My first monster!

Hiya,
Just joined and wanted to say hello! I recently bought a monster 1200 to replace my cb1000r. I wish I had changed sooner, what a great bike, I love it 😄 I did a skills day at Thruxton on it recently and it went brilliantly! Off to Ireland on it next month so will have even more fun - weather permitting! Just need to sort out some form of luggage!

Welcome!

Glad you're liking the M1200 - that's quite a choice for a first Monster!

For luggage, a lot of people swear by the Ventura system https://www.ventura-bike.co.uk/ They list a kit for the M1200 but only up to 2016.

Welcome to the forum Ducachick , I have a 1200s and it's my first Monster, what a great bike. I'm even considering getting an 1100 air cooler to keep it company.

Welcome aboard!
You are preaching to the converted !
The monster, in any of its various types, is a cracking bike. And the 1200 is just awesome. Did I mention i have one!!!
