Title: Well I bought one
Post by: duclvr on November 04, 2008, 04:14:21 PM
After looking and obsessing over the purchase, I pulled the trigger on a Monster 696 In Black.
I pick it up tomorrow.

I am very excited.  [thumbsup]

Mostly the reason I got one. I lived in CT all my life. But moved to S. Florida about 4 months ago.

It's a little different to have a 12 month riding season

Where in S. FL??  I was living in Jupiter for awhile.  Loved it down there..except for the lack of roads made for riders on Ducs!!

Look out for those new laws too!!

There are a few laws down there about keeping both wheels down, and where you can and can't put your license plate... there's a thread around somewhere on the board.  A quick search should find it.

Got it Thanks. I remember reading that. Not anything that I would have to worry about. (I think  ;) )
There was a guy in my BRC class that was sent there after getting a ticket. He did not get
any huge fines though. He also never had his endorsement.   :P

Grew up in Middletown, but moved to the shoreline (Branford, Guilford) for the last eight years.

My wife is orginally from San Diego.
