My name is Bill from Queens, NY. Have my motorcycle license but no bike 

Been riding all my life - dirt bikes as a kid, my dad's Honda cruisers until my 20's and then I got married. So about 10 years later I'm in the market for a Monster 696. Can't wait to get it and will be doing a lot of research in this site.

Welcome Bill, nice to have you join us!

When you get a chance, also stop in at your local board, NYMMC, and introduce yourself there.

Good luck in your hunt for your 696!  I see you've already been asking questions in General which is a great place to start.

Looking forward to your updates once you find your Duc.

Thanks for the welcome! I'll definitely intro myself in the NYMMC board. Very excited to start my search. When I sat on the 696 at the dealer, it just felt right....Thanks again!

Hey Bill,

I just joined this site yesterday.  I live in Nassau, and work in LIC/Astoria.  I just rode in to work today on my 2010 Dark 696.  My Boss's are Jealous!

Just go buy one!
