Glad you managed to find the bike you were after. An all standard model or had the previous owner played around with it ?

Hello and welcome
A good choice of machine, if I do say so myself. As J.P says - standard?

hi guys, thanks for the welcome

The bike has a few extras- carbon termi's+ ecu+ filter, tail tidy and carbon exhaust covers.

Not long now until i set off to collect it. Its a 2.5 hour drive each way so wont get home until 11 oclock but itll be worth it.

Is there anything i need to know, or anything that is a essential modification for a 696?
