Title: New from Bmore
Post by: rwiggins32 on May 19, 2016, 07:26:57 PM
Hey fellow Monster owners!
I'm a little late to this site. I picked up a used 2012 796 ABS last August and I'm in love with it.
I joined this forum to pick up some ideas for cosmetic and performance mods. It came with Leo Vance pipes and frame sliders, I added an Evotech Fender Eliminator. I'm open to suggestions, feel the message me or direct me to a thread.

Thanks

Welcome!

Depends on what you want to do with it... it sounds like it's pretty well squared away as it is.   [thumbsup]

I want to work on the low rpm range drivability. I've here power commander  or ecu flash are the way to go. Any options?

Then you and I are on the same sheet of music.  As the bike comes, it is too lean for good bottom end.  Personally, as soon as I get a set of cans for it (the Leo Vince are on my short list) I have a 2nd ECU I bought off eBay to have reflashed... and also get rid of the O2 sensors/flapper and help the throttle response.

I'm curious... yours already came with aftermarket exhaust; I wonder if the previous owner had the ECU reflashed already?



You said you are in Baltimore?  In my past life I used to dispatch gas trucks in the B'mo area (primarily 7-11 and Costco) along with Virginia and northern NC.

Welcome [beer].

Post in Tech with questions on that. Also there should be a fair bit of material in the search function.

You could always start with a 14T front sprocket as many do. The one for 796 is specific BTW. Sponsor Monsterparts has them among others. Then take it from there.  8)
