[659nate]

Hi guys and gals,

I'm Nate, I have just signed up to this forum as it appears to be the best place to meet other Duc riders and gain knowledge and expertise as I go.

I'm a mechanic by trade but was smart enough to get out, life gave me a nudge. Been riding for 6 years mostly on dirt 2 on the road. Spent two years on a zxr250 throwing it around learning an having fun.

I just wanted to say hi! I brought a 2013 659 Monster 4 days ago, Currently have no license but a few track days lined up before I get it back.

I guess my first question for Monster owners is, How good are they are holding up to wheeliees?

What typically breaks if anything?

Look forward to chatting

No it's a 659 LAMS version of the 696. Every thing is the same but a longer stroke and a restriction in the throttle body which prevents you getting WOT.
