It's a ripping bike! I couldn't agree more about personal choice, a bike should fit your personality like a glove. We all have our quirks and a good fitting bike will cover all those characteristics. The looks of your Monster are astounding and your part choice adds to it!

@jamsxr 6 лет назад

Whilst KTM and Aprilia win the performance battle, Ducati certainly know how to put together a premium bike, stunning!

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers Jim, also I can always have a ride on my mates Tuono factory and my bro’s SDR 👍

@jamsxr 6 лет назад

I’m sure for most riding conditions the Duc is equally capable 👍

@henz993 6 лет назад

Drooling! This is an amazing monster with all of my favorite accessories from the brands.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers buddy, it’s great to jazz up your bike to make it bespoke to you 👍

@simul808 6 лет назад

The hoses look like that because of the wax which is used in the rubber permeating to the surface. It is used in the compound to combat ozone cracking as the rubber ages. Rather than trying to get rid I would just cover it with something like ACF -50 as you mentioned below. Lovely lovely machine by the way and great video.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers mate, will try ACF50 on the hoses later today 👍

@mxcostadelsol3651 5 лет назад

amazing job,well done,your bike look great

@nightclubpeople2077 6 лет назад

Welcome to your new bike and what a great choice, it’ll do everything you want so the AT may become history!! Have fun!!

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers mate, will still use the AT in any shit weather and commuting, bring on the nice weather so I can get out on the Monster 😜

@felipe-nt-d 5 лет назад

Super nice bike, I love the mods you've added to it. Smashing!

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 5 лет назад

Cheers buddy, it’s a great bike 👍

@mrbrown4451 6 лет назад

Good to see you back, been getting impatient... looking forward to more new episodes throughout this year.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers mate, clocks change this weekend so weather should hopefully get better too I hope 👍

@mrbrown4451 6 лет назад

Stumbled across your Vlogs after googling CB500X in December 17 after returning to the biking world and now own a 500X which is undergoing Rallyraid conversion... as I watch more vids there are about 20 bikes I want to own... keep up the entertaining work, You kind of remind me of the Alan Partridge of the Biking world but with a little more taste..

@kmfiz 6 лет назад

Beautiful bike, awesome mods, but I wanted to hear that thing. Staying tuned.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers buddy, you can hear mine and my mates with different pipes in my latest vid, thanks for watching, GMAN ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OPes2QkeKfA.html

Nice ! Thanks for sharing. Really enjoyed it. 😊🥇

@chrisskinner4434 6 лет назад

Stunning looking bike Grant, the man cave in the background is looking pretty tidy as well, looks well set out bud.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Thanks Chris, Garage getting sorted slowly, been too cold lately to be in there sorting things, roll on spring time 👍,

@AB-nt4ic 6 лет назад

Nice Video good job.... Monday I'll pick up my new Monster 1200S :-)

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers buddy, awesome you are getting a new Monster, good luck picking it up, you will love it although 600miles of running it in is painful as you want to give it full beans 😜

@John-hf1ig 6 лет назад

Beautiful bike and looks even better with all the changes.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers mate, just want to ride it now 😜

@gamingvelociraptor8865 5 лет назад

Fantastic video and bike.Subscribed.

@utterlycutterly1 6 лет назад

Just subscribed to your channel really enjoy your videos great stuff man 👍🏻

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers mate, lots more fun vids to come when the weather improves 👍

@Ducati297 6 лет назад

Hey, you can clean your hoses with the "meguiar's ultimate black" it works pretty well on my Monster 1200 R. You can use it on your hoses and plastic parts too.

@oetken007 5 лет назад

The hoses does look nice again when you apply silicone-spray.

