Hello,

Got myself an 1100S last year in november,
Haven't driven it yet, since I was recovering from a collarbone fracture and all snow and ice during winter. before I had an M800.

The old one was defenately easier to work on yourself, the new one on the other hand is more finished. Wires are cleaner, etc... on the new one, but they are more hidden. simple example is changing the rear indicators to led units. With the old monster you just had to lift the saddle grab the wire and change the indicators whereas with the new one, lift the saddle and there's nothing, you need to remove some covers first before you fin the wires. Same with tha battery, on the old one: lift the fuel tank and there you have the battery. On the new one you need to remove 23 (yes 23) bolts before you can even get to the battery.


Albie, I think I'm pretty close to what you paid: 10.500 € for mine including Termi system and tail tidy. (and it has only 670km!!!!)
