Back again.

Hi all , not been on the forum for a while since selling my s4r in 2009 and buying a streetfighter. Kept that for 7 years, sold that and bought a scrambler . Kept that for a year but missed the feeling and of course the grunt of the big engines , so a couple of months ago I bought an ex demo monster 1200r and couldn't be happier !

Enough to lift the front wheel in third without too much effort...

The 1200R has a very addictive motor, bloody awesome!

Yes, it is a bit lively and with the ohlins suspension, it's like night and day compared to the streetfighter.
