good point I do not know have been trying to come up for a name for it maybe a cue for a competition. Started life as a 900ie Monster then got bored so decided to add and subtract some bits.

Well if we both go to the mill next year i think you should be excluded from competitions for not being a monster :) :p

how can you say that it still has a few Monster bits left ie engine, headstock handlebars,tank and horn. How much more do I need to have to be able to call it a Monster?

Looks awesome, after a few projects for the M900 this winter, tail chop, lightened flywheel are 2, and the 999 cans are tempting, what is it about the monster, people just want to play with 'em :mand:

The reason I'm so interested is that Exhaust is huge so I'm wondering what sort of tail you will do :scratch:

I don't care, If Eric turns up and wants to be best in show, it would be rude to stand in his way so any excuse I can find to disqualify you will do. :mand:

Good work tho Ian.

A bike is what the engine is .. Heart and soul of a bike is it's engine..
So far as I am concerned if something has a monster engine it's a monster .. You can't stick a kwacker engine in a monster frame then say it's a monster!!!

Apart from caviga .. But I still say hat the engine is .. Is what the bike is lol

Nice one Pooh, I remember standing in the paddock at Cadwell with you, CK&AK and the Ian who had a 749 swingarm for sale discussing how difficult this might be to do. Now you know.

cheers Gary, think you've now added a 3rd winter project, underseat cans here we come :mand:

Why can't I be satisfied with what I have :banghead:
