Honda gone, new Monster in garage

finally got rid of that Honda Shadow 750, was uncomfortable riding around at 80+ so I went around and looked for a Ducati, Lord knows I want one so bad haha.

I called NPR Ducati and they said they had a lil monster in inventory for a low price, already modded (saves me money) so I went by and fell in love with it, and i gotta be honest, whatever the last owner did to it, hes awesome, that bike hauls ass, litterally..

I brought it home after a few trips to Athens from Warner Robins (real PITA on my honda, felt better driving back on the Monster) and took it on a road trip to south GA with some buddies of mine, I love this motorcycle to death, I wont part with it..

Thanks Paul B. for helping me get my Monster!

I think it will, I've put 17,000 miles on my 696 with no issues and get about 50 mpg.

17k is low miles to me lol, Ive already put 300 on it in the past 2 days. I'm hoping it gets to 100-200k under good care haha. and yes I do get around the same mpg as u, somewhere in the 45-55 range depends how I rev it
