Rally's M1100S. Progress so far...............
Having ridden the new Evo 1100 on the MCN test it made me realise how more civilised a new Monster is compared the S4Rs I already had. Loving the colour scheme of mine so much, the search was on for an 'S' version with Ohlins forks and a red frame. After much searching I found one.
Day 1. Collection from Essex. ![]() After 3 days in red, I was kindly offered a swop to Pearl white by a certain 'Mr Carbon'. The foundation of the 'Changing of the Colours Club begins!' ![]() The two side by side. ![]() The next stage was to strip it down and get some satin black powder coating done. Also a good opportunity to give it a good clean. ![]() Black it is, plus loose the fairing and add some carbon bits. ![]() ![]() On goes the new QD Maxcone pipe, carbon hugger, new clutch flywheel and cover. ![]() Last edited by Rally; 15-10-2011 at 12:02 PM.. |

Question; Wheels are next but I can't decide. Black, white like the S4Rs or gold to match the forks?

I had a White 1100s with the black frame, the combination never really worked for me, I always wondered what it would look like with a red frame, now I know........the dogs !

I like the champagne/bronze wheels. Swap for my 5 spoke whites if they fit?

These look a good deal if you're thinking of going more carbon: http://www.biker-discount.co.uk/duca...els-2541-p.asp
I vote for black wheels. |

![]() It was a good meal and a nice walk as well. ![]() I do prefer the front like it is although it does blow a bit more at speed. It's surprising how much that small screen keeps off. |

Gold Wheels. I saw a picture of a Multi with wheels to match the forks and it looked really nice.
