Title: What happened to the M695? Post by: jc2ducati on February 03, 2010, 07:23:23 AM Hi, i am a new owner of a new to me M695 or ducatis in general. I guess I didn't do enough research, but i guess the model was short lived. Can anyone point me to what the reason for its short production life was?
Also, related to the above, few of the online stores, if any, seem to carry any 695 parts or mods anymore. Am i limited to only finding used parts for the bike then? Is there a favorite retailer or online store for 695 parts out there? I was hoping to add just some simple protective devices (frame sliders?) for this bike and browse for some others, but am having a hard time locating anything for this particular bike. Thanks for any insights! Jay Title: Re: What happened to the M695? Post by: WetDuc on February 03, 2010, 07:33:42 AM I find lots of stuff for my M695 on monsterparts.com, rizoma website, ducati omaha and ducati seattle website, desmotimes website.
I'm not sure why they only made it for two years. A lot of the stuff from any monsters previous to 2009 will fit the 695. Title: Re: What happened to the M695? Post by: Maratom on February 03, 2010, 08:56:10 AM Lots of, maybe even all, parts that fits the 620 will fit your 695.
Other people here on this forum can probably give you some more info. By the way, congrats on the bike. Grtz. Title: Re: What happened to the M695? Post by: Slide Panda on February 03, 2010, 09:30:37 AM The majority of parts that will fit a dual sided swing arm monster will fit another. Not all, but a whole lot. Exhausts slip-ons, rearsets, bars etc.
Why so short a run? I don't really know. But, the 695 wasn't particularly unique - as noted, it's almost identical to the 620. Title: Re: What happened to the M695? Post by: junior varsity on February 03, 2010, 09:35:23 AM It was essentially the big bore kit equipped 620. It was short lived only because of the unveiling of the 696. It was an improvement of the 620 and a bit of a stop-gap before the newer small displacement Ducati came out.
Its life isn't so short when compared to the 600 or the 620 Monsters. Title: Re: What happened to the M695? Post by: BK_856er on February 03, 2010, 11:48:03 AM I bought a ton of stuff for my M695 over the past few years. I can't really think of anything that was M695 specific, except maybe the termi kit. As mentioned above, lots of items cross with related models. The M695 is a seriously fun monster!

About the only thing I have left to do to mine is get the ECU reflashed, although at some point I'll probably get the shock rebuilt. As it is now, it handles great, stops and with the SIL/NCR titanium exhaust, sounds wonderful. Here's mine, S4 forks, 748 brakes and an ST2 shock really changed this bike for the better...

I loved my 695 and still ride it all the time (ended up selling it to the GF ;)) It is an extremely capable bike, even 2up. I modified mine pretty extensively.

Post by: WetDuc on February 04, 2010, 03:04:09 AM I haven't done anything to my 695 in terms of the suspension, but I do agree it is the only thing that is not so good about the bike.
All sorts of chopping and messing around. No major mods on mine yet. SSS, new suspension and big bore kit are in the future.

The 695 and 696 a bore and stroke of 88 x 57.2mm, compared to a bore and stroke of 80 x 61.5 mm for the 620. So the 695 has a larger bore and stroke compared to the 620.

[evil] idk about glorious... it's stupid loud, and a good for a laugh, and blatty enough to make the harley riding neighbor turn and look with envy for the source of the noise ok, so maybe it is glorious ;D Title: Re: What happened to the M695? Post by: Duck-Stew on February 04, 2010, 06:16:34 AM 57.2 is smaller than 61.5... Yup. ;) Bigger bore than the 620 (88mm versus 80mm) and a shorter stroke (57.2mm versus 61.5mm) means more power up top, more high rpm fun. The lower-end of the engine (I would suspect) is the same as the 696 engine just different cylinder barrels, cases and heads. So, to denote the difference, Ducati changed the number from 695 to 696. That...and that new frame. >:( Title: Re: What happened to the M695?

