Ducati Monster Walkaround and Mods 

Thank you for watching! 🙂 If you're interested in any of the parts seen on my bike, click the link and support the channel. www.motovationusa.com/?ldid=clutch1st

Bro, a week ago I saw your video, and you inspired me.. yesterday 26JUL2017 I bought a 2010 Ducati monster 696. I love it man, can't wait to start buying upgrades

Amazing machine..love your attention to detail with the mods..very nice

bro i still come and watch this video even after all the changes you've done- DinrossiandAce

Very good taste on upgrades. Be safe!

The Gas Cap and Timing Belt Cover stole my heart.

Awesome!! Beautiful video and beautiful bike! I am like you, I am a big fan of the natural machined look/color and would prefer something that wasn't painted over unless you are able to see the machining through the paint or if it was meant to be blacked out. I agree with your color choices with the reservoirs as it matched the red part of the frame of your bike. Some may say the video is a bit long, but it's definitely justified since you talked about each of the modifications pretty in-depth and gave your opinion on them as well. Absolutely love all the detail you've put into this bike...makes me want to take extra good care of the things I currently have as well haha. Your audio in this video was spot on, many people are audiophiles and really appreciate good clean and clear audio, and you definitely scored with that one. Awesome video, and I look forward to seeing more of them in the future.

@awesomevidguy1 Thank you man! I appreciate you checking out the walk around vid. Seeing the natural machining is really appealing to me. :)

BTW my tank is scuffed. I never put one on .. it has a nice patina now :) Excellent walk around of the bike very nice.

I was watching this, got to your Rizoma Turn Signals, went looking for them and went up, down, left and right, inside out on websites everywhere. I think I might have seen enough parts to build a complete bike. Ok.. I better watch the rest now

Ice BoNeZ Thank you man!!! I really took my time to make sure these upgrades will enhance the bike even more. :)

damn man good job on the bike. looks very clean. no cheesy stuff like a lot of people do. clean and stylish. would be cool if you could have took the camera further out towards the end so we can see the whole bike at once.

Cool bike & tasteful mods, Ive always loved the look of a single sided swingarm

beautiful bike! you have an eye for detail! mods are so clean and well thought out. you are a lucky man, so jealous!!!

Thank you for the tour of your bike. It was helpful and gives me ideas for my own bike.

I have a Monster 821, and next year I'm planing to change my tail tidy, mirrors and the slip-on to a competition werkes.

Very nice upgrades, kudos on exhaust and front end.

Stunning bit of kit there, good level of detail as well. Should probably do something similar with mine ha. I put my gloves on my carbon cans to keep them toasty when I stop for a little while :P Keep it up

bakerxderek sent me and i sub'd just by quality of vids alone man.

Hope to ride with you soon .. weather has been very cooperative lately. :) Subbed. Btw I need to get some stickers to return the favor. This has been an unusual summer so apologies. Thanks.

The reservoirs are clear so you can easily see the color of your fluids for maintenance.

I'm not really that big of a fan of Ducati but I gotta admit that you have one sexy bike. 👍🏼

Great looking bike and nice job on the video! Look forward to more vids

Oh mn give me that exhaust!!!!! wow thats some sexy ass pipes and sounds. I wonder if I can get them clear belt covers for mine, you got a hot machine

I love ducati rear fenders! !!

great looking bike, nice job.

very very beautifull bike Mike :D ... i like it so much, sounds better than gsxr .. nice description man

Where did you get your tail and seat? I was thinking of the Ducati Performance seat or replica by Carbonvani, but I was thinking this looks sweet too. I think I would get the seat reupholstered over the diesel seat, but the cowl, if they made it in white, and yours wasn't custom painted, I would be down to get that. Check out my bike too.

u need to do a new walk around video for 2019 talking about the changes and how u and the bike has evolved.

Now I know what you're riding, Lolz Nice bike

congrats. gorgeous bike.

hi there, great video, i love this bike. But i was slightly distracted by your watch.. ;) can you tell me what kind of watch that is? thanks

Wow, very nice! I wonder how much all the upgrades cost...

nice bike buddy!!

Beautiful bike, man! I'm pondering getting an 821 but just wondering if the same sort of upgrades are available? Thanks for the awesome vid.

