Hey guys, I just picked up a new Monster and figured this would be a great place to start hanging out. I'm also over at a small DC local board called monkeyriders.com. My name is Alex and I'm from Potomac but I currently live in Baltimore. My time is spent roughly 50/50 between the two.
I guess we'll do this first...
2002 Monster 750 S
Pros:
It's pretty
Well maintained (I hope)
It's pretty
It's pretty
Cons:
Tail was stolen from previous owner
No turn signals
Seat likes to pop loose
Left switch cluster is loose
Loud and stubby exhausts (I'm not a fan of the cut cans)
Not any faster than my last ride (Ninja 500)
Anyway, winter plans are to get it legal, inspected and tagged for MD, find some suspension settings for me, take care of the loose bits and to repalce the short cans with a high mount (maybe an S2R or S4R refit).
Nice to meet you all.
