Newbie after 696 or 796

lewis1962 · 04-01-2023, 11:01 AM

Hi, I've had a couple of Monsters before along with many others.

So looking to get back into the brand, so if anyone knows of a 696 or 796 for sale let me know.

Of the dozen or so bikes I've had the only one I wish I'd kept was a blue S4R, miss her !

I had a 2003 S4R and totally agree that it should have been a keeper. Now have an 1100 Evo and 821 neither match the thrill of the S4R sadly

Hi Lewis
You really are in the right place to find a Monster now, and i hope you find a good one. It was me who included the EBay link for you on that "other" Forum.
I am envious after reading that you had an M400 as it's the one that I never got to cross off the list out of all the early belt Monster/SS range.
