Hey Jeff - yeah, once you see a Duc up close, and hear it rumble, it can be pretty addicting! That's what got me to buy my Monster, too.
On the open clutch cover, there are a lot of vendors, they are on eBay all the time, etc.
A lot of people use carbon fiber clutch covers, but that is going to disintegrate if you drop the bike - adding to the cost by not protecting the clutch.
I wasn't in the Duc scene for all that long, but Cyclecat products seemed to be considered top notch. I knew guys that had them, and they did look really nice. If I was going to get an open clutch cover, that's the one I was going to get.
They look really nice, esp. with an anodized pressure plate and bolts.
Here's the linkss.
