Very nice I always wondered where you could fit an NOS bottle on a Monster...guess this has answered it! Looks a little bit exposed, have you added any kind of crash protection under there?

The bike was built as a one off for Streetfighters Mag and I have had her restored (more work still needed)

Wouldn't save it - shorter than bottle by look of it
Needs some kind of cage

Don't think they're meant to be raspberries, although it's the first thing I saw Looks to me like it's meant to be a white tank that's had holes burned in it to show what's underneath. Which happens to have a raspberry-ish texture! And the strips of red/white/green are obviously bits of italian flag
