Introduce Yourself / Nokka from Oz

G'day all,

I live in Newcastle, Australia, work as a pilot and have been riding since the mid-90s. My current bike is a 2013 Monster 1100 Evo and I previously owned a '96 900 Monster which I bought in '98 and still regret selling.

Sure, hard to spend money when I got the bike so cheap. Plus I know I wont be doing more than a few days this year.
Thanks for the info. Will be spending some time this week gathering info off the form.

"Mr. Clark, I'm afraid I have bad news," the doctor told his anxious patient. "You only have six months to live."

The man sat in stunned silence for several minutes. Regaining his composure, he apologetically announced that he had no medical insurance. "I can't possibly pay you in that time," he said.

"OK," the doctor said. "let's make it nine months."

I get paid when people spend money. Nothing wrong with that?  [thumbsup]  [coffee]

$400 rearsets sounds almost "affordable"? Depending on type, you'll need some that also holds the exhaust. Maybe have a look at SuperSport and ST4

My rearsets are the discontinued CycleCat. They have survived two serious attempts to kill themselves.

I've been happy with Castrol React SRF "Racing" which is clearly the best regarding high temperatures. Fully floating discs if you can afford them, the best semi floating if you can't. Pads to taste. I use the calipers you have ("996 calipers")(from where they first appeared). I have a radial master cylinder from a StreetFighter 1098, but that was the one upgrade that didn't excactly blow my mind. Your parts are probably ok as they are and even more so if they are kept in TOP condition.

Quote from: sQuid.Vicious on March 31, 2026, 08:09:26 AMBrakes I'll most likely keep stock. Had to sort them out and the clutch master to get her going, but probably fine for a few track days.
Been looking for rearsets but only seeing things around $400. Was hoping for something a bit cheaper.
Was gonna lay'r-down in the garage to see where she'll slide, mainly the exhaust and engine covers i was worried about.
What rearsets are you using? And dare I ask about your brake setup?

This oughta be good.  [laugh]

Careful sQuid. ;D People around here love to spend others money.
