always wanted a Monster, never quite got one, but...

For years I always fancied a 900 Monster... I did dabble with a 600 for a while, but its always been my ambition to own an early carb 900... Early 2019 I looked around for one, even put an advert on this forum, but nothing came up that was suitable, I wanted one I could rebuild as a winter project... Then I got sidetracked when a tatty ST4s came up cheap.

Next winter's project is definitely going to be a restoration of an early Monster, just need to find the right bike, but time is on my side...

below is the story in pictures of the ST4s winter build... a bit to go yet...here's what I started with. it looks far better in the pictures than it was... it was actually really tatty...
