Looking forward to getting my new (2014) 696 next week for my 66th birthday. Will save me using my bus pass.

Welcome to the Forum Brian and if there's any info you need on the bikes let us know.

I'm guessing you're not new to biking ?

I've had the occasional bike. I like the Monster as it reminds me of a 1966 BSA Spitfire Special I had from new, fastest production bike of the day. It was red so that's probably where the similarity ends. My last Duke was a Darmah, but that was about 20 years ago.
If only I'd kept all the bikes I wouldn't have to keep working.
