Yeah, I had one of those for about a year.

Then I chopped!  [thumbsup] 

That's the great thing about Monsters...they're a canvas and everyone can paint their picture!   [moto]



Is your tail slash cut? Any other shots of it?

No, that's just the angle of the pic.

My wife says "absolutely not!" on the clutch cover...but tell me more. Open? Closed? Pics maybe?
I'm a little concerned about the lack of protection for the clutch if you go down with a CF cover, but I could be persuaded to go CF.
Just don't tell my wife!!  ;)

Spoken like a true addict!! It is closed (max protection). You can see it here and it comes with the Corse emblem you see on it:


as for the wife, what happens on the DMF, stays on the DMF!!   [laugh]

PM me if you are interested.

I'm not totally useless, I can be used as a bad example!

I have to admit, the chop looks good on certain bikes, this one being a great example. It think to me, if you have a shorty exhaust like Boom Tubes or the QuatD Ex-Box, then the chop lends itself well to the overall look and flow of the bike. I haven't seen a bike I've liked it on with regular exhaust. Even when the cans have been shortened.

That being said, the newer S*R style Monsters came with a slightly longer beer tray that didn't look good either. That is the specific reason I did the no-chop CF peice on my tail. Some of you may remember my last Monster that Yuu now owns. With all the mods I did on that bike I never even changed the directionals or the stock beer tray. I just thought it looked great the way it was.
I've been wallowing in my own chaotic and insecure delusions.
