Did you get yours done? If so, how much was it?

$95 for both seats. Most places gave me a price of $120 and up. Get lots of quotes eh.

Very nice, I looked at buying an 09 brute but the seat was not at all suited to my bum.... Went numb after just 30 min.
So I Got the Tuono instead, same riding position, but a more comfy seat for long trips.

And I used to have half a V4 (and wouldn't mind another one to go with the Ducati keyring I've had for 15 years)....

I find the Brutale seat perfect for my tiny bum, it's like this bike was made for me. All the guys that ride my bike don't like it, it's too small for them, but that's what I love about it. I love it!

Bike before I crashed it -

After -

Still ridable & no structural damage, just not sure if I should fix everything before selling it or sell as it is. Bleh.

They were...
For a very brief time I had the '85 VF500 and the '90 VFR750, but had to sell the VF coz my wife was like

Had the VFR750 for a goodly while until some numbnuts u-turned into me without looking or signalling. I wanted to buy the wreck as it was 'only' $6800 of cosmetic damage, but my wife was like

so I bought the FahrtSturm. Some guy who used to be on KB bought the VFR and fixed it up for around $2500 (including buying the wreck!), so I was like

and

. My plan to fix it and bling it out with aftermarket zorst, brakes and suspenders came to nought.

Happily, my wife then forced me to trade the VTR in on the VFR800, which I've had for 6 years.

A few mods: Elka rear shock, Ohlins/Racetech front end, Staintune zorst, PowerCommander and custom map, Blue Seas electrical bits, Fiamm horns, heated grips, brighter headlights, Unifilter, Ariete alloy valvestems (wheels, not engine), hugger, C/F tank pad, Ventura headlight guard and rack, blah blah. Sometime it will get a new paintjob and polished wheels like the 750 had, and a custom seat.
Or not...

Still not an MV though

Hey, we've got one of them. Same model, colour and chin. Bloody hard to get onto two wheels though.

I'll have to do the family photo update soon, meanwhile there's my rides on my profile page...

Closest thing you can get to a bike on four wheels and more fun than a barrell full of monkeys!

While I'm still recovering and can't ride yet, I've at least got the MX5 as the next best thing!
