I brought this recently as a stock S4R with only 16000klms on it, it came already fitted with a power commander and was recently dyno tuned and luckily for me it was very cheap :grin
All along I was looking for a decent stock bike to turn into a scrambler after seeing the - 2018 Yamaha "Super 7" XSR Scrambler - by JVB Moto in Germany. Obviously I could not afford one of those so I made this one myself.
Selling off some existing parts and tyres I was able to make purchases & modifications to be out of pocket only $5k in total.
The new set of tyres which are one of the absolute best upgrades I have made to this bike -Continental TKC 80- Perform on road just as good as the reviews say if not better in all honesty they are fantastic.
Other big upgrades/mods include, Shortening the mufflers with new decals, cutting down the rear sub frame and re-welding brake light bracket, new indicators and LED lights, dropped headlight and instrument cluster 40mm, cut down the front mudguard, vinyl wrapped the forks & headlight

Finally in my own opinion, its now a beast.

Id love to hear from any other Scrambler supporters/builders out there

Very nice, being wondering how the Monster looked in knobbies, and you nail it. Looks great.
