Finally a dream come true :)

Hey everyone, I just bought my first bike AND my first Duke !
I just had to wait until I could afford a M696, I'm sure most of you will understand.

I hope you wont mind my rookie (both as a rider and a ducatista) questions

All the best !

Kerem

Hi Kerem it is a pleasure to have you on board. The 696 is a great bike - as are all Monsters ( even the ones with a big fat radiator on the front!)
Ask all the questions you want .
And wecome to

A big welcome to the club and don't worry about asking any questions you may have.

Hello and welcome, I've got a 696 and its a great bike, don't worry about asking any questions, I've been on this forum for six years and I still have to ask how to change an indicator bulb.

Unscrew the single screw on the rear of the unit and remove cover/ lens. Then remove the bulb with an anti clockwise twist. Refit in an opposite manner.

Ps welcome to the club. You will find us helpful and sarcastic at times . Great first bike.

Welcome to the slightly mad world of owning a Monster!! It's very addictive!

I like my radiator. It keeps me warm.

Good choice Kerem. I use mine to get me to work in Solihull so I might see you about.

I think checked out many times a SR4 parked near the Mell Square ? Would that happen to be yours ?
I'll definitely say hello next time !

That one isn't mine, I leave mine in the work carpark nearby. I'll look out for you though.
