'09 Monster 696 (Dark)
Just stated riding and the 696 is my first bike.
Still doing the break-in period and looking on what to mod, though the first thing are the mirrors.
I run a custom metal fabrication shop, and looking through the mod page is giving me lots of ideas. 

Welcome Tony, you've been bitten by the modding bug already I see!

Glad you are enjoying the 696, we'd love to see pictures if you have any.

Howdy and welcome Tony,
congrats on your first ride. We love to see some of your mods once you finish.
