Of course someone will now point out that that the original Galuzi concept was to use a water cooled engine...

well nattyboy i dont think its the best argument to say that it was galuzzi's original idea and was then SCRAPPED. n for good reason.... maybe that's why it has become such an iconic design...

enjoy your monsters (even if the watercooled ones)

No more carbon, but there's lots more on there that could be polished and maybe get the frame chromed

I've had the pleasure of riding a 750 and 900 aircooled Monster- and I enjoyed them both.

But the S4Rs makes them feel very effeminate- there is nothing like the kick you get from that animal of a motor- and it brakes and handles better too even though its a bit heavier.

For me, the ridng experience will always outweigh aesthetics- its a motorbike not a sculpture.

p.s. Guy, I'm still on the lookout for a 850T3 / Cali to restore, looking to spend around £1000 - £1200, or less, as long as it runs and in mostly there
