Hi, all! I'm excited to be picking up my 2014 M696 tomorrow, replacing my tired old 2002 SV650 that I put 40,000 miles on in the past 6 years. Most of my riding is commuting with a little touring thrown in, expecting to do a little more this year since my GF also upgraded her bike from a CBR250r to a F700GS so we can travel with a little more comfort and style.
