to be IN LOVE with the 916/748 when they first showed pics in the mags.. Now I think they look like some kinda weird flounder. Your friend did a AWESOME job on his tho.

 

[joonyaboy]

THAT is beautiful. I'm all about red-framed Ducs

 

[hoser]

I think I'm in love!

Ken from Superbike Italia is a great guy. He set up my suspension at Barber, and I bought him case of beer.

I think he setup BC's rear end after a case of beer...

 

[mr.croom]

I also got him into trouble with his wife because we were watching RedTube on his Iphone. :rotflmao:

[Maybe] I am a dick, but after reading the page and seeing "11 months later" everywhere, I expected more. I also liked the yellow much more.

Either way, nice bike.

lol...to each his own. i just have to ask what more could have been done with it?? every single nut and bolt has been removed and either cleaned or replaced. and that paint job, well the pics dont do it justice. in person its like a mirror finish. oddyseys paint is 2nd to none my friend.

It has to be exactly as ducati intended or sky will not approve.

Nah, that's not true...but all I can see in the pics is that he color-coordinated the thing. It looks alright, but it's not my cup-o-tea, so it seems like a silly way to spend that kinda money and time, especially when there's so much truly bad ass stuff out there for the 916. Take that money, keep the OEM paint scheme, and drop in a 955 kit with worked crank and rods from Fox Performance, mag braced swingarm, mag 10-spoke wheels, some little CF accents...I mean you'd have a much better bike for the same amount of money and MUCH less manual labor. IMO. :dunno:

very well done, looks awesome

I would spend money on performance upgrades LONG before Aesthetics.
