Looking to make a purchase for a new 09 M696 this spring and I thought Id join to get info on this awesome motorcyle!
Welcome Bullet. It's gonna suck to have to go all the way to TO for service. You really should test ride the bike before you "plonks" down the $$$. Ducati normally do demo days, and you would surely get to ride the 696. Everyone lobs up looking to ride the D16. Oh you need at least an M2 to ride at Demo Day.
Cheers
Mark
Welcome aboard bullet [thumbsup] I honestly didn't like the looks of the 696 till I seen one in person. (looks real good live)and really happy with how it progresses the Monster line.
See you on the road in Spring. [moto]
Happy Holidays
