chaseontwowheels That connection wire to the battery might have bad connection to the battery terminals, which would read a not connected status, the battery might still be good
Man, she took a bad beating. I'm really excited to see what you do with the Monster. Welcome to the Monster life, the battery is under the gas tank. Be careful with the crank case screws, those guys strip easily. The engine took the bulk of the damage but the rear passenger peg kept the exhaust from getting damaged. Some sliders would have saved that bike. Also, there's a second filter at the bottom of the bike for the engine, you should definitely remove it since the case broke. There might be debris or shaving in there. Quality looks on point as usual fam.
So pumped to see this build unfold. Just picked up a 2013 Monster Diesel (600 miles) and although it needs nothing, I look forward to learning about the bike through this build series.
It's wild that there wasn't that much damage to that bike to be sold the way it was. It's awesome! Look foreword to seeing it get started up hopefully next episode.
I freakin' love this. So happy I am supporting your series. Can't wait for episode 2. I definitely could watch a much longer episode. I am a noob-ish biker and just got a Ducati Scrambler icon yellow. The Monster looks gorgeous, even in this sorry state. I don't know anything about fixing or customizing bikes, and I am so excited at the idea of seeing this process (I don't even know how to clean the transmission chain, lol, will learn). Also, I LOVE your garage!!!! I saw the episode where you show it around... Man, you really are doing things right, much respect.
Man your enthusiasm is infectious. Glad you are enjoying it cause we have some awesome content coming. Please keep commenting because reading that totally put a smile on my face!
Looks like an awesome project! I have a '06 Ninja 500 I got from a co worker who wrecked it with 1500 miles on it. Ive been working on it for about a year and a half now ( I never have any time to actually work on it), but Im hopeful to get it rideable again by March or April! Ive learned so much and I definitely want to do another once this one is complete!
Chase, the left side slip on for these bikes just wiggle. It's just how they are. ALSO! the tank covers.. when you get done unbolting them, they have to slide forward before they will come off. It's 's like they're kinda hooked on in a way. Plus you will want to tape up the tank cover edges when putting them back on because the center piece that goes around the ignition can and will scratch stuff.
Just finished rebuilding a 636 with pretty much the exact damage that you have on that. I had the best luck with using a cut wheel on my dremel and removing the bent part of the bolt, then cutting a slit in the cross section so that I could unscrew it with a flat head screwdriver. Goodluck with the build man.
Joined the Patreon! can't wait to see what's all in store for the bike..also can't wait for spring to start up my own channel..thanks for all the awesome content. keep up the good work chase
Are the passenger pegs scratched? If so then they may have been down and that helped protect the exhaust... Also what's wrong with the tank cover? looks fine to me. Maybe I missed something though.
These episodes are a great idea. Perfect for winter time. Maybe the bike simply hit the curb and fell in the ditch; explaining why the exhaust are relatively intact. Presence of grass, dirt and scratches (or not) at the end of the handle bar could provide some clues. Also try to free spin the wheels to see if they are not oval or off centered.
Chase, instead of using allen keys for everything your mechanics toolset has a screwdriver with allen key type heads and are 1/4 in drive. Put a 1/4 inch drive on a ratchet and then put the screwdriver head in it and it will make your work A LOT easier.
This is going to be an awesome series, also I would do two oil changes since the crank case has been open who knows what kinda moisture and debris have gone inside
When you encounter a flashing red light on a Battery Tender...do NOT rush out and buy a battery. Instead, hook up a 12V, 6 amp charger for a while to "kick start" it. After an hour or two, disconnect the larger charger and switch back to the BT. You will nearly always discover that the BT will display a solid red light, indicating a normal charging condition. Of course, sometimes this does not work and a battery is too far gone but you will be amazed by the success rate.
