Did the bike come with those marchesini stickers on the rims, or did you put them on?

Mine didn't, and I didn't think they were marchesini wheels anyway.

Great choice of bike (if I may say so myself)!

Hi Neilo

I might lose the red stickers as they are poop quality and matt.

My wheels are Enkei/Brembo (Marchesini is Brembo) so i put the stickers on (Tart)

I think Enkei are now at least part owned by the Brembo Group as Japan was having far worse reccession than europe.
but not 100% sure

they own AP Racing & Sabelt etc etc.
I like the stickers

Ask and you shall receive!
Thanks for the update on Enkei/Brembo/Marchesini, I didn't know any of that. I just knew that Enkei made F1 wheels.
I bought some Ducati Monster 1100evo wheel rim stickers off eBay, and they're great!

Dont like the exhaust (personally) as prefer twins with two silencers.

Bike however is mint! The 1100 Evo is the best of the new bunch and looks closest to to concept imho of the true Monster (M900).

How does it compare to what you had previously?

Hi Rick

Great pic. Just got an EVO as well. V interested in your experience of the Remus. Just a question of time before I'll want to make more noise lol. Did you have to do any other mods to make it work ok. Have you noticed a difference in the performance/torque etc. Possibly agree about shiny finish but still looks good. Termi's are nice but sooo expensive.

Regards
Mike

Hi Mike

Sorry mate missed your post about Remus pipe.

No mods needed
smoother at low revs and much louder.

I recently fitted 02 sensor eliminators and the bike is transformed at low revs and small throttle openings.

Would love Termis but they are stupidly priced (Mugs and lottery winners only)

Regards
Rick

Termi's have the better sound tbh. There are deals to be done, you just have to know who to ask.!.

They have a different sound that you happen to prefer.

Fair enough.

But they are a rip off and the build quality is shocking from what I've seen.
