Accessory ideas - Ducati Monster 937+ Plus - Walk around (Mivv Exhaust) [720p]

In this video we’ll explore some of the premium accessories available for the very classy Ducati Monster 937. This is the first ever Monster since when the M900 came out in 1992 which does not have a Trellis frame - however Ducati’s reasoning behind this was to achieve an 18kg weight reduction (to 179kg) and hence improved performance. It’s loaded with a 937cc V-Twin testastretta engine, delive...

In this video we take out the 2024 Triumph Speed 400 as a first ride impression! A bike that was in research and development for 7 years, very much anticipated and has already proven to be flying out of the showrooms! The bike was loaned to me from Kings Norfolk Triumph (a great bunch!), and I got to spend a couple of hours getting to know the bike - on what started out to be a very wet day! It...

So wholesome ❤
Nice to see a daughter having fun with dad
Can I send these accessories to Brazil?
Hi, thanks for your message. I am not sure, I would like to think so! 😉 You will have to check the manufacturers websites my friend. The main ones being R&G Racing and Evotech Performance 👍
Great video, i am looking at selling my 1250gs and trying the 900 GT PRO, i’d be interested in seeing your exhaust and accessories to come
Cheers Lambo! Glad you found it useful. I think you'll be shedding almost 30kg moving from your GS, which can't be bad! Good luck with that, keep us posted! And yes, that Scorpion end can will be a definite - just to give it that little more growl 🤘
I plan for a dna airfilter too with an exhaust will sound great
@ that will sound superb! Every pull on the throttle counts! 👌🏽
Great video bud I have the silver version and have some similar mods to you. I'd recommend a decat just to give the rx a little more growl. Noticed around 10% more noise and definitely feels more responsive. You should definitely remove the pillion pegs if you don't have a regular pillion it just looks a million times better! I didn't bother blanking mine and don't notice much water/dirt ingress so probably won't bother as you can't see the hole anyway. Carbon heel plates look stunning I'm.just unsure about hor strong they will be so I haven't bought a set yet and may just wrap mine so I can remove it if I don't like it. Also your arrow can looks to have black/carbon protectors around the join and cat... or is that just the camera angle as mine are stainless. Look forward to more vids bud 🤙
Awesome comment Dean cheers, you might have just planted a seed with the decat idea! 😅 I decat a monster 821 I owned and recall the extra 10% responsiveness you mention, which does make a nice difference when you pull in the throttle. Regarding the pillion pegs, I did wonder how much water and muck might find its way into the holes, but if you say you don’t notice anything I might just whip those off 👌🏽
@MotoBikerMike give the pillion pegs a test but the rear has vented holes anyway along the flanks and nothing comes through there either lol. I'd be tempted to wrap the rear silver undertray on a black rx too.... or fork out for a carbon one 😂 but I'm sure those are 200+. Check out carbon fbr for more ideas.... just be prepared to want every piece 🤙
@@deandavy2924 I think I will, thanks for suggesting taking them off! Luckily I'm not mad fan about carbon, otherwise my bank account would be even more crippled! Happy new year! 😀
I just removed the Pillion Footpegs on my RX. For what you need the removal Kit from evotech?😅
@@Steph_bikelife Hi Steph, the Evotech blanks fill the hole after removing the pillion pegs. How have you found the size of the holes after removing yours? 👍🏼
@@MotoBikerMike i just life with the holes😂. In Germany there are no parts available to cover the holes
@ do Evotech ship to Germany? Fully recommend their products 👌🏽
Nice bike.
Cheers my friend! Bags of character, and I simply fail to get bored of riding it 😀
it is my favorite bike at the moment,in France the price is about 16,5k without options.With some Chinese bikes with the same package for less money,it is becoming a difficult market to choose for a new bike.BTW good vid and impressions.
@@steffun7271 thanks for the message and watching! You’re right, the Voge DS900X looks like a real contender and at 9K it’s a very attractive price too! Do you own a Tiger 900, or are you still deciding? 🤘🏽
@@MotoBikerMike i am still deciding,i am just under 5"7 so i do consider this aswell.i am looking for a trail(road) around 100 HP....ex- Suzuki 800 SE?CF moto 800MT?YAMAHA Tracer 900?BMW 900 XR?