hay Chace, my dad fixes cars for a living. he said to let you know that he loves the idea a of your build series, he also said to tell you that the exhaust has what looks like to be a flange on it. and the safest and easiest bet to do is take it to a welder and have them tack it all the way around. Btw keep up the good videos.
a trickle charger won't charge a battery that has been discharged past a certain point. doesn't necessarily mean the battery is dead but might just need to be jumped first. The battery may have also been disconnected at some point. not sure if this helps or not.
Great first episode! With the engine oil drained and a crack in the crankcase you should definitely do more inspection on the motor before starting it. At least compression test... just looking out bro. Can't wait to see the final product!
If you get it running check it's actually charging too. Stator could be damaged and they are not cheap! Couple of simple checks can be done at the connector with a DVOM, ohm check between each phase and continuity check between each phase and chassis (ground) will tell you if it's open or shorted before you even run the bike.
Definitely looking forward to this. Should be a sweet finished bike. As far as salvage goes, a tiny nick in the frame makes a bike salvage. So any amount of damage to this bike instantly made it a salvage.
The fact that you can repair a bike by yourself is incredible. love your videos Chase keep at it. ps. is there any kind of bike anyone would recommend for a starting bike with 650cc
The bolt that is bent, is the threaded part it bolts into undamaged? If it is the bike was written off because then engine cases would have to be replaced (or more likely the engine would be replaced). also DON'T grind around the exposed engine, even small metal shavings gen inside and could kill whats left of the engine. The missing parts from the engine side cover had to go some where and parts and debris could have found its way into the engine. You DON'T want to do an oil change and try starting the bike only have some little bit destroy it even more. Regardless if your going to fix that engine it needs to be completely taken apart and inspected. Now a bike shop it would cost a fortune in labor to repair it but all its going to cost you it the parts and your time.
@chaseontwowheels with the battery tender you have, when the light is blinking it means it is not connected properly or battery is bad. It is solid red light when connected properly and charging. I have the same model.
I have a feeling the rider saved the back of the bike from rubbing the ground by his flesh rubbing the ground instead. Chase PLEASE pull the other muffler off and start it open once. That straight pipe air cooled 1100 Ducati sound is straight up EARGASMS!
Awesome idea Chase, awesome bike. Hope you know Italian bikes' electricity is way more complicated than Japanese bikes'. And BTW, don't forget that google and you tube are your best friends when something isn't clear with the bike. Looking forward to the next episode.
Chase do you have a Haynes manual for this bike? It would probably be good to have a full shop manual since by the looks of things you're going to have your work cut out for you.
Double check to make sure the battery is actually connected. The flashing red light means that there is a bod connection between tender and battery. A completely dead battery, that won't take a full charge, will either stay a constant read indefinitely, or go green quickly while battery still can't turn bike over (though it will turn dash on). Before buying a new battery, just make sure it is actually connected.
Hi chase just a suggestion, when you point to a detailed thing, please provide some light and do a good tight shot so we can study it also. .... Especially when you talked about that exhaust it looked like there was carbon at the seam where it was separated. As if it had a leak there before the incident.??? And how was that manufactured can you tell if the weld broke?
interesting, the website you used to identify each part is the same website i use to order my parts. they offer great service and always reply fast to emails. and the best thing for me is that their store takes a 20 minute drive to get there.
Maybe had hard bags on it. Don't forget to check the belts and valve clearances while u have it open, better yet take it to the pros at Ducshop and get a Honda or something to learn to wrench on.
The Muscle Biker yeah I'm also concerned even if the block isn't cracked , but if all the oil instantly drained out, the motor could be seized. And then it's buying a new Ducati motor. Ouch 💸💸💸💸💰💰💰💰💰
Andrew Barbare the actual engine may have avoided damage because when bikes tip over they automatically kill the engine. Even if it ran for one second after the oil drained it should be fine (fingers crossed)