@jamesmelendez4549 5 лет назад

Excellent video. Bikes are extremely personal machines as you indicated. I'm looking at getting a street fighter bike in the next few yrs so I've started looking around. I'm in my 50s now so full on sport bike is just to uncomfortable lol lol. I was looking at the KTM, APRILIA and BMW but your video opened my eyes to Ducati. Thank you. 👍

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 5 лет назад

Glad my video was of some use James, I’m late 40’s and done with sportsbikes too, I need comfort and speed at my age 😜

@tockblade 4 года назад

James Melendez check out the Ducati SuperSport. Looks mean, fun and comfy as hell. I am 41 and commute 80 miles a day no issues.

@dougie1325 6 лет назад

That is a very nice Monster. You always fit nice extras to your bikes. I’m with you on Evotech, they are awesome. I’ve fitted their stuff to my Speed Triple. That has to be one of the smallest huggers I’ve seen. Each to their own but I think I would fit some bar end mirrors or swap them out for Rizoma.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers buddy, my mate has bar ends on his 1200S so will ride his and see what I think, it is a very small hugger I agree and silly money to have it in carbon but I couldn’t resist! Evotech is superb quality and lasts the test of time too 👍

@chrismurray3198 6 лет назад

Clean the hoses with silicon spray works a treat. Muc silicone spray is the best IMO just spray on and leave to dry then wipe over.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Good advice buddy, cheers, it does work and now they are not perfect but loads better 👍

@rapidres5496 6 лет назад

Looking well!!!! Loving the discreet mods. With all the horrible little stones on the road i advise you look into ventureshield. Its s clear film to protect the paint work. I have had it applied to my tuono.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers mate, may go for some venture shield on the tank, will look into it!

@capovitt83 6 лет назад

She looks really gorgeous!!! Congrats from Italy 👌

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers buddy, am loving the monster, just need to get her run in when the sun next comes out 🏍💨👍

@andywozza2079 2 года назад

Looks fantastic 👌

@TheStp77 6 лет назад

I chose the sdr but man that is one gorgeous machine!! My next bike for sure

@ThePolymath1 6 лет назад

Try 303 UV protectant on your coolant plumbing. Keeps the pipes black on my old 900S & 1299S. 🤙🏼

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

God shout buddy, cheers! Will look Into that 👍

@jhstony 6 лет назад

Great to see another monster rider, maybe catch you at a ride out sometime this year, I live in Norfolk.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hey buddy, we always do a few rides to the north Norfolk coast every year, will try and give everyone a heads up when we go as would be great to meet up 👍😅

@nickb638 6 лет назад

Well done man! This is exactly what I have done. However, I disassembled the headlight, to have the headlight surround powder-coated in black to match the rest of the bike and it looks a bit better I think, as there isn;t really anywhere else on the bike that has that grey, the black is nice.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers buddy, great idea on powder coating the headlight surround has hot me thinking 👍

@alexcook9654 6 лет назад

Stunning bike! Definitely fancying one myself with similar options

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hi Alex, Thanks for watching, can definitely recommend the Monster as loving mine more each time I ride it, just fitted rizoma bar end mirrors that look great, cheers, GMAN

@Somkatoozi 4 года назад

Beautiful bike mate. Nice video as well.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 4 года назад

Thanks mate, got a bit addicted to added new parts but it did look great 👍

@Toni69696 6 лет назад

Bella bella...Looks great!!! Really nice job.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers Anthony, my next video features my new Rizoma bar end mirrors which I love 👍

@Truncali82 5 лет назад

Beautiful bike! Excellent choices in upgrades. I own a Suzuki SV650n which embodies many of the same qualities as the Monster. Unfortunately I find the SV to be underpowered for highway riding and although the SV is a great bike and highly upgradable there is no way to bring it to the level of refinement that Ducati offers. One day I hope to own a Ducati Monster similar to yours. Thank you for sharing.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 5 лет назад

