Title: Monster extras
Post by: Frentoperfin on March 20, 2011, 10:38:45 PM
Hi everyone,

I just bought myself an '09 1100 and am looking at trimming the tail and adding a clear LED tail light, but just interested in checking out monster *stuff* in general! Searching google brings up heaps of sites overseas so i was just wondering if anyone uses any decent online stores in Australia to get stuff from? Any links would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Frent

If the 1100 is like the 696, trimming isnt the same as the older style monsters. Theres no hacksaw required. More of a remove the beer tray and replace with a fender eliminator. Careful though, as you'll get a wet ass from water spray with some (like the compwerx ones). http://www.bikemonkey.com.au/ (http://www.bikemonkey.com.au/) sell the eliminators (a couple of types from memory) and they also have the clear brake lights your talking about. They are also integrated with indicators, which I dont think are legal. Not sure if they are LED or have LED...

Sure the others will pipe up with other place recommends too.

Enjoy & welcome

Hi Frent

You will find a lot of us get stuff from the states look at the sponsor list on the left side page. generally get it in a week. [thumbsup]
Monster parts is a good start. ;)

I just got an intergrated tail light from moto dynamic  $100 posted $170 cheaper than bike monkey http://www.motodynamic.com/index.php?cPath=17_18&osCsid=b2srd28ovuc7qcn0uoi0ttlth7 (http://www.motodynamic.com/index.php?cPath=17_18&osCsid=b2srd28ovuc7qcn0uoi0ttlth7)
The smoked lense looks so much better 8). and i hooked up the intergrated indicators to operate in conjunction with the stock indicators.

+1  [thumbsup]

I like to shop with our sponsors whenever I can...... but I'm also pretty fond of  PJs Parts (http://www.pjsparts.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=24_32)  too.

I do like the look of integrated tail lights.... but it will get you noticed  [leo].

We also have a personal Oz Monsters page sponsor in Carbon Imports.
It would also be a good place to look.  [thumbsup]
