A classic Triumph flat tracker from the race director of the Wheels & Waves festival, a Virago influenced by 90s Japanese import culture, and the latest oddity from Lazareth.

Ducati Monster S4 by Barn Built Bikes Whether you leave them stock, sprinkle them with aftermarket parts or really got to town on them, old Ducati Monsters are cool. This 2002 Monster S4 used to fall into the second category; loaded up with bolt-ons, but without any serious fabrication work done. So the crew at Barn Built Bikes in Belgium decided to take it up a level.
Most of the parts that the previous owner had added on came off again, and got sold to fund the rest of the build. The first major undertaking was reworking the fuel tank. Shop boss, Sven, didn’t like the way the OEM unit dipped low at the back?so he cut away the bits he didn’t like, then welded it shut again.
The tank now cuts a cleaner line into the custom-made saddle, and also exposes more of the Ducati’s L-twin motor. The seat sits on a hand-made subframe, that was deliberately designed with sharp angles, to mimic the Monster’s trellis front frame. There’s a new electronics tray under the seat too, packed with a Motogadget m.unit controller.
Up in the cockpit, Barn Built swapped the bars for a set of Gilles Tooling clip-ons, with Magura controls and Motogadget switches, bar-end turn signals and mirrors. The speedo’s a Motogadget part too, and the headlight’s a LED unit.