This is amazing man! Great job

Nice vid man. Have an fz-07 really looking into monsters for my second bike. Love the way they look. You probably have the best looking Monster I have seen by far. By the way what riding pants were you wearing in the vid?

nice bike and nice watch! which watch is that?

Bike looks great. I have been looking for that same exact rear seat cowl from diesel, where did you find it? I've been looking everywhere for it.

Your ride is Dope AF!! It would be really nice if you could share the cost of all the upgrades.

hi, what exact rizoma bar did you bought? i own a 696 but there is alot of size and shape for rizoma bar , thanks

yo, your bike have ride-by-wire? I was told that Rizoma grips aren't compatible with RBW for my Monster 821.

what did you use to "plug" the screw holes from the stock mirrors?

Nice bike!!!May i ask you what the item model of risers and handlebar is? without incresing cluth line or other lines? thank you sir~

Hey, man. Love your vids. Is there any chance this is a 2014? If so have you had to take apart the forks? I'm going absolutely insane trying to figure out how to get my left fork taken apart with the stupid black rubber part attached to the top cap. Do you know if you've got to somehow get the black rubber part off? or is there another way that you're supposed to get it disassembled? I'm completely lost on the left fork after getting the top cap unscrewed from the outer tube, and I'm desparate. My bike has been apart for 3 days now for a stupid fork seal replacement.

I love your bike bro! this is @JoeyHovito

What a beast ! love it

Very very beautiful bike I am 12 and when I'm older I want a bike I want to moto vlog. And make gaming videos but that's besides the point I can't wait to get a bike and record

Thank you for taking your time and post model parts, Nice bike by the way

Hey man, I like what you've done with your monster. I recently bought a used monster and the rear view mirrors shakes quite a bit while I'm riding. How does the aftermarket rear view mirrors perform?

really nice mods, where did you get the Diesel parts?

Of course the price of the rizoma gas cap is not mentioned.

What are the Rizoma bar and the risers named? Thank you!

Please answer!! When you took off the front windshield did you buy a instrument cover because my 696 has exposed wiring under the instrument panel you can see the wiring from the front. Thanks

Please...PLEASE tell me where you got those diesel seats from!!! Nice bike man!!👍🏻

Forgot to ask, are you having to bleed your rear brake often due to the caliper bleed valve location and ABS valving?

thanks for the very nice review! do you have the part number for the rizoma rear brake fluid reservoir bracket? Clutch1st

How much did you spent overall ? Exhaust etc included ?

Your monster is really sick I love it. One of these might be my second bike pretty soon. Safe riding!

what brand is your riding jacket? is it armoured or just a casual jacket? I am looking for a new motorcycle jacket, but I want something a little more stylish (or a jacket that doesn't look like a motorcycle jacket if you know what I mean)

AWESOME UPGRADE! Where do you get all this parts?!

Nice!

Beautiful!!

shit b we gotz the same bike.. n some of the same shit.. i got rizoma mirrors, bar riser w the stock bar.. I like the leg ergonomics so i didn't fuck with the rearsets.. same deisel seat.. makes the bike look waaay better n drops an inch or so.. thinking of teeing off the charcoal filter as it's a cali only thing.. I do like the see through belt covers.. but they too pricey, plus I just got an st4 for touring ..so it's not in the budget right now.. biggest thing will be shorty levers.. as the stock ones don't let you modulate the brake very well, or flick the clutch for downshifts.. i'll post some pics when the weather warms up a bit ( I pray to the sun gods every day now).. n compare.. I digg the look of your machine.. do you do your own maintenance ?

Great video👏

The bike looks good but you've spent way too much money on this little monster.But if it's a keeper than I guess the money was well spent, although I suspect Rizoma sponsored this video since it's basically their all catalog allied to one bike!

Did you need to get the cables extended with the rizoma risers?

Very nice 👍

nice

very nice bike.....the only think i dont like is the white color

The fender eliminator is ugly. Makes the bike looks cheap

Great waste of money on them mods lol only one worth while is the slip ons

sounds like a cb500.. old one.

весь каталог на мотоцикл повесил. фетишь по ризоме...

i see that you have a, "im insecure", watch.