Thanks for watching buddy, can recommend the Monster 100%, cheers, GMAN

@gonnahavemesomefun 5 лет назад

Absolutely stonking video, great mods, love the organisation of the parts and the walkthrough, a bloke after my own heart the way he looks at the detail. Controversially I'd love to see what the Monster is like with dropped bars, to drop the look from a sit up and beg. I know it's the streatfighter look but I've seen a few streetfighters with slightly dropped bars and it makes a subtle difference. I haven't ridden for 15 years ha so I can't talk, started looking at the Monster having always wanted one (I ended up with an X11 back in the day but always lusted after the Ducati). Thanks G-Man this video is literally a shopping list for me. I would buy that exact bike if I could! Cheers.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 5 лет назад

Thanks so much mate for the lovely comment, it’s people like you that make it worth my while making the videos! I’ve added bar ends to my bike now which gives it a more street fighter look, cheers Gman 👍

@gonnahavemesomefun 5 лет назад

G-MAN, I saw that you had sold it! Gutted for you but I’m on the hunt for one. Subscribed! Keep up the great vids Cheers!

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 5 лет назад

Still got the Monster buddy, it’s about to either go into Cambridge Ducati showroom on sale or return or bike trader next week, am lowering the price by £500, email me for more info if you are interested mate, no pressure 👍

@gonnahavemesomefun 5 лет назад

G-MAN, I’m emailing!

@dougie1325 6 лет назад

What you said at the end about people asking why you bought the Monster and not a super naked. I agree with you and the same reason I went for the Speed Triple R, enough power for me, with a quality build and great all round bike. Shed loads of low end torque and smooth progressive power. Can be a hooligan if you want it to be and a pussycat if you don’t.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers mate for u understanding what I meant, so many great bikes to choose from and different bikes suit different people and it’s what ever floats your boat 😜

@smiler2934 Год назад

Bike looks stunning,just bought an 821 as a second bike,wondering if I should have gone for the 1200 ? Saying that it’s my first Ducati and I’m hooked…

@draegus0072 6 лет назад

Have you thought about the Ducabike Clear Clutch Cover? I have the 2017 grey 1200S and love mine...

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hi mate, may change the clutch cover at a later date, nice to add new parts as you go along! Do like the grey monster, got such a mega deal on my red one I couldn’t resist 😜

@baderalmoayed9418 6 лет назад

Hi, great looking bike gave me some ideas for my future 1200s I plan to buy. The R version had a steering damper do u feel or recommend to fit it on the S. Thanks

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hey buddy, great you took inspiration from my video, bet you are very excited to be getting your Monster? I do think the steering damper should be fitted as standard and is lots of money to retro fit! Having just spent a week riding in the Pyrenees on my Monster I can safely say I never had any scary front end moments as the roads were so smooth by when riding in the U.K. I’ve had a few moments were I think a steering damper would of helped as the roads are very bumpy! So depends how good the roads are where you live and if you want to spend £600 on one, good luck with the new bike, cheers, GMAN

@malucci007 6 лет назад

Hi for your hoses try silicon spray from liqui moly it protects and turns black not too glossy, really improves looks and protects.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers David, I give that a go as sounds just what I need 👍

@kikishake798 6 лет назад

My dads got me to watch you. Love it

@reerbaadia1896 6 лет назад

kiki shake How many dads do you have? Modern family I guess.

@Entropik69 6 лет назад

Tell your dads to watch films about engine. To know the piston moves in a cylinder...not in an exhaust pipe (if you know what I mean).

@Fraanch 6 лет назад

You should look into ceramic coating your headers, makes the bike look alot nicer imo. A great addition would also be the ducabike clear clutch cover. Beautiful bike, very jealous. I wish you many enjoyable miles. I'm most likely getting the yellow 821 as my second bike.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

That’s a great idea mate, I loved the 821 when I made a video of it, I wish they did yellow for the 1200 😜

@rapidres5496 6 лет назад

Also are you taking your bike to Jacca this year. We heading out in vans on the 20/6/18

@hxgianni1 6 лет назад

Nice upgrades ! About the rusty chain is obviously that it has '0' lubrication on it, I clean mine yesterday and let it dry over night and it already start to show tiny bits of rust. I have never have rust problems on my Monster chain, I'll keep with maintenance on it...

