Well I sold my beautiful little Monster 600, she served me so well, I can't imagine a better first bike - she was a perfect introduction to motorcycling, and just about the prettiest damn thing I'd ever seen.
But with my restriction period over it was time to move on, and with the market for high-end bikes that fit within the power/weight restrictions booming, it was the right time to sell my baby.
I'll never forget her.

So I wanted to thank you all for your help over the past 2 years, I couldn't have modified the bike and kept her running like I did without your help, so a sincere thank you fellas.
As of last night, I've moved on to my next bike, though I suppose the apple hasn't fallen too far from the tree - she's another beautiful Italian twin-cylinder, my new Aprilia Shiver

Thanks again fellas, and maybe we'll meet again down the road sometime, in my search for my next bike I did have myself a hell of a time on a shiny red S4R... and who knows?! Maybe by that time El Matador's rear seat cowl will finally be ready!
