  2. Defo strada got a single seat and alloy rear sub frame unless someone had modified it .looks like the chain guard is missing too.
     
  3. So is this better than the s or what's the main differences?
     
  4. 916s the S I belive stands for strada. The best thing to do is get hold of ducati and give them the chassis number. They can confirm the exact model. If it is a 94 strada be worth a lot of money!! So I'd then start putting it back to standard, get rid of the tat on it, unless you like it that way because it's your bike and it's up to you.

  20. Congrats on the bike! :upyeah:
    Agree with all the above about putting it back to std. it'll look much better though I might be tempted to keep the red mirrors on. They don't look out of place and IMO look better.
