Hi. I’m Troy McClure. You may remember me from such self-help tapes as “Smoke Yourself Thin” and “Get Some Confidence, Stupid!”

So what's the first bling item planned?  Zorst?  Carbon bits?

Nice to see another new gen Monster.
And what are you talkn'bout Suzy Zorst......  [laugh] [laugh]

It's always Zorst, just not for you. You do technical things many of the rest of us pay for.

+1 on some darkening of those foot peg brackets.

Nice ride. I like the black and red.
You greatly underestimate the amount of overconfidence I have.

Nice ride mate

Maybe consider:

Black ceramic coat exhaust
Black after market rear sets
Black vinyl wrap on forks
Black exhaust paint
Black rizoma after market mirrors
Red pazzo levers
Red rizoma reservoirs
etc.

Oh my god it...when does it ever end [laugh]

Also what is that mounted to your handle bar riser..... Rego tube?

Cheers guys/gals its an awesome machine, if I'm not riding it I'm standing looking at it dusting it off even when there is no dust ha ha..

I've bought some goodies already well before I even had the bike, just waiting and eagerly checking the post box for delivery.

First on the list;

Comp werkes tail tidy
CNC bar end mirror's

To Follow;

Barracuda belly pan
Handle bar risers but lower than stock, any suggestions?

I have already removed the gauge windscreen cover which I think has really toughened it up, good idea with painting the exhaust can's I have seen a photo somewhere and looks pretty good, I was going to change them to comp werkes but the dealer said I'll void the warranty if they aren't temi's with the ecu etc $1500. So paint will be the cheaper option as i will more than likely upgrade to the 796.

p.s yes that's the rego tube, temporary until the tail kit gets here

Nice one! the new gen monster is just starting to grow on me. I love when the silver section through the centre of the headlight is painted black!
looking fwd to seeing some progress pics  [thumbsup]

Very nice indeed!

Loving the matte black body work + glossy red trellis frame

Ive just clocked 3800kms on mine after buying it in august last year, still love it!

Black with the red frame looks sweet. Is that the way you brought it?