@ nice lineup of bikes that, the new F900XR might be the winner for me 🙂
❤❤
Got mine on order for March Delivery..how did you find the tyre’s have heard mixed reviews..
@@niall5181 something to look forward to for the new season! Tyres were ‘passable’ I would say, but if it were me I’d probably look to see what Michelin or Pirelli have to offer.
Thanks cool 😎am trying to get one oh this
Cheers! Definitely have a test ride - I thought it was pure fun!
@ Thanks brother 🙌🙌
@@prguerero Keep us posted! 👍
Trully looks like your having a blast .😊
@@JohnSmith-sm6oy sure was 👍🏼
My local bike training place in Hereford got 2 of these for A2. Absolute bloody disaster. Sent back to triumph in disgrace and replaced with yamaha which are faultless apparently.
Wow, that does sound a disaster! First I've heard of faults with them, what exactly were the issues? Yamaha, obviously a great brand, I learned/and passed my tests on them way back when 👍
Honda surely, learners need Honda
@@PaulB-q3d CB125 was my first CBT 😁 I’ve got so much time for Honda’s
Nice one Mike 👍
I've just got a Tiger GT PRO, it's Awesome ❤❤❤
Awesome David! Good man 👍👍👍
@MotoBikerMike I've done 1,100 miles on mine in 7 weeks
@MotoBikerMike The exhaust note is very addictive
@MotoBikerMike just subscribed to your channel really enjoyed this honest review on the Tiger 900
@MotoBikerMike I had a Harley before , and a dry weather rider, until now, my new moto is ride more , clean less now can't wait for The Adventures in 2025
Just wondering, is there room for adjusting the angle and forward/aft a bit? I would actually prefer it a bit more upright if possible if it doesn't buffet the front of the bike at higher speeds.
@@markschmitz8575 yes you can adjust the angle easily, I found making it more upright brought it closer to the bike/towards the rider (if that makes sense)
@MotoBikerMike Thanks. You haven't by chance tried any windscreens with 4 point mounting that work on a Speed Twin 1200 have you? I'm a bit worried about shaking on rough roads. Hanging way out there on 2 mounting arms is a bit stressed for a windscreen. I'm concerned that the Custom II might move after a few bumps.
@ I didn’t I’m afraid. I probably allowed 20mm gap between the screen and headlight, to allow for going over bumps and the screen jumping up and down 👍🏼
@MotoBikerMike Yeah, I figured it would jiggle. I wish these companies would get off of their collective asses and make a decent 4 point system. Boo Hooo... Let's all blame it on COVID!
I have an 08 one and prefer the circular headlights. That sound is so addictive though, no matter the year.
Yes David - it's a glorious noise that never fails to excite me! :-D
Looks very good...doesn't detract from the bike at all. I just wish I'd seen that before I fitted my Puig Plus screen on my T120, which although bigger than the Dart, doesn't really do much at all...... Just done a comparative size check and the Plus is quoted as being taller and wider than the Custom 2! Certainly doesn't look it..........
@@lauriebloggs8391 Thanks for the comment Laurie, I wonder if the angle of the screens might be different. The Plus definitely looks bigger and more equipped to shield against wind buffeting
@@MotoBikerMike Time to get my eyes sorted then! 🙂 I have tried a spoiler on the Plus, but the blade is not wide enough at the top for clamps... 😞
Beautiful machine 😍I own thanks God a street triple 675r and I love it ❤️
@@georgeiftime6615 awesome George! I share that feeling with mine, never fails to make me smile and laugh in my helmet 😝
Horrible attachment method. Someone should make a nice black replacement for the headlight bracket that takes different size screens.
@@jimbrowsing5690 Did you mount a Puig Custom II? Did it shake and bounce with the two point attachment to the bars? Ever did you mount it on? A Speed Twin 1200?
Hi Mark, I did have a little bounce when going over uneven ground. I ensured there was a 2cm gap between the screen and the headlight, this was enough to compensate the movement up and down. Hope that helps :-)
Great video, thinking of getting one for my t100. Thanks for the review. Love the blurring out of the speedo so had to read it in the reflection 😂
@@tonyfrewin4822 haha thanks Tony! Glad the video helped 🙂
Excellent video! I just bought a 2016 street twin 900 and I've been looking for a windscreen for longer rides. I'm stoked to have found your video, which is exactly what I was looking for!
