I've never heard that, but it could be true. I've never looked into that though. If I can find some info on it I'll post up.
interesting. just check ducati.com faq and it says only one year on parts IF the dealer installs. i bet there is more info elsewhere.

We just received these pictures of the QD Ex -Box for the M696: ![](http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e344/Motowheelscom/QuatD/QD696Xboxside.jpg) ![](http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e344/Motowheelscom/QuatD/QD696Xboxangle.jpg) Brian said we were going ot offer a pre-delivery discount on these--I'm not sure what the cut off date wil be because he is putting in an order for them today. Si it won't be for a long time. You can reach Brian at accounting@motowheels.com for more details. It is not on the website yet--but it will be up this week. -M

i agree with Raux. the exhaust looks out of place on the bike. the 696 is a totally new bike so it only seems right to have a totally new design for the exbox. it doesnt seem to flow well with the new lines of the bike at all. maybe it would look better on a single sided swinger, but not this monster thats for sure.

I think it would look better in black with a chin fairing. I like the open negative space between the wheel and the seat. -DirtyRonin

So other than the Termi's, has anyone had any real world experience with any of the other brands listed?? Are the others without the ECU really worth the money, or are they just bling? They range in price from $799-$1300 based on what they are made of. I'm leaning towards the Mivv Suono ($1200'ish), or the SC Project Carbon, which just popped up on Ebay, $950'ish delivered to the states.

The best thing about the Termi's is when you start the bike the display scrolls M696 RACING. Dont get that from those other ones! ![Grin](https://ducatimonsterforum.org/Smileys/classic/grin.gif)

The QD is not as nice as it is on the previous model... but it is not too bad... it is the down pipe that throws it off.
My buddy and I are looking to custom slip ons. I'll post pics when we are finished... think 1098

I'd love for somebody to come out with a cool looking undertail exhaust!!! Please post up when you're done!

Has anyone tried to modify the stock exhaust on the 696?
I know on some bikes, say Honda CBR 600RR simply punched out one baffle will make the stock pipe sounds quite a lot better. On the MTS, someone open up the stock exhaust (a lot of work) and modify the internals and weld it back up together. It sounds pretty good at the end.
Just wondering if anyone has tried something similar for the stock 696 exhaust?

I can't tell which looks better. the thinner Evo ![](http://www.sc-project.com/prodotti/ducati/monster_696/sc_project_monster_696_gp_evo_03.jpg) or the thicker Ovals ![](http://www.sc-project.com/prodotti/ducati/monster_696/sc_project_monster_696_oval_05.jpg)
