Title: Monster 1100S demo ride!
Post by: yoreese on April 12, 2009, 12:15:55 PM
WOW!  That pretty much says it all for my demo ride of the new Monster 1100S complete with Termi's, very sweet!!  Had a wonderful time at Melillimoto in Ocala, FL as I went with the intention of riding the Multistrada and did with not as much interest as it being my new bike after the demo ride.  :(  I currently have a M750 that I enjoy but after my ride on the 1100S almost don't want to ride it!!

You should buy it then.  I did and haven't looked back.  I chose Leo Vince exhaust though...and it is sweet.  It's an awesome ride.

Just remember, it is easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.  haha.  I hope you get the bike, you won't be disappointed.

  Today was my first ride on my new 1100s. It was cold and lots of sand on the road but I was soooo happy. I got the Termignonis on it and it sounds great. It sure pulls harder than my 696 did.

I was there......

After a breakfast ride Saturday with some folks, jeezz I left my house at 5:30a.m., to Ocala we decided to to go kick tires. Some of the group split to other shops but 4 of us went to the Ducati dealer.... While there others from our morning ride migrated in.

Well I have had the HOTS for a hyper motard real bad... Well I rode one and am now happier than ever with my S2R1000.

The hyper just does not fit my average 100 to 200 mile saturday morning rides nor my commute of 52 miles each way that I do every once and a while...

The ride was well done,  15 miles of various conditions

Thus mission accomplished, I rode a Hyper, had a good time, and am pleased with my present bike more than ever....

Thanx Ducati....

That would be me.  And was promptly accused of having a mid-life crisis.  Nevermind, I'd been warning her for months that I was going to do this.
