I'd like one of them - but if they are the same height as the last 2 years Monster range, then I'll still have to keep my existing monster (which I do love, but equally love the looks of the proposed HM) and NO Ducati - I dont want the smaller engined version

Maybe Ducati should check as to how many DP lowered seats they are now having to sell for the Monster range (or check the forums as to how many have to get the existing cut down) - and then think about how many sales they might be losing to people purely cos of the height issue alone (with salesmen not mentioning the replacement seats - or shops not having them on for folks to try).
Snotty (2001 M600) is far lighter than Tango (2005 M620) and also shorter by 1 & half ins too.
