Saw a Monster in Clemson, SC this past weekend heading up US123 towards Liberty. I can't provide much of a description. My college buddies and I were there for the football and our annual drunk fest. I was very inebriated at the time.  drink

A couple of us were interviewed for the ESPN pregame show. My buddy's description of Howard's Rock was used. I'm just in the background looking very hungover.  Grin

I saw a matte black Monster of some type, I think it was a M750 or M900 but I could very easily be wrong, at the early voting place on Town Hall Drive in Morrisville yesterday (Saturday, 11/1).  The bike was parked in the parking lot about 1pm.

I passed a red Monster on Harrison Avenue in Cary today at about 12:45pm.  I was coming from the direction of Maynard Rd, heading toward I-40, on my S4RS and passed the other Monster heading in the opposite direction.

Saw a flat black 696 all stock except for maybe a tail-chop yesterday at 4:00PM and one day last week. Heading south on South Tryon in uptown Charlotte.
Pretty gutsy as cold as it's been the past week or so.

Ugghh, that was my bike but my buddy was riding it. I was on the blue Speed Triple.
I had the worst day yesterday. Started out my son came inside and told me there was a squirrel out in the yard that looked pretty beat up. Don't know what happened to him but guess who got to put him out of his misery? That's right, and he was a fighter. Cry

So we took off on a small group ride and after about 2 hours people were getting cold. We were riding back to my house with me in the lead when my buddy decides to try to wheelie the Duc. I had been wheelying my triple all over the place. Well, he looped it on hwy 70. It's all make the beast with two backsed up now...

You've had quite the string of bad luck with your rides Blackout...  Sorry to hear your buddy was a dumbass.  I say was because he's probably dead now.

No, he's a really good guy and will make it right, I know he feels far worse than I do about it. If the Duc was my only bike I'd probably be in a different frame of mind.

BTW, can any of you guys recommend a good welder in the triangle? The bolt that holds the kickstand to the engine is busted clean out and took out alot of the surrounding material with it  Shocked...

I passed a black Monster Saturday afternoon, sometime in the middle of the afternoon.  Don't know what it was specifically, it went by me in the other direction too fast to get a good look at it.  It appeared to have clip-ons and a chopped tail, that's about all I can say.  The rider was on the inner beltline up near the Six Forks Road exit.
