I went to the other side of the pond.
I hope you will still treat as family.
Thanks to all, I really appreciate all the help you've all given me.
I still be attending the Ducs meet at Marin. See you there.
All you guys are awesome!

regards,
Lito

Oh when he first posted it just said, his 696.. he edited afterwards :D

*EDIT*
Oh wouldn't that be the same side of the pond as the Duc's?

*DOUBLE EDIT*

I guess I'll see you over on www.Triumph675.net if you start tearing off parts for upgrades think of me, I need back ups for my track bike.

It's always the other side of the pond unless you're in England.   [cheeky]

If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room

I think your first thing to do should be upgrade to some Ohlins forks... you know for better performance. Maybe a carbon fiber gas tank?

You really wanted a sport bike.  Too bad you didn't get yourself one right away, coulda saved yourself a big hit on what you lost on the monster.  But then you wouldn't have meet all of us :)

Good luck and keep the rubberside down!
I love my RED 620!

Oh, we'll treat you as family.

You know-the kind that tells each other off.


That is WAY too much bike for you. What was wrong with the 696?

Nothing wrong with the 696.
I'm sure there's something wrong with my head.

Pond, no.  Channel, yes!   ;D  Post some pics already!!!

Anyways, that is a big step up in performance from a 696 but it is a pretty civilized package that is easy to ride.  I hope it treats you well and you enjoy it.

And I'll get in line 2nd for the forks and callipers if you ever change them.

The Daytona's a great bike. But still too much for someone just starting to ride  ;D

Be careful on that thing. And yeah, stick around. We don't discriminate...well, unless you ride a Harley  [moto]
