Hello from the Netherlands.

My name is Bob.
I bought my monster a month ago, it is a 2003 s4. My first bike was a yamaha xjr1200 this was a nice bike but i always dreamed of owning a monster.
It rides great [thumbsup].
The weather is not permitting me to read long distances, but thats alright for now because the bikes needs a bit of touching up (i got the bike relatively cheap).

Things done so far:
- Cooling fan's did not turn on, motor management light lit up.
  I found the cause in the wiring (fuse-box to fan) rewired this. I also replaced the thermostat sensor because the fan turned on very late.
  The fan's work fine now.
- Replaced the rear break micro-switch. The break lights did not go on.
- Replaced the gear changing lever, this broke on the first run..
- Replaced the open clutch cover for a closed one, The exhaust on it's one produces enough noise to get a ticket  [leo]

Things to do:
- Paint job, the paint job looks terrible with. The color is going to be matt black.
- Replacing de brake pads.
- Replacing the time cam-belts, i am going to try this one myself so wish me luck.

Glad to be here

Cheers, Bob

Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty, and the pigs like it...
