I just took delivery of a very slightly used (650miles) 2009 Monster 696 this week. This is my first road bike, but I have ridden for several years off-road back when I lived in the country. I have a set of Carbon Fiber Termi's on order as well and look forward to learning more and chatting with all of you. Here she is, in low quality iPhone picture mode last night. She has nice company in the garage too!

Welcome to the board!
Good call with the Termis [thumbsup]
