New member, old Monster

Hi,

I am new to the forum and collect a 1997 M750 on Saturday. I am new to biking, passed my test in 2015, and have owned an ER5 and a Tiger 955i which the Monster is replacing. I found the Tiger too physically big as a novice rider and am changing for that reason.

The M750 I am getting has had a mod to the dash and a tacho fitted and I wonder if anyone is familiar with the parts used?

From the small pic it looks like a Road Racing dash, bit rare tbh!

Hi Pedro,

Thanks, I'll have a ton more questions when I get the bike. Having fun trawling the forum for more info about these machines.

Hello and welcome.
That does look like a RoadRacing dash. They were available through Dealers in the 90s.

They did some very nice kit, as well as a few dodgy looking items.
