Just wanted to say hi
I'm in San Ramon, CA, recently picked up a M696 Dark. Stock, but changed to 14T sprocket. Moving from a Suzuki DRZ 400 Dual Sport. Decided separate street and dirt bikes make sense. Spend a lot of winter time in Baja near La Paz. I went into the dealer (Ace Motorsports) looking for a Triumph Street Triple (none to be found), but the Monster felt just right. Have about 300 miles & love it. Had an oil leak at the filter due to a bad O ring, but the dealer fixed. Thanks to everyone for sharing all the information - these forums are great!!
