It was the shock mounting clevice from a 1100/796 that raised the 696.
That generation have the engine mounted much higher in the frame. Enormous numbers of chain slack - less catastrophic with the progressive spring, but still.... Big surprice that Ducati make that kind of mistakes.
Positive effect of a higher rear could be a relatively lower front. Quicker steering. My limited experience with 696/1100 is that they DO NOT need changes to the geometry. The original Monsters on the other hand - MUST be modified.