Seeing that it is salvaged, most states require some sort of inspection saying that it road worthy. Not sure what GAs rules are, but have you run into any hurdles with that?
Im like wtf. Didnt check the whole bike and just plugged a damn charger on it. He dont even know if there is battery or not or if the charger is compatible
Good video Chase! But for future reference, dont try to charge a dead battery with a tender and expect it to work anytime soon... you need to charge the battery, a tender is not a charger it simply keeps the battery charged so it doesn't die
For all you people Chase will be lucky if the end of the crank is not bent! The tricky procedure is that the clutch cable or sensor cable of some kind that runs through or behind that little cover and has to be reset to factory specs! Good Luck Chase!
Today I went to 3 motor dealers with my buddy. Dude the bikes are sooo sexy in real life! (First time for me visiting a shop) Already a big fan of Yamaha and KTM. Cant wait to see myself drive in a couple years.
personal recommendation, bend that crankcase bolt back instead of cutting it. It was installed when the bike was crashed so there should be plenty of bolt in the hole so no threads will be damaged. Vise Grips (pretty much lockable pliers) have helped me many times, guessing that you'll love them too
Awesome series man excited about it... that is such a pretty bike beauty!!!! these bikes are not that common in India well awesome work dude keep it up waiting for the next video :)
I was surprised you started with trying to see if the bike would switch on and start.... i was glad the bike didnt as I'd clocked the crank case before key went to bike.
I low sided my bike (Street Triple) with twin under seat exhausts and the exhausts didn't get touched so it seems more common than you might think. In fact I just put out a video of the crash if you want to see a typical low side.
Hey Chase, I've enjoyed your mini-series and this one looks to be the best yet. I think it has something to do with a Ducati being in your garage. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing each new episode and the progress of the bike. On a side note, that site or document you were looking at that showed you all the Ducati parts and part numbers, do you know if that can be found for all bikes? If so, where, or what should I search for?
Man I'd love to own this bike after it's fixed up. But well I live In Singapore so I suppose that won't be happening. Great series Chase! Will be following this series :D
I think the bike's been in 2 accidents. First was a small low speed low side on the right side, hence the small damage and scratches. The second accident is what killed it, a shot right to the crankcase and more small things on the left side. That or it was in one big accident, the left slide hit something that threw it onto the right, but that seemed illogical or there'd be more fairing damage. Can't wait to see what becomes of it.
you might consider a fluid flush in case any debris/dirt or other mystery items got into that crank. Cheap process since it could prevent internal damage
I think the exhaust must have been put on after( Maybe the owner thought of fixing it before giving the bike up. Just a thought) wish I could watch the live streams but working...Navy. Keep up the videos, love the idea of your series!
You're going to have to fix the crankcase where the screw "or is it a bolt"-James May. Otherwise, oil is going to leak through that screw over time and you will loose oil pressure. Tig welding would probably be the best option to fill the chip missing.
exaust looks like it is just missing the clamp for the end of the slip on. i would advise getting in touch with downshift83 he has shown many times working on his ducati and can be of aid to you for figuring out what is wrong with it and what the names of things are so you can order the correct parts the first time not having to reorder cause you were looking at the wrong part. this is all just a thought take it for what you like. best of luck on the rebuild.
From what I can tell...at least they didn't hit a taxi with it!
like the panigale? lol
Seems someone got my joke. lol
chaseontwowheels lol
chaseontwowheels looks like it might have hit a pole and/or curb.
chaseontwowheels That connection wire to the battery might have bad connection to the battery terminals, which would read a not connected status, the battery might still be good
Man, she took a bad beating. I'm really excited to see what you do with the Monster. Welcome to the Monster life, the battery is under the gas tank.

