New Monster Owner

[OstOgBajer]

I just posted this in a local club forum but then saw the introduction forum... so here we go:

EDIT: And just saw the guide to introductions, so here we go again:

Name: Brian
Location: San Antonio, TX
Bike(s): 2007 Ninja 250, Monster 696
How long you've been riding: 3 months
Anything else you'd like to share: My copy/paste introduction from before:

Started riding a couple months ago and got a new white 696 as a x-mas present for myself.

Just put 500 miles on the 696 and i've already got the itch to personalize it. I have the CW fender eliminator, removed the bikini fairing and yanked off that horrible carbon canister. I have a Barracuda belly pan on the way and looking at the Mivv Suono slip-ons. Also plan on powder coating a lot of the silver parts of this bike black. Considering the 14t front sprocket too.

I've done a lot of lurking for info and advice and this seems like a pretty cool board, so I just may stick around

Welcome Brian and congrats on the new 696.

Sounds like you've already been bitten by the modding bug.  We'll expect pictures at some point.

Have fun, ride safe. [moto]

A fellow Dane?! I'm only half Danish though... and cheese and beer two of the very few words I know. Coincidentally, they are the only two words I need to know to get by in Denmark!
