Well guys I've sold the monster S4Rt and the scrambler FT is on order... Shocked

After a vacation in Italy this June with the wife riding pillion I decided that we needed a bike that was alittle less powerful for us two olde farts to potter about on so on coming home we took the stores demo out for a day and that was it, the monster went up for sale and sold within 24 hours.

The streetfighter is a keeper which I ride solo and I've got a lot of idea's for modding the scrambler.

Geoff... coffee

Hope you enjoy the scrambler Geoff Smiley

Well...... The Scrambler came in. I rode it. (Drool) then I knew I couldn't pass her up. And..... We now have three motorcycles. I'm going to hold onto my monster a little while longer. Until the husband wants a Panigale or Streetfighter. Then I'll sell her to a real person that wants to love her like I do. Grin

Got to take pictures tomorrow. Just got it from the dealer today. Just got a little more paranoid by reading the Scrambler owners manual. Seriously-does no one have common sense anymore? Some of these warnings in the booklet are ridiculous. Tongue

Beware of the wandering horse that he shall not take fright as you pass him.
Do not explode the exhaust box at him.

Give big space to the festive dog that makes sport in roadway.
Avoid entanglement of dog with wheel spokes.

Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon!
Press the brake foot as you roll around the corners, and save the collapse and tie up.

Sweet! Congrats. I test rode a full throttle for an hour this past Tuesday. Liked it but really loved the icon I rode after with termi pipe (no baffle)! Icon felt more comfy. I didn't feel comfortable on the full throttle as far as seat positioning and handle bars. Plus I'm a sucker for Ducati red! My dilemna right now is whether to keep my 2011 Monster 796 or get the scrambler. Decisions. Wish I could keep both but that's not realistic for me. I'd rather sell monster on my own since dealer is only offering $5k for bike. Enjoy your new Scrambler!!

Sounds like the manual of my old '92 Superlight. Grin



What's great is there are enough variations on the model allowing for individual fit, giving a very broad appeal. They're on a winner alright. The posts here prove it. I think now is the time to buy a small used Monster.

I love the Scrambler! I was drawn to the full throttle for the lower handlebars and its dang comfortable for me. I just have to pinch myself every time I see her in the morning!
