I understand about the subframe, but look at it this way, it makes the bike much more brutish, bull dog like since the subframe tends to blend in to the bike and the main frame has all the heft.

I like the more forward look of the bike and it feels that way too. I didn't like my M900 City cause i always felt the front was too light.

WF- yeah that's only 30 min or so from here. I don't think there's another Duc closer than that to me. But if anyone knows of anyone in Lawton that enjoys Italian tastes let me know.

I had looked at the OKC dealer (did ride their demo, love the CF termi) but they didnt have a bike right then that wasn't sold so I went to Dallas. I sat looking backwards while my friend drove his truck (tough 3 1/2 hrs). Hit rain and had a panic attack, but dried her off when i got it home.

No pics yet, had to wait for my new helmet (old blue was a bit trashed), but i'm sure i can convince the wife to take a few tomorrow.

We meet at the Starbuck's on 19th St in Moore a lot of times. Then we go by Marcus's house to rattle his window and get him out of bed  ;D

No riding for me. I need a new battery. I guess I'm going to make my maiden voyage to OKC. Doesn't Shadowchaser work there? Anyone have any idea of the estimated cost for a new battery, and/or directions to the shop in OKC?


I'll be coming from Lawton direction I guess?

Check for battery shops in your area, they may carry a battery for your Monster.

With a new baby in the house, I take it when I can get it  ;D

Le Pirate, Hank is right. There should be a shop in Lawton that carries a battery for your bike. If not, Shadow Chaser does work at the Duc shop in OKC. There is only one. There number is 405 943 2691.  A new battery is about $150

Call if you decide to come up and I'll give you directions. It's just off I-40 but not easy to find if you don't know where you're going. 405 641 1749


Ok, now who's in for tomorow morning boys (and girls)  [moto]

I'm heading to the OKC shop in the morning. (in the car, with the family) Hopefully i can find some CF parts  ;D
If you're coming from Lawton (which I am)
Take I44 exit I40 west. take first exit, turn right, turn right at next light. go down to Hudiberg Circle. Go to the end of the road and you are acutally at the back of the building. It's on the front of the building facing the highway. You can see it from I40 right after the water park.

In lawton we have the Yamaha shop on cache rd. the Kawasaki closed down. and the Harley shop is right off gore and I44.

Hank

I got my battery from batteries plus.  I probably didn't even spend $50 on mine

There's one in OKC, at I-240 and Sante Fe.
And the directions to the shop sound about right  ;D

As for tomorrow: Damn you Trent!  Have some extra fun for me   :'(
