Hello! My name is Matt. I am from Deland, FL. I'm 38 years old & have been riding on the road since 17. I started on the dirt when I was 11. I have had eight bikes... mostly Harley's. I currently own a 2010 Street Bob (which I'm looking to sell) and a 2008 Big Dog k9. I have always had my eye on Monsters, but I still haven't flipped the switch yet. I'm thinking that when I unload the Street Bob, I might go with an 821 Monster Dark. I thought I'd look around here and see what you guys think of them, and what they are capable of.
Thanks!
Hi Matt; I own a 2006 FLHXI Street Glide that I bought new and have put 60,000 mile son, a 2000 FXDX Super Glide Sport that now has full floating Brembo brakes and Ohlins shocks (!), and three Ducatis - a 2007 Monster S4Rs Testastretta 998, a 2003 1000SS track bike, and a 2006 1000SS street project that I'm building now.
I think you will LOVE the 821; the v-twin feel is different from the Harleys, but all of them are compelling in their own way!
Welcome aboard. Lots of great information to be had here!
