When I first put a thread up on the Forum I didn't expect to take a year and a bit to get around to adding a photo of my first Monster, so here it is - 2002 M750ie, bought at 12 years old with just under 4000 miles on. Not a project (although careful inspection will show a little bit of carbon fibre creeping in), and proudly still wearing its tray at the back.

I've followed Mr Gazza's suggestion for using Photobucket, so if there is no picture here, it's his fault.

I count 11, and all green! Very impressive though personally I prefer a variety of bin colour but quantity sure makes up for that :)

Cracking bike, looks very tidy!

However I've got to argue with Dirty and say they're a mixture of black and green, maybe we need a poll.

...they're a mixture of black and green...

are you sure they're not gold and white?

I think the bins would look better arranged green/Black/green/Black etc. This free-form arrangement is a bit untidy.

Cracking effort Dacs...An eleven bin shot...Well done.. :thumbsup:

The bins are Green and Grey. As per Broadland District Council policy the Green bins are for general refuse and the recycling (Green) bins are Grey.

Now that's just confusing.... What goes in the brown ones?

Nice bike btw... :thumbsup:

Yea, surely green should be for recycling, black is normal waste and brown is for any other **** you have! Because goddammit you paid extra for a brown bin so you can put anything you want in it? :)

All our bins are green for co-ordination, but the lids are different colours :)

There appears to be no ISO standard for Wheelie Bin colours.
Here green is refuse, Brown is organic (gardening) but my blue has been appropriated for rain-water collection

I thought that was what neighbours bins were for?

So do they.

Indeed, the fact we have blue bins for non recyclable/compost items at work causes a lot of problems with contamination, as people don't associate tea bags with blue bins. Brown bins I think would be more successful

OMFG!!! Well that's bins done. Can't see it ever being topped. I can't even start to count them! Well done sir, I doff my cap to thee.

Cheers, that means I can stop looking for them then. I know this is the wrong thread, but your developing Monster is looking great - ace detail work :cool:

Yeah. Hats off to you Dacs...I tried so hard to find the local bin depot.

I've got a feeling I know where it is, but I won't discuss it on here if it's near where your bike lives.

Congratulations on entering the UKMOC Bin Hall of Fame.

I am truly impressed, 'never in a field of dustbins have so many bins been pictured by one man'
