It was a bit like the Spanish Inquisition, wasn't it? I'd been looking at getting the 620 and all of a sudden, a friend of mine calls me full of excitement to say that the 695 is out. Top marks to Daytona, Ruislip for reserving it for me over the phone for over a week with no guarantee of purchase (no deposit either), when they could have sold it several times over, it being the only 695 they got. I have to say it does look a lot smarter than the 620, so I'm glad I didn't buy it earlier!

I find that it's a bit too tall for me, being just a wee female. I did ask for the seat to be lowered as much as they could, but I'm not sure if this is the case. I'll need to get my other Monster riding friend to have a look for me. It's just a bit too heavy if it starts to lean and I only have my toes to keep it steady.