Never waste money on a bike you'll end up selling, Rizoma are over rated ,theres better gear and alot cheaper,Rizoma is over rated ,CNC racing ,Dukabike are better. 796 is something you'll sell ,no real power

Bro you literally inspired me to get my Duc Monster! Your bike is amazing! cant wait to crack mine open over the winter and hook it up.

+greenrolaids Thank you for watching. :) Lol, I'm not too certain how a watch makes someone insecure, but I hope you have a good day man.

Very well done. Classy. And probably the best walk around video I've seen. Only nit pick would be I wished you would've turned your lights and flashers on for a minute because I'm considering getting those turn signals. Also you owe ds83 for liking your current video otherwise I wouldn't have found you.

what a gorgeous bike! I really like how everything has been so well thought out.. looking forward to seeing it this year.

Clutch1st wow, that's a beautiful looking bike. I am headed back to LA in a couple of weeks and I am seriously thinking about hitting one of the official Rizoma shops to pick up a few goodies. Your video gave me some ideas. I love the clear belt cover, gas tank cover.

Hey you've got a great looking bike. Just wondering if you purchased the full termi exhaust or just the slip on's? Do you know if both options sound the same? Do you notice any difference in the way it performs from the stock pipes to the termi's?

For some reason all I can hear is John Leguizamo, well without quite such a harsh Queens accent. Must be a New York thing, though you sound nothing like my friend that's New York Italian/Irish, but then he's from Northern NY.. 30+ years away and his accent is still thick as a cabby's heart.. especially when he drinks. Ever noticed the Termi logo looks like a pair of balls with a schlong hanging low? :P

the factory does plastic brake and clutch reservoirs because they are light, cheap, and easy to see through to check your fluid level

sweet bike!

I disagree, the real fender is not so horrible and is a place where you can put a screw driver or nuts and bolts or whatever.

Nice ride. Can you tell me what the item number is for your risers? Is it the 42mm or 60mm?

Hey Clutch, can I ask you something? The seat looks like the Diavel seat. How.... how did you manage to fit it in a Monster? I mean, are seats universal? Did you have to modify something? I want to buy a StreetFighter Ducati, and that seat is just PURE pain. Yes, they sell the "comfort seat" but meh. I was wondering why and how exactly you changed your seat.

Wow she looks very very nice Very good attention to detail very well done Very good video nicely done Thumbs up Dracati Ducati

If I had a monster I would do the same upgrades! I took machining classes in high school and have become a huge fan of natural unmolested machined parts. You have good taste

Are these Termignoni full system or slip on with the ECU? Or did you also just flashed the factory ECU by Ducati? And one think did u install the exhaust by youre self? Sry if i asked too much:) I thinking to get one of these :)

Inspirational mods! I also like the diesel seat A LOT, where did you get the white version? I only seem to find them in militairy green..

Have you had any issues with the integrated tail light? With the law that is. I just got mine from motodynamic and have been reading that it isn't legal.

amazing bike ... all the details look great ... I especially like the LED tail light ... hopefully I could get a Monster in the near future ... :D ... ride safe and have a great day!

What did you use to cover the mirror holes ?

I own the same bike and share your same taste for Rizoma. Rizoma is very addictive. I have a MIVV Souno Carbon exhaust, ECU flashed by Rexxer, 14t front sprocket by Ducati performance..A few Rizoma pieces left to complete my bike. Hope to see you around. I'm also in NYC. Be good and keep the videos coming.

Mike can u do a walkaround of the monster with all your newer custom mods? Curious to see everything in detail and the cost of everything. Thanks man.

how did you purchase the Rizoma parts? I googled their website but i couldn't buy anything. Can you share the link with us? Thank you!

Clutch your bike is simply beautiful... All of the nuts and bolts make fantastic accent pieces... they really set your bike apart from the others. I'm Jelly! My bike could use some loving, but i gotta collect my bread crumbs!

Ho...ly...shit. Sexy bike is sexy. Great job, and great video editing. Camera man did a great job too. I don't even have a bike yet (still saving), but this video captivated and inspired me throughout its runtime. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to watching your other vids. Glad bakerXdarek recommended you or I would not have found this sweet channel.
