Title: Re: ex-box for new monster Post by: MaxPower on October 22, 2008, 06:59:06 AM Looks OK. I think it looks better on the pre-696 monsters, there was more of a space it tucked up into.

Title: Re: ex-box for new monster Post by: yotogi on October 22, 2008, 07:35:46 AM Showroom stand of some kind I suspect.
I have to say that I don't like it on the 696. One of the things that I like about the new style monster is the hidden exhaust. This feels like they strapped the old onto the new and added a couple of inches to the center of the bike underneath. Of course if they found a way to run something like the stock header off the horizontal cylinder, we might have a winner in my book.

On the old Moster it works because it took the place of the udder - on this one it just sits there w/no rhyme or reason. [puke]

I love my ExBox on my 695, but on the 696 it seems clunky. Of course I'm still not a big fan of the 696 so.......

The exbox made sense on S*R monsters but really just looks tacked on here. But on the bright side, the exbox will take people's attention off the rest the bike. ;) Title: Re: ex-box for new monster Post by: superjohn on October 24, 2008, 03:25:50 PM I'm not sure I like it better than the Quat-D slip on's, but the effect on the performance of the bike would be enough to make me want it if I had a 696.
