Well...it looks fine on first impressions...one owner, all the relevant services carried out by known dealers. The current owner seems to know his stuff.
But the real proof is seeing the bike in the flesh and talking to the owner face to face! Is the guy a ducati nut...does he eat/sleep/drink Dukes like most of the other sadits on this board
. You can tell a lot about the bike by the owner and his attitude towards servicing etc. Does he use fully synth oil (ie expensive) and change it regularly, or does he skrimp on this?? Does he know about the rocker problems...have they been checked? Any average duke owner knows this as a problem, and will have had it checked at some point...particularly on a bike with 11k on the clock.
You've really got to go and see it, and have a chat. Do not be afraid to walk away however, as there are lots of Dukes about for sale at the moment, and some real bargains and well looked after bikes out there if you are prepared to look a little.
I can't comment on the price as I have a 748 '97, so any comparisons I can draw on price are irrellevant!
