Dropped the Monster off for its first service ( included in the purchase price thankfully)

and the Dealer happened to mention he had one set of High level Termigoni cans left....


Oh dear.... When I pick the bike up later today its going to have them fitted complete with the race ecu, modified air box, free flow filter, ecu setup and a carbon seat cover...

The Post Traumatic Stress will soon disappear when you fire her up and ride off into the sunset...

Nice mods, and necessary for a monster... I had an old M600 with similar mods, and it turned it into a musical instrument rather than just being an engine... cloud9

Thats what Im hoping... It is rather muted with the standard cans on...


I'd have prefered the low levels ( and they are cheaper) but then when Tony got them out of the box I was sold hehe


I've got my eye on some nice carbon bits when I've a few quid.. hugger, belly pan, etc

Love it! my kind of bike! This is your first bike right? How are you getting on with it?

I'm waiting a year before getting anything that'll really blat around but my thoughts lie along the lines of speed triple (this years model), monster or super duke...

yep first bike... well other than 3 or 4 trials bikes as a kid hehe

I really like the Monster, plenty of poke, goes and stops well, and sounds great now as well.. easy to ride, and chuck about. When its fully run in its going to be stonking... with the ecu/filter and exhaust its good for just over 80bhp yikes

Id certainly recommend it so far. the only bad point is the fairly poor steering lock, you wouldnt want to try the test U turn on it !!!
