Matty, your a genius. Black on Black with old school decals, front end and Quad Box.

Yeah the black and gold does look good. Now all you need is the 1100S Australian release dates and a pocket full of notes.

Thanks people, happy to give you all a look at the inner workings of my Monster mind.
It really didn't take too long to create them as they are on black background.
I am a fan of the black/black with O/S decal, reminds me a little of Black/Black/Gold from Flight Cycles
It was a modern copy of the old 900 Pantah, always liked that bike.

and Matty, your shots proved one thing...just how small that new 'fairing' is....

anyone got any reports about it - I read in Ride Magazine that getting the bike above 180 is difficult because of the lack of protection/deflection.

Um, unless you're heading for the track, I don't think that should be much of a concern.   ;)

Some of us might be taking it to the track, you could always look at this incredibly fugly item from Moto Wheels screens

Yeah can't say I'm a fan of that screen at all..........
It does absolutely nothing for the look of the bike.

This is how I see an M1100 can look with a little work of course.

And that screen is the ugliest thing I have ever seen! Reminds me of the Pope's hat.

hard to tell what this looks like without looking at in from other angles (or preferably IRL)



+ Angrier headlamp surround


+ Belly Pan


There is loads of 696/1100 bling starting to come out..  :)

yeah, but Monsters aren't great cruisers anyway - you rip off that fairing and you get an even less pleasant experience.

The top speed of one of these things should be 240 ish? but you can't use the engine because of the lack of screen - that's form above function! blah!

I don't think they were ever meant to be cruisers. More of a weekend thrasher.  ;)

You wanna cruiser, buy a BMW.  ;D

Notice I didn't say Harley, they are more like LA-Z-BOYS with wheels. Hey Rob!  ;)
