This Is What I Ride Now

I returned to riding last year when I bought this 2002 US model Ducati Monster 620ie Dark it's an early 5 speed model with single front disc and had 7,677 miles on the clock and yes it needed attention and re-registering the tyres were well worn on the rear and just plain old on the front so a new set of Dunlop Sportmax GPR300 were purchased and fitted the handlebars were also changed, it had non original bars fitted that I found uncomfortable, it now has chrome touring bars which required new hydraulic lines for clutch and brake that were a real bitch to bleed though I have now sussed a much easier way to do this. I also removed the vapour cannister and will be getting a European side cover that does not have the bulge for it the right side cover is missing now as it flew off when I down the road when I was chasing some japsports bike up the hill from the next town/village ......... Whoops!

The 1st is with the new chrome touring bars fitted had not got new correct size bar end plugs yet. The 2nd is at the techical testing place for it's re-registration you can see with black wide low bars. 3rd as it arrived here the 4th photo was taken below the fortress in Veliko Tarnovo after it had been re-registered of course!
