Hey everybody!
So I'm soon to be a proud owner of my very first Motorcycle!!! Right now though I'm still trying to do some research as to whether it will be worth shelling out the extra clams for the new Monster 1100evo or to save a few bucks and get the 2009 Monster1100.
If anybody has any input, it would be greatly appreciated. Now on to other things, I'm from Tacoma, WA area so I know there is a small community of Duc owner in the surrounding areas so hopefully they will introduce themselves.
I have only ridden a handful of times, so I'm already signed up for a riding class that starts this summer. Ok that's all for now, everybody have a great riding season!

welcome to the board. you can check in over in the northwest members section to connect with members from your neck of the woods. glad to hear that you are taking a new rider safety course too!
Thanks for the welcome! I will definitely be checking in with the peeps from the NW!!! As for the safety course, I think it will help me greatly. I've ridden dirt bikes in the military but nothing of this magnitude. I'm seriously looking forward to it. BTW where is the best place to ask questions about year and models, because I'm still at a impasse on which to buy... Do I buy the 2012 and blow my whole wad (is the DTC and ABS worth it?) or do I save some pennies for some upgrades buy buying the 2009?
Well the day has finally come! I am a proud new owner of a 2012 Black Monster 1100 evo!!! The bike hasn't been home 24 hours and the mods have already begun... Compwerkes slip on exhaust, light werkes integrated tailight, woodcraft frame sliders, CRG bar end mirrors, fender Compwerkes fender eliminator, with an added mod at my 600mile service, a power commander and new fuel map for the slip on! Still haven't decided on levers yet, but will keep you all informed when I do decide. [Dolph]
