Just placed a deposit on a 59 plate 696.

Looking forward to picking her up on the 12th. Hoping to learn a little more about them

Well welcome to the club and good luck with your new steed.

Weyhey - another new one, now I don't feel so new. Welcome!

Love that the profanity filter has blocked out where you live!

Hope you enjoy many happy miles on the new bike.

Welcome on board from another owner of a 59 plate 696 (though mine has now done 24,500 miles including trips to Italy & the Isle of Man as well as winter commuting so I suspect yours will look a lot newer and shinier!)

Welcome aboard!

Thanks for the welcome guys, I'll put some pics up in due course.
Went to see a standard 08 plate with 13k on just above my budget, ended up with the 59 with 2400 miles and a few extras. Spent far more than I intended.

Hi Flix
Welcome.
Don't start to think that you have already spent too much money on your bike. This is only the beginning!
It will take over your life, and your bank balance
