HAMSANDWICH selling his bike 

[Holden]

Old news.

Good luck with the sale!

Thanks guys, I'm really wanting to do some trips and cannot bear the ball crushing capabilities of my 696 over long periods of time. Really wish I could keep it and buy a trip bike, but finances won't allow.

Old news.

Good luck with the sale!

You should ride it a little more.  At least 5k miles.  250 miles isn't enough to make a fair judgment.

+1 250 miles is a fairly short ride!

Nice looking bike though.

does anyone make mounting brackets for the 696 cluster yet? I really dread this part of installing the custom headlight.

You can just use a piece of sheet AL (not too thin) and cut it and bend it yourself.
My first one I used too thin and make some smaller cuts that eventually failed (at speed  ) but the second one was with AL diamond plate that is pretty solid.
