that sounds really bril, other than the engine what else do you have to change, have'nt taken mine for a proper ride yet, so wonder what its speed is like? as its bellow 600cc. have to fiddle with foot peg on right side as my leg doesnt bend properly, so cant wait to give it a try, but always wanted a ducat, i hope to sort it next week. have also a ktm640sm and bandit 1200 thats currently in hospital

hello

I'm not that far from you just outside of Lewes.

I keep meaning to meet up with the Kent guys at the Oakdene so maybe when the weather improves we can take a run up there if you fancy it.

I'm new to biking with a 620Sie as my first bike.

Cheers.

Jody.

We'd be happy to see you at the Oakdene anytime and we're nice and friendly so don't fell worried because it's your first bike. I've only been riding for two years and use most of Kent for my weekend rides, especially if the weather's good and and after a good breakfast at the Oakedene.
We're there every 2nd Sunday of the month, on bike or car.

Hi folks nice welcoming atmosphere round here
Welcome to " The " club for Monsta lovers!! this is definately the place to hang if not riding it.....
i was reading about a monster '99 600 and continued with a 600 now a 900 with extra drive gear ?????????? I suppose a six gear ??????
can that be done???? sorry if I sound naive but I was realy considering the 900 output since I have a 600 and hitching for a few more horse power to use..................

What and how intense would the up grade involve in terms of work and time ?? 600 to 900

cheers folks

ride it like you stole it
