So, last I left off in Monster Project blog updates… I couldn’t find all the important bits for the rear wheel and attaching it to the bike. Axle, spacers, etc. I ripped apart my garage and stayed up until 5a putting it back together and just couldn’t find them.
Submission from Roxxi O’Hara- I was privileged to ride the track at MOTO GP Austin last weekend with a bunch of very kewl Ducatistas and met this very sweet young lady named Stephanie from Houston. Always refreshing to see a Moto Lady…makes me smile. Stephanie clearly knows the joys of motorcycling, what a beautiful smile! Proud of her early Ducati Monster, perhaps?Thanks Roxxi!
Yuuuup I made a rookie mistake, I put the half bushings on the inside upside down I think. Oh well, fix it and move on!
In lieu of a full Monster Project update (which is desperately past due), I wanted to share a photo I snapped yesterday after the seat was chopped.
I put my motorcycle in my car. Not just a car, but a coupe! Well, strategically place all the pieces, boxes, wheels, and bits in the right spots. Observe.
We’re going back in Monster Project time for a moment to the process of actually removing my cush drive rubbers.
Two gnarly bruises and a gimpy right hand… my wheels did not escape the exploding tire fiasco unscathed. However, I got off lucky.
Attempting to mount my tires on the Monster Project wheels today, and the Pirelli Sport Demon tire exploded.
