It has some very obvious tasty aftermarket pieces.
One is of the unobtanium kind.  [evil]

Thank you.


Swingarm is the SSS Febur kit for the pre 2002 Monster. With Marchesini magnesium wheels.  [evil]

Exhaust isn't all that pretty, it's Staintune exhaust that really need either replacing or a new shot of clear on the carbon.
But, it has a full spaghetti exhaust.  ;D

Also has high comp piston kit and FCR flat sides.  8)

Do you still have the s4rs and the 749?
Respeta mi autoridad!

Pedro-bot

Thanks swampduc.

Sadly no, I sold the 749s a little over a year ago. It was my track bike and I haven't had or made time for any more track days.  :(

I still have my S4 and the M750. Not sure if I want to keep the S4.
I've been wanting a 900 or 1000 Monster, this one came up so I snatched it up.

Maybe by the time spring time comes around I'll make up my mind about whether to keep the S4 or not.  ???

I see your collection has grown! Very nice selection.  [thumbsup]

Have you put that track suit to good use?

The bikes looks great, congrats! Did the PO chop up the rearsets?

I saw that bike on Craigslist and thought about buying it just because of all the tasty bits on it, especially the flat slide carbs and ohlins suspension

Yeah, he chopped 'em up to get the swingarm and exhaust fitted. Those will be going.
I have a set of cycle cats that's I found for sale. They should be coming in soon.  ;D

Yeah, it was on CL yesterday. I just happened to come across it a few minutes after it was up. Contacted the seller and well.....here we are.

BTW, in case anyone is interested I have the following items that I may be posting for sale soon. Not sure yet.

1. FCR flat sides 39
2. Ohlins DU440

These are extra bits I purchased this past summer for a different project. They are uninstalled and sitting in a box.
Maybe I'll change my mind about selling, but I'm strongly considering it.
