Sports: [DucatiST] Re: ST2 to Monster

I paid 900 bucks for mine but it was missing all the fairings and had about 5 rolls of black tape holding it together the battery was hanging off the side Tied in with speaker wire . the guy thought it had a charging problem I found that the regulator was slightly unpluged pluged it back in and it charges just fine. I put the battery under the seat with 4 gauge wires works and looks much better now. i got the fairings off ebay for 300.00 going to go for the half naked look once they are chopped up a bit
