I see your point, but that criticism applies to all stock Monsters. 

yes, it does.  just one of those things I don't like.

in the blackat thread where I upset him I tried to make the point that to fix it costs a lot of money, but to make it costs nothing more than ducati spend now.

but now i'm a hater it seems.  that's the trouble with opinions.

Everyone google  "haters gonna hate"
(It applies here)
Um... don't think I'll bother Googling, thanks  :-*.

You're probably just suggesting that you have a different opinion to some of the us  ;)

Nah, that's the beauty of opinions.  They're not fact and so can never be wrong  [thumbsup].

If we all liked the same thing..... a boring world it would be.

 So lets quit criticizing and start posting more cool bike pics!
Maybe there can be another thread called "Why that isn't a cool bike".

I actually really like the bike.
I just know the hate is strong with this forum....
this person actually spent a lot of time on this bike.
whether we like it or not (as with any bike) we can all "appreciate" it... we don't all have to drool over it.

I just like all the "haters gonna hate" memes, they are hilarious

Ducati does a pretty good job of matching the color of parts with the Monster Diesel.

Sorry to continue the conversational theme, but eh, not a fan.

I think my biggest issue is the Caterpillar yellow front calipers.

Sure they match the shock spring, but they're just so jarring.  [puke]

But it does show that when Ducati want to, they can take care of Brad's gripe about getting colors to match.  [thumbsup]

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string. 

Travman

I'd paint the calipers gold just like the previous "Goldline" Brembo brakes.  I've always liked that color for brakes.  It would go well with the green bodywork.  Maybe the shock could be gold too if it matched the brakes.

The seat stitching on the Monster Diesel is cool, but I like the "50 shades of grey" monster a page back better than the Diesel.  At least that bike had some nice work to accentuate the details of the bike.  The Diesel bike, to me, is just green and black.

I don't like it much.  No reason for you to attribute your hater judgements to the differing opinions of others.

It's a a gallery, no? 

Hang your pictures here on the walls and the visitors will offer their critique. 

I see no reason why we can't share our views and opinions.  Something shows up here that's cool.... well.... that's cool (according to me).  Something shows up that I don't much care for I'm probably gonna say so.  Others will - and clearly do - have different opinions.  Room for 'em all.  [thumbsup]

I agree though on the gallery idea. people offering their opinions.
I am, after all, the Panigale Hater (thanks to my dmf best friend)
