Title: New Monster... Finally!!! Post by: Adamm0621 on December 30, 2009, 02:20:46 AM After four years being monster-less, I drove up to Louisville yesterday and put the deposit down on a brand-spanking new 2010 Monster 696 (Dark). Unfortunately, its staying at the dealership until all the parts come in and are put on the bike (CF Termis, 14t front sprocket, frame sliders, tail chop kit).
I would have driven it home yesterday but its damn cold here right now, and I'm still waiting on the delivery of my helmet and leather jacket. Needless to say, once all the parts and gear arrive, I'm going to be riding regardless of the weather. Having to leave my brand new Monster sitting in the showroom with a sold tag on the handlebars hurt quite a bit. The last time I felt like that was the first time I dropped my son off at daycare and he started crying when I went to leave. :'( I'm still looking around for insurance for the bike so if anyone has any companies that they've received a good quote from, let me know.

I would have driven it home yesterday but its damn cold here right now, Louisville? As in Kentucky? And it's too cold? What a wuss!!!!!!!

I guess he never heard "a clean bike is the sign of a sick mind". Title: Re: New Monster... Finally!!! Post by: bicunica on December 31, 2009, 11:24:57 AM Congrats!!!

The existance of weather worse than that currently parked over Louisville in no way makes the weather in Louisville worth riding in... That is why my VFR is comfortably parked in the garage with a battery tender. You are right though, your weather is worse. I've been communting up to Hartford for 3 yearsfrom Louisville and probably just took my last trip. I'll miss the pizza, but not the snow in a rental car. Back on topic, I may just have to go down to commonwealth and - -uh test the suspension for you... Title: Re: New Monster... Finally!!! Post by: NorDog on December 31, 2009, 04:52:51 PM Oh hell, I was riding all winter when I live in Great Falls, MT. Though I must admit I stayed home on thsoe five days it got down to 20 below zero.

State Farm insurance was MUCH cheaper than anyone else for me in CA. Happy New Year! Ciao! |
