i sold my gsxr as most of you know, and im ready to try something new ahh bike shopping is so much fun! but this time im not going to buy on an impulse
i cant tell if i hate it or love it, ive come across a bunch of them and they’re like 6 grand for an 04 with 5kish miles
bad things: no one sided swing arm like most ducatis
neutral: v twin, makes 110whp but has more tq than my 1000, 82!!
good: not a lot of them, i think its pretty bad ass, and theyre not expensive
not sure of: maintenance on ducatis??
here’s a pic, i think its the headlight i cant get over
I don’t think I’ve seen this bike before, but it looks awesome. I’ve always loved the 848’s and 1198’s too. Are you saying you don’t like the headlight? For me, the headlight on the gixxer’s are what always killed it for me. I always thought they looked kinda stupid. The headlight on this Ducati is pretty cool looking I think.
edit- That price seems pretty damn good too for the age and miles considering it’s a DUC.
My buddy has a newer 1098(i think thats the model) sick gorgeous bike. Maintenance on em is a mofo, especially shit ya gotta have a dealer do, major moola! beautiful bikes-IF you got the cash to spend!
i think there beautiful bikes, but like everyone says there a expensive to keep up!
the Kaws are also the most powerful for there class. i really liked the 03 636 RR i think it was.
Maint intervals on these are like 7k miles… or less maybe… valve adjustments, etc etc = big money…
its slower, more expensive, and not very comfy for trips…
go see if you like it when you go ride it… otherwise… i suggest you quit making horrible decisions…
