Details: Having just ridden my wonderul and then new black (but as you can plainly see, dark metallic gray) 2000 Ducati Monster 900Si.e. 26 miles in eleven minutes following a Red 1997 Ferrari 550 Maranello on splendiferous Utah Route 95 northward, I paused for a group photo (me and the Monster) at Hite, Utah, having just finished breaking in the bike. June 2000.

Details: This bike was a project bike from the very beginning. That is, it didn't run when I bought it. It didn't take much do get it running and before long, the customizing began. It's got 944cc high compression pistons, 39mm flat slides carburetors, Leo Vinci carbon high pipes, Arrow clip-ons, DP rear sets, Yoyodine clutch slave, Storz steering damper, CRG billet mirrors, Kevlar lines, Chopped sub frame, custom paint and one-of-kind custom machined clutch cover by none other than ME.

Peter's Description: "Hmmm... as for description... I call it the anti carbon bike ;) I don't talk much you know (hope the black and steel theme of the bike speaks for itself), but here are some of the mods... 41T rear sprocket, clip ons, K&N's all around, pc3 w/ custom map (86hp), fender elim kit, custom turn signals, etc. The rest is just eye candy like the RR side covers, 70's style decals, ss breather tube, emmissions stuff stripped, vdo volt meter, etc..."