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers buddy, yes as soon as I cleaned and lubed it the rust has gone, the crap they put on at the factory is like a rust magnet I think, I clean and lube every 200miles without fail, OCD has something to do With that I think 😜

@matmiller5256 3 года назад

Lovely looking bike ! Enjoy !

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 3 года назад

Cheers mate, sold it years ago 😉

@campbellhill86 6 лет назад

love the parts! just picked up my first bike(Monster 659 2014). Just some bar-ends(mirrors) on that and you're done! ;)

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Great you have a monster as your first bike, you will love it 👍🏍💨💨

@campbellhill86 6 лет назад

G-MAN'S Bikes & Bits already do mate! After just two rides. Can’t wait for the time when I’m unrestricted and can take a look at the big sister!;) your bike is amazing!

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Brilliant you are loving your bike mate! You will soon be moving up the Monster range in no time don’t worry, great to gain experience too then move up the power ladder 😜

@aplysianlabs3324 5 лет назад

sexy bike mate, good work

@saddle8bag 6 лет назад

There's something to be said for a man who'll spare no expense! Looks great man. Don't you have to remap it when you decat it? You might try Flexidip on the hoses. It's just rubberized paint you can spray right on them. If it doesn't look good you can just peel it off.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers buddy, when Ducati fitted the Termi pipe it comes with its own map key so all good! Thanks for the flexibility tip, have cleaned them up and they are now looking much better 😜

@jedi1793 Год назад

Wowwww I agree for all your upgrades

@MsDenver2 3 года назад

Very good makes the bike stand out , are you going to fit sliders and protection just in case?

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 3 года назад

Sold it ages ago!

@simontucci8170 5 лет назад

Lovely bike mate, I'm slowly modding my 1200 in a very similar way. Just a question, are the LED indicators the same part number front and rear? They appear exactly the same, but I've found heaps of conflicting information on the net and it's done my head in!

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 5 лет назад

Hi mate, not sure on the indicators, best bet to call up Your local dealer 👍

@Asgardsrei 6 лет назад

Get KochChemie PlastStar for the hoses. I’m using it for my 821. you have to re-apply it every now and then but it looks good

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

I’ll check that out mate. Cheers 🍻

@simonpennington 6 лет назад

Beautiful bike, I need a test ride on one soon

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers Simon, look forward to hearing how you get on with the test ride 👍

@renatopadilhas 6 лет назад

You should let yor bike your way! That's nice the way it is. Congrats from Brasil, man.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

@CPUspeed 6 лет назад

Love the 1200S and if I had the money thats how I would fit extra parts. Not sure if I have heard of evotech before, but I know them now, thanks.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers mate, it’s about making a bike your own, and you will love Evotech, makes R&G look a bit rubbish 😜

@AlexanderHonsVonEber 6 лет назад

Have you considered the motodemic headlight? Heard it’s pretty amazing.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hey buddy, never heard of that make, will look into it 👍

@duca_red 6 лет назад

Hi mate, did the tire sit on a red bike stand, so you can’t turn wheel around? Or tire-wheel can spin round and you can easy clean bike chain for example..?

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Stand was perfect mate, tyre well clear of the ground, although did fit the handle section the other way around to give more ground clearance 👍

@rickbanks9748 6 лет назад

Lovely bike, nice upgrades. Where did you get the smaller plate from?

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers Rick, the plate came from www.a1showplates.com/creator.html?registration=YOUR+REG&type=show&submit=&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI5JfQ36qZ2QIVzbDtCh0IIAeXEAAYAiAAEgIppPD_BwE

@mikestewart7322 6 лет назад

Hi Grant, the bike is stunning. Love all those mods, exactly what I would have done. I saw the vid when you picked it up and there was only salt dust on the road, so to get that level of corrosion after a short ride home is rubbish. So the last thing that needs to be swapped out is that poxy chain. It would just irritate me to ride the bike knowing that a bit of cheap sub standard kit is letting the bike down. So for the price of a high quality(? Rental or similar) chain, under £100, the whole bike is spot on. Think you’ve got no chance with the original if it starts off like that. You know it makes sense.👍🏻🏍😱

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Good advice mate, will get them to swap it at the service and I’ll provide the new one 👍

@gra271 2 года назад

Very nice !

