Hi there all coming back to bikes after a break due to anti bike partner now she is out of the picture ready to get another, I have already had a 620ie but just been to my local dealer and they have a very low milage s2r 800 in yellow as new!. they also have a similer 620ie red coming in this week.

Head says 620 heart says s2r :confused:

What do you think?

No contest really, it has to be the S2R.
Nothing wrong with the 620, but the S2R is a better bike.

S2r without doubt, in my opinion probably the best all round Monster ever made

S2R get it, you won't regret it. Had the same dilema when I bought the S4R, within 15 miles of picking it up I had a grin ear to ear.

Got to be the S2R.
When I was upgrading from my M600 my firts thought was the 620, but comparing the two in the showroom it just had to be the S2R, best decision I ever made.

It's got to be the S2R - better looking, better engine, better bike. The yellow ones are cute too!

there is no replacement for displacement

a good big motor will always beat a good small motor

S2R

I had a 620, and fancied a bit more power.

I now have a 696, and fancy a bit more power.

Maybe you should just skip ahead to an S4Rs?

Unless you are only going to ride it round the shop and back it has to be an S2R, I've had a 600 monnie as well and there's no contest.

All the way from NZ and I have a s2r800 and every time I look to replace it I keep coming back to the 800 getting to the point of not selling. The 999s are getting really cheap here so may just have two greedy sod that Iam

Hi bardwell
thanks for your reply. I had convinced myself it had to be the s2r.
I used to be in the Royal Navy and around 1979 i visited New Zealand and spent 4 days in Dunedin, as well as napier,chistchurch and auckland
just goes to show how small this world is.
