    Pre-TPG = Cagiva.

    Yeah. The Cagiva font looked pretty good on Ducatis.

    I have that same machine in red, puts a smile on my face...always. Pretty much my go to bike at this point unless going on overnights, then its the GS....If I could find some luggage for the MTS, I might be tempted...

    I know I saw a top case at least today. Check regularly. I bought side bags and mounts from a guy at work for $300. The left one was cracked. Found a left one on Ebay for $50. Paid $200 for the top case on Ebay. New the whole set would push right up against $2000.
    Also check the marketplace forum on Multistrada.net. There's a set of red Dp panniers on there now in SoCal.

    Here is a before shot, 1983 RGS1000. It has about 17000 km.

    This is after I cleaned it up and put it back together. It sat for about 15 years before I got it. It has its original patina.

    My 1997 916. It's near 960cc due to the 900SS crank and overbored cylinders with Carillo rods. I bought it from a co-worker who built it as a race bike.
