I've got a 1200 Monster which I like the look of, but the original 94' M900 and the 1100 Evo are the best looking versions IMO. If I was to have a monster in my "collection", it would be an 1100 Evo.

Maybe this new ugly Monster will help keep the price of mine high... :)

OH, and @weeksy I love the look of the Terblanche 749 / 999 :wtf: :D :D

I like them more than I used to. But still it was a massive leap from the 996 and they soon went back to their roots.

I just can't see that monster being a poster bike for youngsters

Me neither, but as has already been mentioned, Audi are becoming increasingly more intrusive.
The Panigale V2 is a beautiful motorcycle and along with a couple of MVs are the most beautiful contemporary styled bikes out there.

Lets hope Audi listen to the feedback on the Monster, although I suspect 50_ something bikers who had posters of the 900SS Bevel on their walls beside Guzzi Le Mans and Laverda Jotas are not the target audience.. [insert old fart Emoji]
