I bought a 2009 696. Thanks to all that posted in my original thread. I appreciate the advice and opinions! Yeah, I know, I need a new t-shirt!

Just so you know Kurt, not that there's going to be another Monster at Woody's bike night I may or may not decide to give you poor modding advice.  I can't have someone encroaching on my territory, you know?  Just a warning....... 

;D

BTW, I'd totally keep the stickers and the reflectors  [evil]

My last bike was a Thurxton.  I have that same Triumph shirt and love confusing people by wearing it when I am out riding my 696.  :D

Welcome.

Is there an unwritten rule you must wear matching brand name logo?

Brand loyalty, not that important.

I wish I could remember the comedian making fun of bikers with their matching colour bike and gear.   [laugh]

Try not to get bit by the Mod Bug, 'cause when it does get you, it will get you good!

Congrats! Go ride.  [thumbsup]

Hey Kurt,

Good job on the ride.  The t-shirt's okay but that flag needs some serious mods.  As a resident of the 50th state (and 36 others) I'm offended by the lack of stars.
