Been on two wheels of some sort or another my whole life. This is my first Italian bike and my first brand new bike as well. It's a strange and wonderful feeling for me to be riding something no one else has ever owned. So far I love the bike and mods and upgrades are coming along nicely. I hope to meet many new Monster\Ducati friends along the way.
Thanks to the founders for such great resource for all things Monster!
Big Pete...
I keep hovering on the fence about the looks of the new gen monsters... But that one's sharp - can't deny it. The matte metallic grey frame with the black is something!
Thanks Panda...
Funny, I was just the opposite, I had always just "kinda" liked the monster until I laid eyes on this model year. For some reason I was able to picture in my mind of the "final product" and fell in love...
That and I rode every other model on he showroom floor and the Monster just seemed to be the best fit for me and my riding style. I was amazed that the dealer offered test rides let alone had such a selection of models available to do so. I grew up in a different world where bike shops cringed at the idea of letting a customer test ride anything.