@@scotts133 that’s great to hear, pleased to help! Enjoy that awesome bike, and you should report back to let us know how you get on with your screen 👍🏼
谢谢你的这个视频,我也是凯旋SpeedTwin1200拥有者,我也很喜欢这款车!最近也在寻找一款风挡,你的视频让我找到了最适合的一款,再次感谢,已关注!
I'm glad it helped :-)
Hi I've been driving a Honda CB1000R SC60 for five years. I would like to change to a Triumph. Will the 675r be a good choice? I like it very much, but I'm worried that switching from 1000cc will be boring
@@matimateo6932 I would say you’ll have nothing to worry about switching to 675r. You’re saving around 25kg on weight, so power to weight ratio is similar, but you’ll feel a lot more nimble on the 675r, carving corners a lot easier. And the induction noise over 8k revs will keep a smile on your face that’s for sure! 😁
❤❤@@MotoBikerMike
I notice the changed rear suspension. Can you do a video?
@@user-fv1576 the rear shocks were a game changer with this bike! Yes I will do a walk around video of the parts added and spend some time looking at those lovely YSS shocks 👌🏽
Subscribed. What about buffeting noise levels?
@@user-fv1576 thanks for subscribing! No buffeting noise to report 👍🏼 I’m 5ft 7, 29in inseam, so not overly tall over the bike. If you were taller the screen has adjustment, so could angle it to suit I think
This looks AMAZING ❤
Doesn't seem to be much manufacturing in 'Factory ' Sad they don't make bikes anymore. When they started in the 90s they had one of the most advanced motorcycle manufacturing plants in the world!
There was quite a bit of manufacturing - crank shafts, crank and engine cases, fabrication, painting - well worth a look David :-)
Is good to hear. Hopefully they will bring more manufacturing back to UK. Have gone back to a air-cooled Bonneville after a disappointing experience with my Street twin. Have had 6 Hinkley made Bikes without any issues.
Love my street triple 675 with arrow
Awesome, a perfect match 👍
It does have a lovely sound to it!
Very addictive! 😁
Love my 2014 Street Triple 675R. I prefer to ride it more than my 2012 Ducati Diavel, which is a great bike in it's own right.
@@Buddha-ci8fz very light and flickable in comparison to your Diavel I’m guessing? The Diavel is a lovely example of a Ducati, I’ve always wanted to ride one 👍🏼
Hi. I drive a Honda CB1000r from 2008, modified motorcycle, ECU flash. After five years, Minsie got bored. I really like the Street triple 675r and rx. What do you think about this change? Will the Triumph be too weak after switching from 1000cc? what appeals most to me is the low weight of the Triumph. thank you for your help
Hi, thanks for your message. I think it's a very worthy option, you'll be going from an inline 4 to the inline 3 - so you'll have to bear that in mind. That said - I think you would love the howl from the triple engine and the raw induction noise. You'll be coming down a few bhp (130bhp to 106bhp) , but also dropping around 30kg in wet weight which might negate that a bit - however, I think you will enjoy taking this lighter bike out and taking on the corners - the power delivery is pretty linear, so no fun lost in the low/mid or higher rev ranges. Hope that helps! Let us know how you get on!
Looked a gorgeous day for it. Bike sounds epic! Was so close to buying a 2016 Daytona 675 instead of the Ninja. You’ll have to show me where these roads are!
Without a doubt! Some good twisties there
What a noise!
@@crashmania4019 couldn’t agree more! Such a lovely soundtrack to ride to 👍🏼
Great video! Very helpful cheers bro 👊🏽 What’s next ok review? Have you tried the deflector..
@@rjhaddon11 I’ve got a video coming soon showing how to lift the speed twin in the air with the Abba stand plus a look at the new Beeline Moto 2 👍🏼 I’ve not tried the windscreen deflector (yet!) 🙂
I like the screen personally. It doesn’t detract from the look of the bike. Looks like a good fit and a great choice!
@@matthewemmerson2258 Thank you mate, I agree, I’m pleased with it!
