Thought i would drop in and say hello. Not new to twins but new to Ducati. been riding a while now mainly Trumpies and harleys, after the last year on a heritage softail
classic the low performance and weight has really started to get on my nerves. looked at a sport classic a while ago but with a crook back didn't work for me. When i saw the 696 last week in person thought it was a fantastic looking bike,very light ..so i sold the harley and now waiting on the delivery on a black 696. Already ordered ss termis,14tooth sprocket, crg levers and crg ls mirrors and some suburban machinery m3 bars . I know the riding position is going to be a learning curve but cant wait. heres a pic of my hd if it works.cant say i am sorry of moving her on..catcha later everyone ........

welcome to the board!
hope you enjoy the new duc when it gets to you

Welcome and congrats on the new bike.   Looking forward to your ride report.
