Greetings Stu and welcome to the Forum. The EVOs a great bike, but as you will discover, and from others input, there's lots to be done to make it better. You hail from my home town. I was born in the QE and brought up in Low Fell before heading out in to the world..

Welcome to the club and Forum Stu.
The EVO is a great bike and a future classic I'm sure. I had great fun on mine.

Hi Stu, yep, had a Rexxer Flash done by Neil at Cornerspeed.
Also new rear shock and fork internals and lowered bars. http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...ad.php?t=50780 http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...ad.php?t=50851 http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...ad.php?t=51391 http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...ad.php?t=52267 |

Hi Stu.
Welcome to the exciting world of Evo ownership. As with the other Monsters, they are ripe for modification. The only limits are your imagination and bank balance. I followed Chris's recommendation and got a remap from Neil and can confirm that it works a treat. The fact that Neil offers a postal service is a bonus. If you're looking to improve your low speed running, have a look here for the various options available to you: http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...ad.php?t=54450 Enjoy - and don't forget to post some pictures. |
