Hello everyone, my name is Chris, i am from Greece, i am 28 years old and i currently live in Birmingham. I am in love with the 696 since it came in production in 2008,unfortunately the econimical crisis did not let me fulfil my dream but i have never stopped thinking about it. So, here i am in uk now, working, trying to build a new life and trying to acquire the monster of course I popped up at the ducati store in wolverhampton to check the new trioption finance , since getting a new monster for 89 pounds per month seemed an amazing idea, but once again i meet obstacles in fulfiling my dream since i am not eligible for the trioption because you have to live in uk for at least 3 years, whereas i live for 3 months I will try to save some money and hopefuly i will get a used one by next year. So if anyone knows a decent 696/796 or 1100 with the dry clutch, give me a shout. Safe rides, Chris
Hello again everyone! I am officially a monster owner! Did a massive leap though, since in my first post i was looking for a 696/796 and today i bought a brand new 1200!!! As Ducbird said, all good things come to those that wait! The funny thing is that according to the banks im not "reliable'' enough to be given a finance because i have been uk resident for only a year and their minimum requirement is 3, but within that year i managed to gather all the money and bought it cash!
Here are some photos of her. Her name is Eva and we have done 40 miles so far. Lets see if anyone will spot anything ''unusual'' on the pics.
