As for Exhaust I would def. fo with a "high and tight" undertail such as the 1098 or even the HyperMotard.
No reasn to cover up that pretty SSS (my opinion)..

I think it's a matter of subtraction rather than addition with this one. Here is how I would/will do it if/when i get mine,....

Stock



My moded verision




What do you think? Too minimal?

I like the stock can as well...what wrong with them ?
Color maybe...for that amount some titan would make it even better...and silver is sexy
Next thing is the mirrors....only thing that makes it too 1100ish.
They should be silver as well...and thinner...
I LOVE the headlight...also the radiators and stuff...
Its the new top line Monster :)
For real...

^^^ The single shorty can looks cool.  [thumbsup]

I do think it looks pretty mean and yes it's a matter of taking things off rather than putting things on.

Like the shorty can, but I'd be looking at something in the undertail dept.

I like the basic look of the bike with the exception of the Mufflers  ( which I would like high and tight as some one else mentioned ).

Also the piece used to scoop air to the oil cooler needs to be sleeker ( also mentioned by someone else ) .



Dave , the bike does come in other color combinations  yes ?      When is it's release date here in the States please ?     Dolph

I still think it looks great just as I did on release.  These pics look much better though.

As far as mods

I'd like an undertail exhaust and clip-ons would be great (along with some CRG bar end mirrors)

Overall  [thumbsup] 

anyone got a rich uncle with 19k to spare?

Overall, I think it's a great package. 

As far as mods/aftermarket items -- I like low, GP-style short exhaust cans.  It's also clear that something would have to be done immediately to hide those ridiculously huge/prominent master cylinders.   [laugh]

Am I the only one who thinks that the bike looks like it's nose-down to the ground?  Maybe if there's a rider on board, the rear suspension will compress and the bike will appear better balanced, but in a static pose it just looks jacked-up in the rear...   :-\

It needs more cow bell.  [laugh]

Not a bad package overall, but I agree with the modifying the headlight and exhaust.  Looks purpose built to take on the Street Triple ~

The Triumph 675 motor is no slouch, for sure, but the 1098 mill will kick the snot out of it from idle on up!

I'm curious to see the buying publics reaction to the asthetics and price point.

I have to say I'm warming up to it.  Still getting cheated out of 100 cc though.

Would have to have the new termi kit though.  And the belly pan would have to go. Maybe a round headlight and lane splitters. [thumbsup]

+1.  Yeah, I agree about the belly pan.  Has to go.  Anybody seen a photoshop of what it would look like minus belly pan?

Perhaps the oil cooler is so obtrusive the designers had to try to blend it in . . .
