Finally got a couple of pics taken of my 2003 Mille

One owner 24k but looks like its been kept outside and had a low speed drop, hence the 'project' title. Basically needs some TLC and a bucket full of advise from this forum :thumbup

Have some forks on the way, changed the sprag, serviced and it fires up like a dream.

Looking forward to a few North East meets.

ANy comments or suggestions welcomed :eatcorn

They are a very popular choice, sound fabulous, and look the business. I sold mine last year tho', but keep a lookout on the sale sections and ebay. ;-)

Very clean, but if you get rid of the standard can then you will lighten your bike by half its weight lol

The ever growing list

Forks changed
Scuffed rear light cover changed
Speedo sender changed
Steering damper
Larger throttle bodies
Hooked air filter
Dr Rossi chip
Renthal grips
Tinted screen

Big plan this winter is to paint it, so far Ive never even looked at it in the garage! So my plan is not quite on track.

Sounds like you need a PC3 and a custom map to get it all running sweet. Open the garage door and get your mojo back :thumbup
