Thanks for the welcome!!
I have just bought a 2004 S4r in red after going into my local dealer with a view to perhaps trading in my 748 for something a little less "head down-a**e up". I initially went into same shop a couple of years age with a view to getting a Monster back then but came away with the 748, which by the way has been a riot!
As i said i took this S4r out at lunchtime today in a very warm sunny day here in Aberdeen (does this sound right??) I was instantly at ease as the bits all seemed familiar but the more upright position was a revelation. A mixed 15 mile test ride and i was back at the dealers, in the meantime they had given mine the once over and offered me a decent price. Given that mine needed a belt change/service,MOT, chain/sprockets, back tyre it was eagerly (but not shown) accepted and i pick up the Monster next Thursday. I have not told the other half yet but she tends not to get too bothered as long as it's my money and not robbing the house fund. I have finally got a Monster after seeing them when they first came out back in the nineties. I work in the oil industry here in Aberdeen as an Instrument Engineer for one of the big oil companies. Used to work offshore but office based now and Aberdeen traffic is a nightmare, hence the bike. |
