why don't we keep this thread about 696 bashing and you guys can discuss that issue in a different thread or by PM.

I thought "The Ron" and 696 Bashing was the same topic... it's been for a while...hasn't it? 

[DEVO!]

I test rode one yesterday when I picked up my plunger, I like the way it looks the handle bars are closer the brakes are great but for some reason I like my 695 better. it just seems to me like the same bike in a different package. Its set up for my weight (150 pounds) but it just didnt feel right, it accelerates the same it handles the same. The sales guy told me they are comming out with an 1100 version of the 696 and that the S2 will be discontinued. I think I will try and get an S2 1000 next year if there are any left.
I really like the way the 696 looks but it was kinda of a let down.

Sooo...I ve been to the dealer yesterday with a friend and we made the big A/B comparison.
I have to say it feels a lot better than it looks.
All the tech mods are fine with me but I still think its an ugly piece of plastic crap.
The also got new 848s in white and red and hey, thats a real Ducati in my opinion.
But...my friend is 1,65 and he was very happy with its even smaller proportions.
So pretty soon I can bash it in real life I think

The more pics I see posted of it, the more I f*ckin' hate it. It actually manages to make the sv650 and Buell Blast look quite attractive.

i agree, that is the ugliest bike i have ever seen. I dont like anything about it. I would rather ride any jap bike out there, for some reason it looks like one of those pug nose dogs.  I dont see why anyone would spend good money on something like that, but i guess each his own.
