I think we're going to cruise over to AMS in the morning sometime before lunch; anyone else going? They're doing a roll-out of the new Monster 1100 Evo.

[old crusty voice] Yer gonna put yer eye out with that kid! [/old crusty voice]
I won't be able to make it...
But I really like what they did with the exhaust on the new Monster. [thumbsup]
Wait a minute... there's a gun show this weekend? Had I only known.

This is TEXAS and it is a SATURDAY! ...there's bound to be a gunshow here somewhere... [laugh]
something about the mall [puke] and spending half my morning looking for a fish that vanished in my new tank. anyway, the gun how is next month [bang]
now it's off to look at RV's because my parents think I need one......lets see how good a salesman I am and convince them to buy one as a "spare" and then borrow it whenever we like. [evil]
THe Monster Evo looked very nice. Traction control and ABS standard for the $12K price seems like a good value [thumbsup]
That does sound like a good package [Dolph]

Hey Lisa, not sure how I missed the communication about the Monster 1100 EVO, we would have gone to check it out today. I can't wait to see it for myself. :)
did you see the front fender? it has something stamped under the clear coat from what I understand.

No, I didn't notice anything on the fender particularly. What interested me most was the way they've got the front cylinder header running now and just the whole stacked, shotgun-style exhaust canister. The tail has been tidy'd up a bit so that's different as well. But the Monster Evo is like every other Duc in that once you start studying the details, it just gets that much better. AMS has a red one.
I'm still not sold on that exhaust. You have to keep the rear passenger peg to hang an exhaust from it seems.
here's the pic with the fender sticker. Safety pack? [laugh] Marketing earned their keep on this one.