Post by: Travman on February 04, 2010, 06:38:52 AM Sorry, I didn't mean to cause any confusion. I was in a hurry when I wrote that 695 had a bigger bore and stroke. I was just trying to point out that both the bore and stroke were different from the 620. I came back to correct the statement, but was too late.
Nice 695 pictures. I still like all the blacked out parts (like the swingarm & rearsets) that the 695 had. I almost bought a lightly used one back in 2007, but the dealer wanted to update the ECU and couldn't get the part for several weeks or months. So I backed out. Title: Re: What happened to the M695? Post by: jc2ducati on February 04, 2010, 06:43:00 AM All this info is great. I definitely like the more "naked" looks on the 695. The 696 is beautiful stock but has more "plastic" pieces it seems, too. I haven't seen a 696 in person, yet, though. I guess i didn't want to tempt myself with a visit to the local ducati dealer! :P
I agree about complaints with the suspension. I only have some 30 miles on it so far. i did notice the fronts seem a bit klunky to me and my rear spring may be too stiff. This is just riding around potholes so far. no knee scraping yet. Unfortunately, I know little about suspension tuning - will have to work on that. I am curious about where are your rear springs set at? Mine seem to be set at almost full compression on the rear. Finally, I read about some of those 695 to 696 changes here: http://www.motorcycle.com/manufacturer/ducati/2009-ducati-monster-696-review-77793.html (http://www.motorcycle.com/manufacturer/ducati/2009-ducati-monster-696-review-77793.html) Quote Still serving as a stressed member in the frame is a revised L-Twin engine that, oddly, retains identical bore and stroke (88 x 57.2mm) from the 695. Go figure on 696; must be one more way to disassociate the bikes. A reshaped cylinder and head, similar to those on the Multistrada and Hypermotard, optimizes flow to new ports. Further refinements see the camshaft's bearing surface directly in the new head. Get rid of actual bearings and you get rid of weight while simplifying design. Let's hope the baby of durability doesn't go out with the bath water of simplicity. Larger valves (Int. 43 to 44mm, Exh. 38 to 38.5mm) with higher lift (Int. 10.8 to 11.2mm, Exh. 10.3 to 10.8mm) are thrown in the mix. Cooling fins created in a new casting process have been reshaped, moved closer together and increased in number for improved, well, cooling. New side and belt covers finish off engine updates. didn't they redo the heads or something on the new 2V's (696/1100)? or did I just smoke some crack this morning?

Most moto-journalist eat up what the manufacturer tells them and regurgitate it to the public. Not only is there potential for durability issues, but it makes the heads impossible to rebuild if the cam journals are damaged or worn. It seems like a cost saving move.Still serving as a stressed member in the frame is a revised L-Twin engine that, oddly, retains identical bore and stroke (88 x 57.2mm) from the 695.

Post by: sbrguy on February 04, 2010, 08:28:37 AM if you dont' like the 695 suspensino get some used adjustable forks to put in them tuned to your weight, completely changes the bike, i may cost you 3-6 hundred after all is said and done but then you basically have a really nice handling bike, literally feels like a different bike.
Title: Re: What happened to the M695? Post by: Wonked on February 04, 2010, 09:25:40 AM I swapped out my stock forks for S2R1000 adjustable forks, also got a stiffer spring in the rear, termis/ECU/open airbox, apex clip ons, KTM headlight with custom bracket, bar end mirrors, speedymoto frame slliders... I think that about wraps it up.

Post by: BK_856er on February 04, 2010, 07:24:55 PM Hay BK did you notice much of an engine temp drop after the oil cooler was installed ? If so how much? dez The cooler definitley helps keep the temp down. I posted the numbers after the initial rides a year or two ago. From memory it was a drop of about 10%, plus the temp comes down more quickly if it's heated up a bit due to traffic/summer and you get rolling again. The DP ecu also helped a lot to lower the temps. Combine it all with a good full synthetic 10W40 oil and there are no worries. I had my cams degreed + ecu trim adjusted recently and it runs a good bit hotter now (but still not over 200F). I think the M695 really should have come from the factory with an oil cooler, but I suppose they wanted to keep costs down on the entry model. I used the Ducati cooler retrofit kit with all the bits and pieces. BK Title: Re: What happened to the M695?

I thought he meant the bar adaptors for the naked prototypes (er, every non-barend mirror) http://www.pjsparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=265&products_id=44 (http://www.pjsparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=265&products_id=44) Title: Re: What happened to the M695? Post by: Ranger06 on February 10, 2010, 12:27:58 PM Teddy, you are correct, that is the adapter I was referring too. without it, the mirror would stick straight up in the air and look rediculous

Title: Re: What happened to the M695? Post by: Maratom on March 28, 2010, 10:05:37 AM I think it's time to post some pics of mine.
There are still a lot of mods I'm planning to do but since the last mod (CF shortie hugger) it doesn't look that silly among some other 695ers overhere. Speaking of that CF hugger. I had to modify it with the dremel otherwise the chain would have taken a bite out of it the first run. Now that I think of it, I had to modify the CF fender (beertray) too to make it fit. Is that common or is my bike out of angle ? Anyway here we go : (http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m37/Maratom/Mijn%20Ducati%20Monster%20695/SDC11655.jpg) (http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m37/Maratom/Mijn%20Ducati%20Monster%20695/SDC11639-kopie.jpg) (http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m37/Maratom/Mijn%20Ducati%20Monster%20695/SDC11632.jpg) Ciao. |
