It is 1999 DUCATI MONSTER 900 CITY

Since it is a "CITY" it is only one of 150! that made it to the USA in 1999 ('99 was also the only year the CITY model was made). RARE ! (all this info was internet obtained, so still verifying this ... )

The city model also means it had taller handlebars (have switched out for shorter ones), a windscreen (LONG gone) , the Mandarina Duck bags (soft saddle bags), and sometimes lower gearing for city riding (haven't checked yet).

The color on these bikes was BLUE. WHICH I REALLY LIKE !!!

Here is a STOCK photo:

It is used and of course has a couple issues, and OF COURSE some modifications will be done (say goodbye to the rear fender) , but by spring I'll be pimpin' it

Oh and top speed via GPS was 94.3 MPH (in the truck) on the way to ASPEN, CO

Congrats. Glad to see you made it back safe.

Now all you need is some fire, and a long metal chain

Are you going to ditch the mudflap / license holder?

Now waiting for the integrated tail light:

Also gave it a front reflectorectomy :

The bike is really looking good. Yes, we all have the disease. It is contagious.

Its not contagious, I think we were born with it.

The strange thing is.... no one in my family is into modifying cars / quads / anything really. They have toys, but they leave them 100% stock

And then there is me.....

Same thing here. My Dad likes his toys, but likes them stock (a K&N filter is heavily modded to him

)

My dad mods most of the toys he has, but mainly bolt ons
