Hi.....I've had my 2002 M620 forever and still enjoy riding it....it's looking a bit tired so have got led taillight, tail chop,  seal cowl, new mirrors, signal lights, sticky tires,  etc for it - work at a sign shop so thinking of wrapping it so if anyone has any pics or ideas of something different that would be cool....also have seen some of the LED headlight conversions and wondering if anyone has had success with them......Thanks

First, think about how the large updated/painted areas will make their (old and scruffy?) neighbour parts look even worse than before. For example - a glossy new tank requires an equally glossy frame, which will require work done to the engine. A.s.o.

^^^ maybe a flat paint/wrap makes this less problematic.

Ducati launched tank covers and sticker kits for the new Monster. Inspirational?

There are great threads about LED lights. You should be able to find them.

About vinyl wrapping

I assume you are going to do the fuel tank only.

What is the frame color?

Do you have bikini fairing?

"Something different", meaning you are looking for something " out of the box", something usually not associated with Ducati?
In what direction you want to go?
(If you have no clear idea, I suggest take a look at Rossi's helmet design.
For example, ...



I'm not saying to copy this design.

The idea, using Milo Manara's art work on the helmet, itself is unique, out of the box way of thinking.





About the LED headlight
Are you thinking about getting a "unit" (head light assy),
or LED bulb?
