Started out as a 1990 900 SuperSport. I bought it incomplete in parts in 2001, working on it since then. I call her “Shyster”, because she’s an SS with an ST3 engine, so basically an SS3. That was the Nato code for a Sowjet nuclear missile. Fitting, because on of my favourite tracks around here is built atop a former Sowjet air field (Groß Dölln).

I fell in love with this bike when I saw it in the movie Tron Legacy. Always wanted one and finally sold everything I owned to buy one last Autumn. Rode it once and the low bars nearly killed me!

Ive added:
-ST3 clip ons
-Longer brake lines
-Fleda
-New dry clutch pressure plate/springs and open clutch cover
-New grips
-Alloy reservoir lids

It's now easier to ride and sounds great 😊

2020 Multistrada 1260 Pikes Peak
Mod - Ohlins steering damper
Ducabike gp shift
Rizoma peg
Evotech oil cooler, radiator guard and frame slider
I took it for track day last weekend. It’s fun and fast. But there was false neutral between 2nd and 3rd gear. Not sure its because of gp shift.
What's your impression of the Ohlins steering damper? How much of a difference has it made in your opinion. I have a 2017 MS 1200S and was considering the mod. Thanks

This has been a very fun bike to ride around the track. Was able to license up and will be competing with this bike in May. Was definitely different getting it to turn in but now that I figured it out I see why Ducati is such a weapon. This thing rails and carrries a very good corner speed. Can’t wait to race excited.

This is my Carbon Dream. The first photo is on Ducati Island at Laguna Seca, WHEN WE HAD A REAL MOTOGP IN AMERICA! I WANT IT BACK!
The second photo is at the Isle of Man. That's David Hailwood with my MH. He was going to ride it in the lap of honor. When the time came Honda pulled his Dad's winning Honda out of the factory Museum and sent it to the TT. He said he was very sorry and I couldn't possibly blame him for wanting to ride the bike his Dad actually won on. Lucky for me. As he was leaving Ramsey he got target fixation and rode his Dad's bike straight into a stone wall. Broke the bike in half and he broke his collar bone. That's me in the middle talking to somebody from Honda that was with him.
The third photo is at COTA MotoGP. You get extra credit if you know who's on the Jumbo Tron.
