Hello. Not my first Ducati but my first Monster. A 696+, 2013. No abs. Live in Suffolk. Photo to arrive shortly.

Welcome aboard to the best of the Ducati owners' forums (and therefore the best of all the owners' forums!).

Lots of ideas on here on how to mod your bike and plenty of help on hand too, when you need it.

Look forward to seeing the photos...

Hi Barbara.
Welcome to UKMOC.
Great choice of bike!
14T front sprocket is a cheap and easy mod which really smooths the bike out. (Lose a bit of top end though).

Hello and welcome, what Duc(s) have you owned before?

Welcome to the forum Barbara.

Welcome Barbara, what part of Ipswich are you in? I lived in Hadleigh for a while and my son was born in Ipswich so I've got fond memories of the place!

Hello Barbara.
We are reasonably active in East Anglia and have a few meet ups in Norfolk, Cambs, Beds and Lincs. Any excuse to get together for a chinwag and a ride out.. Usually Aircraft orientated as it happens but anything goes.

There's a unique one coming up in Suffolk near you in September if you fancy a trip to Orfordness Lighthouse?

Unfortunately numbers are limited on this one as I had to pre-book early this year.
You need to put your name down here if you are interested. http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...ad.php?t=57318