CLUTCH1st I figured I'd see you here somehow hi Clutch
"Can you see that?!"
*Entire shot is out of focus*
Do It With Dan dad?
Do It With Dan not being mean but what happened to his nose
So pumped to see this build unfold. Just picked up a 2013 Monster Diesel (600 miles) and although it needs nothing, I look forward to learning about the bike through this build series.
Dude, I am so stoked for this series... It kinda feels like B is for Build but with bikes, which is 10/10 for me
It's wild that there wasn't that much damage to that bike to be sold the way it was. It's awesome! Look foreword to seeing it get started up hopefully next episode.
FYI, in italian "coperchietto" means "small cap". Also the "ch" sound is prononuced as "k", so it's similar to coperkietto.
Thanks Tuna!

I know very little about Ducati so following keenly.
The garage is to die for.
Best of luck homie.

She looks like she's in good shape for being "wrecked"! Hope things go well for you man. Love your vids!
Loving this series! This is definitely something fresh for the vlogging community!

its a good thing the battery was dead. Who knows what crap and metal got pushed into the case when it went down.
Clearly chase is a pro. He wouldn't just randomly crank over a bike that has crank case damage.
oh wait, he totally would.
The exhausts toggled God mode
These episodes are a great idea. Perfect for winter time. Maybe the bike simply hit the curb and fell in the ditch; explaining why the exhaust are relatively intact. Presence of grass, dirt and scratches (or not) at the end of the handle bar could provide some clues. Also try to free spin the wheels to see if they are not oval or off centered.
Welcome to the Ducati life. Posts are going to be fun and pricy. I have full confidence the bi Ike will turn out beautiful.

Looking forward to this series, good fun. I've the same HF lift table but replaced the wheel clamp with a Condor wheel chock, much better.
i like how the tail light turn signals are in between the exhausts
The damage looks like the rider just wedged it between 2 walls thinking they'd fit and got stuck lol

#WBRsupportstaff Fist time seeing a MOTOvloger redo a bike with input and support from the fans, and some lucky fan will get an awesome bike.
@chaseontwowheels with the battery tender you have, when the light is blinking it means it is not connected properly or battery is bad. It is solid red light when connected properly and charging. I have the same model.
can you use a flashlight when you're looking into small dark gaps/areas so we can see all of what you're seeing?
I have a feeling the rider saved the back of the bike from rubbing the ground by his flesh rubbing the ground instead. Chase PLEASE pull the other muffler off and start it open once. That straight pipe air cooled 1100 Ducati sound is straight up EARGASMS!

Would rather have seen you keep it yourself..the bike is a beast
Mansa Musa same. I would be hesitant to accept that if I won it honestly
Mansa Musa ikr even after the crash it's pretty sexy looking can't wait till the end of the build to see what she looks like up and running.
Chase do you have a Haynes manual for this bike? It would probably be good to have a full shop manual since by the looks of things you're going to have your work cut out for you.
Very excited to see how this bike turns out!
RR Rob919 hey I just subbed to you. :)
Thank you!

This build series makes so much sense, all the best! and ignore the haters and naysayers!
Hi chase just a suggestion, when you point to a detailed thing, please provide some light and do a good tight shot so we can study it also. .... Especially when you talked about that exhaust it looked like there was carbon at the seam where it was separated. As if it had a leak there before the incident.???