@lumazzoni 6 лет назад

I need a hanger for my Monster 821. 2018 and I wonder if that will fit as I have the same exhaust as you do

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hey mate, looks like Evotech do a hanger for your monster 👍 evotech-performance.com/collections/ducati-monster-821-motorcycle-parts/YEAR_2018

@SennaF1GP 6 лет назад

Nice ride bud. I have a 2015 Monster 1200 S Stripe. The stripe comes with lots of carbon parts, but I want to do all the up grades that you have done. So far I haven't changed anything and I love the bike. Thinking of doing the full Termi exhaust, but I know that's quite a few dollars here in Canada. Once again nice ride my friend. Cheers.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers Don, it does get addictive adding parts to your bike, but that’s what makes it special to you, termi pipes are not cheap but the look and sound amazing 😜

@SennaF1GP 6 лет назад

HAHAHA! Yes the addiction is real, but I can think of a lot worse things to be addicted to. Once again thanks for the informative vid and I will keep watching for anything new. CIAO!

@mrbluecat007 3 года назад

Try a bit of wd 40 on the hoses wipe some on leave it for a few mins and give it rub..

@ElusiveMasquerade 6 лет назад

I like the tank pad the way it is, please leave it as is. It looks really cool. Nice bike, :-)

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Getting used it it, although as it’s so wide the edges are starting to lift up, may still change it at some point 😬

@nicodifrancesco5843 6 лет назад

Dude once you've cleaned the bike, put some silicone dedicated oil or tyre silicone, wich you can get in grocery store, in car and accesories section, to bring back that shiny black colour. The same with brake and clutch hoses mate. Wonderful bike!

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers Nico, that’s sounds a great idea, 👍

@CarlosSilva-wn8qq 3 года назад

Hi GMAN’S, I have a question and hope you can help me. I own a BMW s1000r 2017 and I’m planing to traed it in for a used 2018 monster 1200s like the one you used to own. Can you advise what you think and maybe tell me the bad things about the monster also. Thanks so much, and happy New Year!

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 3 года назад

Hey Carlos, not much I can say bad about the Monster, it was my perfect bike, thing is I now own the super duke R and that’s better in most ways than the monster, any way go for the monster as you will love it, the only thing thinking beck to my monster was that it shook its head when you gave it the beans and if I had of kept it i would of fitted a steering damper as for some odd reason it doesn’t have one as standard, happy new year to you too mate 👍🏻

@sammylambert2689 6 лет назад

I have the OEM rear-sets and passenger pegs from the Monster R. Do you think they will fit on my 2017 Monster S with the quick shifter?

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hi Sammy, I’m guessing they would fit but best ask your local dealer just incase, sorry couldn’t be more help! Cheers, GMAN

@vothuat 2 года назад

Nice video. Could you please tell me the part code of the two pairs of led turn indicators for the front and the rear? Are they have the same part code and also plug and play? Thanks alot.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 2 года назад

Sorry mate no idea, sold that bike years ago 😎

@Lar308 6 лет назад

Impressed. How is it that your warranty is unaffected by all these mods. Here (in Ireland) they will use any excuse to invalidate your warranty and the insurance will do the same to invalidate your insurance. So I done no mods to my 821 over that. You should try some acf50 on the hoses. It keeps mine looking like new for a few weeks. Although that mysterious white residue does not appear on mine. Perhaps you should look at them being replaced under warranty as its obviously some fault with the exterior finish. I got a new exhaust fitted to mine under warranty simply because the black paint started flaking off - and similarly the left side engine cover paint finish was starting to bubble - also replaced under warranty. Just one other point - the white stripe on the tank might be difficult to fit now unless you remove your existing tank guard. Then I would recommending leaving it off. The white stripe with one of these tank protectors looks terrible.

