CycleCat Chris announced that he's (re)secured the rights to CycleCat and they will be coming back to market. no real details yet, but he says he's got 'tons' of parts/stock that's been sitting since 2006. So from that I can expect we'll see replacement parts and goodies for bikes available in that era or before.
For those with the 696 era monster... suck it. Nothing for you! (yet) Of course I'd expect there wil lbe stuff for thsoe models at some point.
Oh and he stated he'll be focused on the Duc and MV market

Dammit, just bought a Speedymoto top triple. Oh well, AFAIK CC never made a conversion triple so probably easier at the end of the day to just go with that one. I'm sure I'll send some money his way shortly.
Dang, I wasn't even aware he'd gone away...

It's been like 5 years... didn't you notice that there was no new stock of their stuff anyplace? I guess if you were not looking...
But it did get a bit noisy when operations ceased. Either way, they are (in theory) coming back to market.
I do remember the awesome stuff! And the ba-bling ba-bling prices. I've never bought anything aftermarket for the Monster; I've always loved it just the way it is (externally). Even my mickeymouse mirrors are so rare these days they've become cool. To me anyway [insert Mongo dubious coolness comment here].
Fair enough... and yeah the prices could be steep. But From now having messed with a few folks stuff, I'd say the prices were decently realistic. The cycle cat stuff like foot controls were really well done.
Mongo = Cheap....therefore he no be buying blingety bling stuffs unless he finds it on Fleabay for stupidly cheap!....

It's like you can see into my soul... I need a new jib sail, and I'm eyeballing one that's partially burned!
But yes, the CC stuff was reasonably priced relative to the amazing quality.
