My project is done - the Monster lives!!

 

The bike was stripped down completely and reassembled. Engine is standard but overhauled. Could not have done it without help from Mike @ Kallang Cycle. Thanks, Mike.

Hi...so that is your bike. I have been there for a few times and saw your bike. It is a very nice project bike. When I send in my bike for full service on tues, see the end product...think this is the only one in Singapore.

Hi MotoCafe!

 

(Don't know if you still remember me, from Wheelers meetup) Quite nicely done! I finally get to see what you were talking about. Got to see the real thing.

 

How much did you spend on it?? It really feels great to bring something back to life!

Aiyo Vince, not tat i anti them lah, juz tat I cant afford them! LOLZ:cheeky:

[Guest nE0]

I think its worth the money.

 

Firstly, theres a discount on parts, which offsets the high labour cost.

 

Secondly, you can be assured they will do a good job too, first time. I've had bad experiences with other workshops, ending up having to do double jobs to repair the mess.

 

Simple things like oil change, tyre change, light bulb and all that can do anywhere. But when it comes to engine and electricals, I don't think I'll trust anyone else with my Ducati.

 

Just my view.

[coolcat]

Agree with Neo ... and plus ..... they are suppose to know the bike, man!

 

I like the Minerva way of charging, it's not arbitary, there's a job scale, so that everyone pays the same for the labour on the job, regardless whether it took a good mech less time or agreenhorn longer time to do the job.

 

Eh, non-ducati bike but ex-ducati rider can go meet up?

 

Cheers

I thought I saw a 400SS at Bukit Batok on a few occassions.

Maybe its a Japanese special edition, the licence plate indicates that its maybe more than 10 yrs old already....but still so chio and desirable.

Yes, the 400SS or a very similar bike was brought in by angmoh in the earlier 90s when i was riding my Steed.

 

I think the current owner is also an angmoh. it's red in color and the styling is quite outdated already but this is one rare baby.

Great meet up folks.

 

Sorry can't stay long and chat. Yohji has a great looking/sounding bike man.

 

Though I met a few new peeps, but dun know who is who. Except for 'popeye' smoking the pipe.

 

Lets do it again sometime.

[hart]

it's great meeting u guys..

hope to join u all on another bike next time..

[contacted]

*sigh* another problem.

 

Question folks, earlier on when I was riding to work my throttle acted weird. When I closed the throttle physically, 'internally' it wouldn't 'cut the throttle'. Means that I can turn the throttle back, but the engine is still being 'rev-ed'.

 

Is it something that some WD40 can help? Read that the manual recommends to lube the throttle area once in a while, or should I bring it to a mech?

[Duke_Monster]

lubing the throttle area should do fine..it happened to my mito once ...if cannot tht means sthm wrong with yr throttle cable most prob...