@mamertofernandez8709 5 лет назад

beautyful x 1000, just one thing I didn't like, the turn light, the design it's like not accurate to this bike... this is just my point of view... congrats for your excellent bike! greetings from Argentina

@Ben10twentytwo 6 лет назад

Nice looking bike mate! I use 'Mucoff motorcycle protect' after cleaning and it makes all the hoses and plastics look like new.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Good advice Ben, will check that product out 👍

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hi mate, use ACF50 on my Africa Twin do I’ll try it on the hoses, good advice 👍

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Sounds good 👍

@Ben10twentytwo 6 лет назад

G-MAN'S Bikes & Bits yeah I use acf50 in winter but find the mucoff stuff easier to use for the rest of the year as it's not as thick.

@perilask 5 лет назад

Hey, the motorcycle looks really stunning! I'd love to know how you pinned the license plate without screws

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 5 лет назад

Hi mate, the license plate came with double sided sticky pads so I just used them 👍

@perilask 5 лет назад

Thanks for quick replay :) Simply sticky pads? And the number plat is not falling apart at high speeds?

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 5 лет назад

Solid as a rock mate, even at very high speeds!

@topgun8683 6 лет назад

Bike looks good with the new upgrades, did you remove and replace everything ?

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hi Thomas, I did a deal with Ducati to fit all the parts for me, they are all easy to fit except maybe the levers could be a pain but I was too busy to fit them myself, or maybe just too lazy 😜

Re the hoses - have you had the bike ACF50'd? I find that ACF50 if it gets on hoses it tends to leave them looking that way. I do have a product from my brother that I'm not sure what it is but it does clean them with one treatment and then a second treatment returns them to black. v Nice bike though!

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hi mate, I use ACF50 on my Africa Twin but not on the Monster, they come like that from the factory, have ordered some autoglym rubber and plastic spray to try, fingers crossed it will work! Cheers, GMAN m

Are you happy with the stock mirrors? They seem to be improved over earlier models.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hi there, they worked fine but looked like Micky mouse ears! Checkout my latest vids as now have bar end rizomas 😜

Nice bike. I can totally see where youre coming from with regards to choice...its what you like. Same for me....got a few bikes including a Ducati (Hypermotard 1100 evo sp) but my naked of choice is the gen4 z1000 - owned it for 4 years now and i love it. No plans to change it, if anything itll be getting more updates soon (with a full system and air filter once theyve been mapped and flashed they make nigh on the same as an s1000r). My only gripe with Ducati is their finish (youve had one already) but ive found the coatings are a waste of time (paint peels, bolts corrode, the chain!) 2 years on from owning mine im still getting parts recoated (engine casings have just been done). Front barrel will be coming off soon for the same treatment. Whoever is in charge of fixings and fittins at Ducati either hasnt seen rain or needs firing. Pronto.

I know what you mean buddy, lucky for me my Monster will never see any bad weather, I use my Africa Twin everyday and even that is getting messed up even with constant cleaning! Went to Ducati yesterday as a warning light came up on my dash, turned out to be that the Bluetooth module doesn’t like my iPhone 10! And the chain is like new again after I cleaned it but not good it was rusty after just a 5mile ride on dry roads 😳 , cheers, GMAN

@comfysofa1549 6 лет назад

Heh - yeah - thats my point....even if you keep it garage queen dry itll corrode. Ive had chicken dinners that have lasted longer than some of the bolts....if youre planning on keeping it id suggest changing everything from the ground (literally) upwards with either stainless or Ti. Its definately them (ducati) i also have an old rsv4 factory pre aprc) with 12k on the clock that has faired way way better than the hyper (hyper has 10k and is a year newer). Ive found for coatings Cerakote and Xylan are amazing...literally everything proof. Ive got a project ktm 525 supermoto thats been rebuilt from the ground up and coated in regular powder coat and Xylan and 3 years on from the build it looks like brand new.

