I wish the Road Racing exhaust was still being produced. This was one of the cleanest Monster exhaust designs ever made. The Ex-box is cool, but this looks less bulky.

Word on the street was that they were hella loud and cornering clearance was an issue.

LOL, I think boom tubes have squashed the idea that people don't want a loud exhaust

They sure don't look like they could cause a cornering clearance issue any more than an Ex-box exhaust. Maybe with the suspension compressed it is different. I don't doubt they are loud though. Maybe somebody will take the overall design and make it their own by tightening it up and quieting it down.

The Monsters from the Road Racing website (shown above in He Man's post) are the only Monsters I've seen with traditional, non-USD forks. I wonder what the purpose was? Perhaps to look more retro?
Those RR spoked wheels look hot. Duck-Stew is using a pair on his Cafe Racer re-do.

I should have said, "In the top three pictures of Road Racing bikes". But the question remains, why would anyone spend money putting traditional, non-USD forks on their Monster?

I became aware of the Road Racing Exhausts after I had built my first set of BoomTubes. They were available in late 2004 from a dealer in San Diego. Unfortunately there is a ground clearance issue with them. (they wouldn't have work for myself in any configuration) Only thing I really don't like about them is the exit point of the outlets -- left side of the bike. I always considered the left side (alternator cover) being the ugly side of the bike -- especially when parked. The right side (clutch cover) is pretty side and especially when parked on the kickstand.
On occasion, a set of the RoadRacing exhausts appear in the "Parts for Sale" section. They were only applicable to the M900 engine series.

If I remember correctly, the dyno results were poor.
