Getting a Ducati 696 tonight! The train says *WooT Woot*
Recently been thinking of getting a new bike with more pep. Originally I wanted a Honda cb600f - Honda Hornet - then a friend showed me the Monster line up and I fell in love with the Ducati 696 Monster. This weekend I found one, checked it out, and today I'm picking it up after work. Super Stoaked!

That is a good looking bike! (and that is pretty much all that I can say about it because I know nothing about bikes

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

Visuals captured me at first, then it was the video reviews I watched, and the nail in the coffin was my friend's $0.02 who works at Coleman Power in Falls Church. I checked out some other nekkeds but the 696 Monster was like *SHWING SHWING*. As for the Craigslist owner that's a different story altogether....I had to beat him to death with his own shoes. nasty business really, but sure enough I'll get the 696 and go on to have a great ride.complacent wrote:baller!

Lol ahhhh man that is a good deal! You know how I know? Because I bought that Helmet 3 months ago for $469 before tax and that was with a hook up that even beat the original price from motorcyclecloseouts.com. Well if you come across a deal on a white Icon Accelerant perforated leather jacket please let me know as I am in the market, but can't find it cheaper than $390 anywhere.sirwilliam wrote:Protect your head with this good deal on a helmet: $320 SHOEI RF-1100 Monolith Full-Face Motorcycle Helmet

I am sure I will find a deal 3 months after you buy them but I will keep a lookout for you.STiLe wrote:Lol ahhhh man that is a good deal! You know how I know?
