| I had a 1998 748 and did not have any problem with her. But I was only doing very little mileage though...
I believe later models around 99 or 2000 or even better because they feature the modified rockers which are supposed to not have any chrome pealing issues ... well in fact they still have the issue and just last that little longer though!
Generally speaking don't necessarily try and get the cheapest possible bike or the latest possible one... just a bike that has been very well looked after is what you should aim for. Just expect that a Ducati requires more looking after than a basic Japanese bike, but then the reward riding her is also something very different. So you'll get over it!! |
