Looking at a Monster in a couple of days, 2011 model and just the basic model. Any standout thoughts on these and at 6ft1 is it a reasonably bike ? I don’t do a lot of miles , just the odd pootle around .
So, a 2011 model probably mean it’s a 1100evo. I have one of those, also a 2011 model, it’s now done 31k miles and runs like a champ. It’s been serviced regularly with belt changes and valve checks at the appropriate mileages. It’s not the smoothest of bikes but what air cooled v twin is. There are though are a few things that can be done to smooth it out a little. Good looking bike, doesn’t seemed to have aged, not the most comfy for me these days but for short Sunday morning rides it’s perfect.
A mate of mine has just recently bought a 1100 Evo ,and he loves it ,a great looking bike ,and a lot of fun to ride .
