Hi people just joined as am on look out for a 900 "Monster." ridden bikes or my life, loads of different types, but love the design of the Monster. Need to know what I have to look out for in the 2nd hand market, any special problems with the Monster? What models are there that feature the 900 motor etc? Any advice would be great. Cheers. Kev.

Hi Kevm, welcome to the forum

900 Monster is a damn good bike. Easy stuff to check, find out when the previous owner last had the belts changed, if they don't know that is the first thing to do (just for peace of mind!). If you get a bike from one of the members off the forum, that'll be a good bike

(except mine

).

Also be prepared for stupid grins, admiring looks from other biking types and just pamper and look after the bike and they'll last longer

Watch out for the stupid side stands! (Unless it was just 600s like mine that pop up themselves)
