Title: New 696
Post by: monster696 on June 01, 2008, 05:24:40 AM
It finally came in and picked it up yesterday. I need to hurry up and break this thing in so I can open it up. Nothing special yet, just the upgraded seat, adjustable break/clutch levers and Carbon Termis and front fender on the way. Stock cans actually sound good.
;D  ;D

Thanks for the welcome. Got it out this weekend on on 1431 to Marble Falls and Park Road 4.
250+ miles in the first 2 days.  ;D and I had a hard time getting off to cut grass and other crap I had to do. 

Ran really nice in the tight sections of Park Road 4. Steering damper will be an addition soon. [thumbsup]

I wasn't quite sure where every one was, but would've like to.
I did see a Monster on 1431 on Saturday heading east about 2pm.  8)

Thanks and yes it does. The rear cowl is installed on the touring seat in the photo. Fit is good.

You would just plain suck if you did... That is one righteous machine!
