Saaaaaahhhhhweeeet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


(but can they do something about the reservoirs?)
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

there are a few things I don't like about it:

I wish it had a fairing
The rake is too much
The reservoirs stick out in the wind
The headlight is a bit japanese

But overall it's a winner. I just hope the wheelbase and rake don't make it feel sluggish  [popcorn]

Maybe it's just me but I have seen afterbirth that looks better than that.

Meh. Just not into the whole angular neo artsy crap that has been getting dumped into the market.

But then I also like Guzzis...

Finally, something ugly enough people might stop picking on our Multistrada's [laugh]

Gonna have to disagree..... ah nothing makes the multi less ugly  :)  An this is pretty bad @$$ [moto] [moto] [moto]

I agree with FB though, on the front glass, lack of front cowl, and reservoirs...  some how I think the low cooler could be a bit smaller as well-then again I'm not an engineer.

Slap on some Rizoma reservoirs, undetail full termi exhaust and I'm sold. 

PS maybe a rear fender eliminator kit too....

Of course... those things are a given, along with a trick light-weight exhaust and some CRG's

It's a sad day for me filled with mixed feelings   :-[   My Monster is gone!  :'(

It makes way for the streetfighter but leaves a hole in my heart.

I could have sworn it turned and looked back as it rode away under the new owner  [beer]

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.