First episode came out on my birthday? Must be fated to be mine!
interesting, the website you used to identify each part is the same website i use to order my parts. they offer great service and always reply fast to emails. and the best thing for me is that their store takes a 20 minute drive to get there.
lets hope its nothing major what could set the rebuild back , but great first episode never the less dude keep up the great work!
Maybe had hard bags on it. Don't forget to check the belts and valve clearances while u have it open, better yet take it to the pros at Ducshop and get a Honda or something to learn to wrench on.
so stoked that this is starting! let's build something beautiful #wbrsupportstaff
Fixing engine cases is an ambitious project. Don't just hack it together pls.
Who Cares yeah just use some duct tape should be fine
Who Cares he is replacing it, so as long as that bent bolt did not crack the block I don't see a hard thing about it.
That's what I was looking at and it looks like it goes past the point of the case cover and on the engine
The Muscle Biker yeah I'm also concerned even if the block isn't cracked , but if all the oil instantly drained out, the motor could be seized. And then it's buying a new Ducati motor. Ouch 💸💸💸💸💰💰💰💰💰
Andrew Barbare the actual engine may have avoided damage because when bikes tip over they automatically kill the engine. Even if it ran for one second after the oil drained it should be fine (fingers crossed)
Dont get me wrong here i love all your videos, but i absolutley love build series over anything else
Seeing that it is salvaged, most states require some sort of inspection saying that it road worthy. Not sure what GAs rules are, but have you run into any hurdles with that?
I have a feeling the battery isn't connected to the battery tender terminal at all.
Thats what I was thinking also I was very worried he was gonna start the bike with a hole in the crankcase. lol
Goosing the starter won't hurt anything more than it is already hurt and will tell him if it can spin, if the electricals are functioning well, etc.
A battery tender cannot charge up a dead battery. Its not that type of charger.
Im like wtf. Didnt check the whole bike and just plugged a damn charger on it. He dont even know if there is battery or not or if the charger is compatible
can tell im going to enjoy this looking forward to the next one thanx for uploading buddy
Chase you need to get a set of automotive type overalls for the shop.
Good video Chase! But for future reference, dont try to charge a dead battery with a tender and expect it to work anytime soon... you need to charge the battery, a tender is not a charger it simply keeps the battery charged so it doesn't die
For all you people Chase will be lucky if the end of the crank is not bent! The tricky procedure is that the clutch cable or sensor cable of some kind that runs through or behind that little cover and has to be reset to factory specs! Good Luck Chase!
Ducati's are for sure not the easiest bike since they put being beautiful over being practical.
Today I went to 3 motor dealers with my buddy. Dude the bikes are sooo sexy in real life! (First time for me visiting a shop) Already a big fan of Yamaha and KTM. Cant wait to see myself drive in a couple years.
I love my monster 695. Wouldn't mind a badass upgrade
You should totally give this series its own channel bro
Keep up the great work Chase!
I'm looking forward to this series. Next check, I'm gonna have to put something in your Patreon so I can say I helped.
personal recommendation, bend that crankcase bolt back instead of cutting it. It was installed when the bike was crashed so there should be plenty of bolt in the hole so no threads will be damaged. Vise Grips (pretty much lockable pliers) have helped me many times, guessing that you'll love them too
1440P i love ya! :D nice to have stuff in QHD for a change! :) cant wait to see how she looks in a few episodes time :D
Could have sworn I saw you in Texas yesterday Chase. You must have a doppelgänger running around.😃
yup cant wait to see wht it is going to look like
Dope series idea man, well presented too
Awesome series man excited about it... that is such a pretty bike beauty!!!! these bikes are not that common in India well awesome work dude keep it up waiting for the next video :)
I was surprised you started with trying to see if the bike would switch on and start.... i was glad the bike didnt as I'd clocked the crank case before key went to bike.
I low sided my bike (Street Triple) with twin under seat exhausts and the exhausts didn't get touched so it seems more common than you might think. In fact I just put out a video of the crash if you want to see a typical low side.
I'm digging this series
congrats on the 600k!
Anyone else having flashbacks of the last time chase had a Ducati 'of his own.'
Love the work you put into it
This is a great idea for a video series! I luv it! I'm looking forward to the the next episode :)
I have good feeling about this serie!!
Hell I'm excited for this build.
Hey Chase, I've enjoyed your mini-series and this one looks to be the best yet. I think it has something to do with a Ducati being in your garage. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing each new episode and the progress of the bike.

Man I'd love to own this bike after it's fixed up. But well I live In Singapore so I suppose that won't be happening. Great series Chase! Will be following this series :D
How long did the bike run with no oil in it though? Could be damage to the piston rings, right?
Congrats For Hitting 600K Subscribers! :D
600k CONGRATS!!

I think you have to get a new gasket if you put a new crank cover on. Maybe the passenger pegs save the exhaust?
Can't to see how this series goes.
you might consider a fluid flush in case any debris/dirt or other mystery items got into that crank. Cheap process since it could prevent internal damage
that garage is badass
Looks like a fun project! Will you be replacing a lot of the internals like clutch etc. or will you only replace the internals needed to make it run?
For what happened to that bike it looks pretty good! Good luck with the build I'll be tuned in!
Looks like the left side impacted something like a guard rail or something low, breaking the crank case, sending the bike on its right side
I think the exhaust must have been put on after( Maybe the owner thought of fixing it before giving the bike up. Just a thought) wish I could watch the live streams but working...Navy. Keep up the videos, love the idea of your series!
You're going to have to fix the crankcase where the screw "or is it a bolt"-James May. Otherwise, oil is going to leak through that screw over time and you will loose oil pressure. Tig welding would probably be the best option to fill the chip missing.
exaust looks like it is just missing the clamp for the end of the slip on. i would advise getting in touch with downshift83 he has shown many times working on his ducati and can be of aid to you for figuring out what is wrong with it and what the names of things are so you can order the correct parts the first time not having to reorder cause you were looking at the wrong part. this is all just a thought take it for what you like. best of luck on the rebuild.
can't wait to see the next one!! so excited!!
Hey Chase, have you ever thinking putting dry clutch on ducati?
