I like the carbon belly pan for the Monster a lot. Do you have a picture of it on the bike? I didn't see one on your site.
It is sweeeet isn't it.
Unfortunately I do not have picture of it on a Monster yet (although it also fits the Hypermotard and I have pictures of it fitted on it here - http://bellissimoto.com/Hypermotardcarbon.html )
A long shot here, but the Cagiva Gran Canyon has an upswept pipe also, so perhaps the stock belly pan would also fit the 696? A few of us GC'ers are trying to find a supplier for replacements, maybe we will meet the needs of two bikes!
