What? It's a 1100 there is no water pump.

oh shit, my bad, im just pulling shit out of my ass now.

put one on there anyway. people keep pregnant doging about an 848 watercooled monster on another thread, maybe thats what did it.

what is the housing near the sprocket cover? ive seen them replaced with bling before.

Clutch slave... definitely needs a change... heaven forbid I mention any specific one though, it'd add 20 pages to this thread just of arguments :-P

Nice bike so far. So you're the new DNA CEO! Or are you really Steve Jobs? Glad to see the new boss is a real bike man! Congratulations on being Warren Buffet too. I thought buying other people was the only hobby the 1% indulged in but I was wrong!

But.....Evo slave. ISR or Berenger masters FTW. Braketech CMCs or Sicom rotors. Ti nutz & boltz EVERYWHERE. Ti front axle. NCR Ti rear ride height adjuster. Ti rear shock spring. SPROING! I mean really give it the j v treatment. Still would have rather seen the new BST carbon swingarm/triple clamps/wheels on the bike, then you truly would have ultimate Monster bragging rights. I don't trust magnesium, and it's heavier and cheaper than carbon. But hey. Did I mention BST carbon? I mean throw the whole vault at this thing man! You can afford it! Go Go Go!

In other news kopfjaeger's Monster is my favorite motorcycle of all time.

. NCR Ti rear ride height adjuster.

For a bike that doesn't use a height adjuster, or have adjustable ride height, this is the only thing I find in your post to be overkill

what bike do you have that doesn't have a ride height adjuster?  some don't come from the factory with an adjustable one, but it is adjustable on every model - though sometimes it requires replacing the rod or partially disassembling the suspension linkages.

on the 94-01 Monsters, based on the 851-888 frame, you remove the pins holding the swingarm and hoop's ball-ends together, and wind them in or out equally to raise or lower the height. The race model 851/888 had an eccentric adjustment on the top shock mount to do a similar adjustment, with much faster adjustments.

the 02+ Monsters use a rod-linkage setup like the 748-916-996-998 - if your rod is non-adjustable, you just swap it with an adjustable one and BAM ride-height adjustments. The non-adj rod was equipped to cut costs so there was more price-discrimination across the model lines.

The 1100 and 696 are NOT height adjustable.  The closest manner of changing ride height is to machine a new clevis (or try to add a spacer, which I am looking into -- just have to hang the subframe off the ceiling first, or get a motor stand, so that I can see how much room there is to add.  1/8" or so more in the back would be great).

The 696 has a different attachment bracket than the 1100, this provides the height difference, and is the cheapest way to raise the rear on the 696.  If you have an 1100 already, it's at the max ride height (unless you crank up preload, but that's just silly to do for ride height, as it will kill quality, and proper suspension setup).

They use the direct shock, rather than linkage

Got the Termis riveted back together and added a gold Termi decal for good measure. Also decided to go with forged mag Marchesinis.

[booger]

For a bazillionaire you sure do take good photographs

[Amlethae]

Please tell me you're either going with Darmah skins or something awesomely unique akin to everything else.... man I want my Termi's to look like that!
