Title: i put down my DEPOSIT this afternoon...
Post by: eyeboy on November 04, 2008, 03:57:33 PM
canadian pricing released, $16995 CDN for the base, $21495 for the S.

I want black, but its only on the S (also comes in red). the base comes in white or red, the S is here in May, the base doesn't arrive until the summer.

what to do... what to do... I know i get better wheels, suspension, carbon bits etc... traction control... but $4500 more???

i'd just pop for the base but the only thing i'm not sold on is the fairing behind the lower cooler... in black it looks good, but red? white?

can i wait until summer?

oh, the huge-manitee [bang]

I'd be willing to bet someone comes up with a carbon fiber piece to replace that that will cost a lot less $4500.  Or even a belly pan... [bacon] [bacon]

Is there a lower cooler on the Monster?

And can you not get a base Monster in black?

Is traction control available on the Monster S?
