MHP for the exhaust.

Forks, Shock, Airbox, Rearsets & Bodywork - ring Rich @ Louigi Moto 07775 557797 or 01761 453366

[clockwork orange]

You could try Stuart at Spareshack for some of that, like exhaust, rearsets and rear shock.

Revalving at Maxton is best, but not cheap.

For 620s Neil Spalding at Sigma can help with all aspects of engine and chasis set-up. My 620SS has been as fast as anything out there this year (shame about the rider!) and Neil's feedback and guidance has been a great help with chasis set-up.

[Rushjob]

Or speak to Nelly at Cornerspeed just up the road in Kirkby.....
He's sorted out a number of DD bikes.....

Another shout for Neil Spalding here - quality work!

Nelly also does great work - spoilt for choice!

Here you go....

Exhaust end cans for monster and SS - eBAY - 750SS/900SS will fit but need cut and shut work.
Fork spec - Ktech will refresh and respring for good money. Front and rears.
Rear shock replacement or respring/revalve - as above.
Airbox mods - cut the top off the std one and fit and after market filter.
Rearsets - check with fil2, £120 I think for a set.
Bodywork - ricambiweiss in germany. or from ebay.de

I adapted rearsets feom other bikes for my #88 bike and also for Senna3's #3 bike both of which are Supersport models.
Hi level pipe, well Senna3's is a under seat job done by him self, mine isn't strictly a high level pipe but sweeps upwards along way to give loads of ground clearance, mine is fitted to standard down pipes using a Viper Exhaust link pipe available from Bike It and if you want one, or two even if you have a monster have a word with Scooter916 as he is a outlet for there stuff and rides bike #13 in DD

Hi Skid,
I don't remember, what frame you're running, SS or Monster? Maybe you can advice me on the cheapest way for me to find rearsets for my Monster. Do you think I could use SS(ie ?) rearsets as well?

Cheers
Tonio

Tonio your Englishe reading abilities is worse than I thought
Supersport = SS (NOT MONSTER)

Senna3's are a set of rearsets from a Fireblade that I adapted. Mine are based on Harris ones from a ZX9R.

Not sure which frame you have Tonio is it the early Monster frame based on the 851

Thats why both AK and Glyn both speak to my friend Lyn on the phone when ordering parts. About time we all tried to talk her into talking her other half Jim into entering DD.

Sorry mate... I thought you were saying the rearsets come from SS bikes. I tried to play rugby in England amongst English people yesterday, my brain is still out of order...

No idea. It's a year 1999 bike. But some friends of mine told me I can fit 888 rearsets, does it speak to you? If so I should better search 888 rearsets than asking if I can fit SS ones :lol::lol:

[skidlids]

Tonio here is a pic of both rear ends, the one on the left is the earlier one similar to a 851, the one on the right is from a 2002 monster and is similar to a ST

[phil_h]

I think the best option for rearsets is for us all to be nice to fil2's mate who made some neat ones for the SSes.
They are simple, robust and with easily replaceable parts.
It would be really easy to have different mounting plates to suit the monster.
If anybody wants pics of rearsets on an SS, an 888 or a monster, with dimensions to compare them ... I will go and take some, cos I have one of all of the above :bouncy: (well, sort of)

Cheers Skid.
My Monster(s) are like the left pix. So I assume the right pix matches the injected bikes, starting with the S4...

So it means the 851 / 888 have the same rearsets mounting points than my bikes?

[skidlids]

I can't be certain Tonio but I suspect you can use 851 based rearsets.

Heijira Racing owned and run by Derek Chittenden based at Manor Farm Gawcot, Bucks made Phils rearsets and no doubt he would make ones for monsters as well if he was given a pattern.
