Well the bike won Best New Monster!  

Congrats

These are photos from the arrival at the place a few of us stayed at. Geoff is in there with the snazzy black Ducati sweater I want desperately (not off his back of course)

Arriving in Buggenhout - Son was the packmule 
I'm explaining how I was stopped by the Belgium police for not have a license plate... didn't know I didn't have a license plate. Somehow vibrated off after crossing the border. But I did speed up after that stop... figured, speed cameras  go ahead and take pics of my ass.


And yes, I can see the speedo that way


you should see me helmet face shield 


Me putting the bike in line. The Monster on the far right won Best Old Monster.

Lookin' good.

Now, 5-spoke wheels with some color.

Thanks.... wish I could have taken it to Indy to compete.

Would have been great to see you there.

I am really feeling that exhaust setup, and the headlight is so much nicer in tight.  

Yours is my second favorite new monster by far, second to mine, but I'm biased.

[Raux]

Indy would have been awesome

I've been wanting a special set of either carrozzeria or oz with 4.5in rear
but funds just aren't there

Nice bike man!

Where did you get these slick looking headlight brackets?

LSL

how's your German?


This is where I ordered them from

But had to call LSL to get the correct size in stock.

I believe the 2010 was supposed to have been in 2009 - assuming it's a biannual thing.

They answered my email and said no plans were made, but that does of course not mean it can't happen.

Another photo from Belgium meet. A lone American surrounded by Brits.



this side looks cool with no exhaust

Looks awesome. That windscreen really fits well. Were the Brits impressed by your mechanical skill and ability to properly speak english?
