Title: Hello. New to Board
Post by: sroberts152 on November 19, 2008, 10:21:40 AM

Just a quick introduction.

I'm a Bay Area boy, born and raised. I have been riding for about 11 years now and have had all sorts of bikes from a 1957 Triumph T110 chopper to Japanese sport bikes to a Confederate Hellcat. My last bike was a 2006 Triumph Thruxton that was totaled when someone decided their cage needed to be where I was.

I now have a 2009 696. I got it June 6 and just rolled over 4300 miles. My last Ducati was a '95 900 SuperSport with all the upgrades that could have been done to it - from engine bore to 944 to carbs to Nichols lighter and sturdier everything to complete carbon bodywork (I was the third owner and all the work was done before I got it).

I love my 696. I love riding. I hope I have some input to give. I know I am going to have questions too.
