So, I have waited and waited and finally bit the bullet!  Got the right deal and bought a new Red 2011 Monster 796 with ABS today.
I love the bike and have zero buyers remorse and can't wait to enjoy some of this AZ riding weather.  Anyways, I have enjoyed this website and can now post.  Just felt like I had to tell someone that would understand how I feel with that 1st bike feeling.  (well 2nd bike, but the first was a dirtbike a while back.) Anyways, Glad to be part of the group!

I agree! The first year is all about planning. It's the second year and on that you have to worry about.

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

You too!!?  I found a M1100 on the floor with a few carbon bits and the Termi kit already installed.  Then before I left the dealership, I went to parts and ordered the open clutch cover, mudflap removal kit and a few other small items.  It never ends.

miahendersons:  MUCH CONGRATULATIONS!

Wow, lots of us dirtbikers switching to street, okay riding street as well!! Congrats, just remember this bike has no "powerband" so don't rev it to the moon trying to find it, hehehe! JK Smiley have a look at my signature, those are some of the mods I have so far, if you have any questions, feel free to PM or ask as someone else might have a better suggestion than myself.
