Mid-1990s version of the carburetted Monster 900, continuing the original formula: 904 cc air-cooled desmodromic twin, trellis frame, inverted forks and minimal bodywork. The reviewer praised its quick steering and strong midrange, and its easy access to the engine for valve adjustment. Fairing and tail-light accessories were offered to address the lack of wind protection.