Beauty Queen. Put some Highsiders mirrors on the low side and it's a real hooligan bike.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Cheers mate, may change to bar end mirrors at some point, my Bro has high sider ones on his SDR 👍

Question: I had an accident on my 2015 Monster 821. What I need now is a Rear set (Left and right), Do you think the 1200R (Not S) parts would fit my 821?

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 4 года назад

Sorry mate no idea, guessing only your local DUCATI dealer will now that question 😬

@cafferacerchannel 6 лет назад

I think the black hoses should be cool with red Samco Sport hoses. I believe there is Matt black colour as well.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hey buddy, will definitely change them if I cannot make them look better, and Samco will be where I go 👍

@michaelj.kastner5165 6 лет назад

Samco makes silicone hoses that are color for that bike

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

If I cannot clean the hoses up I’ll definitely get samco ones 👍

@samharris8299 6 лет назад

Try cherry blossom shoe polish for the hoses. I used it to change my dash in my t4 from grey to black 👍

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Worth a go mate, thanks for the help 👍

Hi mate, love the bike! What size is your number plate, and how did attach it? Looks super clean.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hi Ian, it’s 7x5 and just stuck it on with sticky pads the plate came with, think I used this company/ cheers, GMAN www.myshowplates.com/number-plate-designer.asp?gclid=EAIaIQobChMItqabpaK_2gIV7ZTtCh2-mAJREAAYASAAEgL1g_D_BwE

@grumpy_pi7993 4 года назад

Nice Bike !!!! Just fitted the evotech tail tidy on my 821 , what size is the number plate you’ve put on yours ?

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 4 года назад

Thanks Paul, I always fit 7x5 inch plates to my bikes as small enough but not silly small, enjoy the 821, cheers, Grant

@alexanderschutt3301 6 лет назад

have you comfort seats?? and do you know if the exhaust you have sounds better then the standart exhaust??

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Hi Alex, Seat is standard one, and yes the Termi pipe is way better sounding than the stock one and looks better and weighs less too 👍

@bongyakwui 5 лет назад

Lovely bike

@oetken007 5 лет назад

What tail section is it? I could not find it on Evotechs website. It looks better then all other models I've seen so far!

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 5 лет назад

It’s an evotech one buddy, should be on their site 👍

@worldtraveler8613 3 месяца назад

I have the werkes competition exhaust on my 821 and I have never heard a meaner exhaust. Everyone gets termignoni but they can't possibly sound better. My Ducati now sounds like a Harley and even crackles and pops on throttle blips. And it's LOUD.. maybe too loud even 😬

@mickynicky82 6 лет назад

Some red samco hoses will definitely top it off, hopefully they do some !

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Will look into the Samco hoses mate 👍

@daveeccles7957 6 лет назад

Looking sharp mate I'm interested in the sticker kit you have on order may put it on my 2014 1200s

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Will do a vid when the stickers arrive mate, 6 week lead time on the order, crazy, although do need warm weather to apply them anyway 😜

@scandimc 6 лет назад

Can you make a comparison video between the monster 1200 and the superduke?

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Will do buddy, maybe get together with my Bro soon, if not will do a shootout whilst in Spain with him 👍

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 5 лет назад

With a hairdryer buddy, very easy to get off 👍

@patrickhd34 6 лет назад

Lovely bike & bits. Made me laugh when you mentioned your chain. I have spent loads of time trying to keep my stock chain rust-free, (2017 Monster 1200). Gone through loads of Wurth chain stuff. Only option is to get a better chain. Decent chain about £150. Only regret...not going for the 1200 S. Ohlins worth the price alone. Also stock indicators cheap & nasty, went for the performance ones too.

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Agree mate, funny thing is the monster chain is a high quality DID chain just seems to rust at any sign of water, maybe a gold DID chain would be better. Any way I only ride the monster in the dry, I use the Africa Twin in shit weather 😜

@GMANS_BIKES_CARS 6 лет назад

Ps, only real reason I went for the S model was the Ohlins setup 👍
