Awesome video. Thanks! I'm looking to buy a 2021 Ducati Monster 659 (LAMS), which only has 585km's on the Odometer. Any advice you can offer before I pull the trigger?

"Stuff like that" seems to be the method of inspection in Australia.

We need you in Melbourne fantastic man great interview

Thank you, George from the northern hemisphere.

so hard to understand the accent

To noisi. Cheep produktion

My yamaha's can take a pounding, pick right up and ride em home! Seems those Ducati's can't handle falling over, a motorcycle needs to handle more than that for me to ride it, happily!!

The one little thing that has kept me from buying one of these wonderful machines is the valve adjustment. I have a few friends that own more than one Ducati, one of them owns 5 of em… but none of these guys has ever had their valves adjusted. As a result, they end up, not riding the bike because they are overdue for that service. I was chatting with another motorcyclist that was millimeters away from buying a brand new Ducati. This was around 1994. This guy ended up buying a Yamaha 750 FZR or whatever it was called… The reason he Changed his mind in the closing room when signing papers just before buying the Ducati. The dealer said that he would do the first valve adjustment for only $4000. another sign of difficulty with the valves on Ducati’s I know a guy name Bill that worked at the same Yamaha dealership I worked at. Years past and he ended up working at a Ducati dealership. We bumped into each other at a bike gathering one night. He told me about a group of Ducati owners, just outside California, that hire him to fly from Pittsburgh PA out to San Francisco to service six Ducati’s that are privately owned.. they fly him and his tools first class round-trip, they rent a car for him, and he gets to stay at a gorgeous home on the coast. It is free to use the JetSki‘s. all expenses paid.. on top of that, they pay him to service these Ducati’s

What specifically about mileage ? ..is a mid 2000s garage queen under 3k miles a good buy ?..which is better Low miles older bike or high miles newer bike? Thanks great vid

Good God turn off the air compressor or what ever it OFF !

I have only bought used Ducati’s. Have owned 7 of them. And they have all been excellent bikes. A large majority of Duc owners are older men who take care of nice things so I have had very good luck. Most kids can’t afford these bikes so that’s something to watch for.

These guys are veterans of Ducati i take my bikes with them for routine maintainance. pricey but quality. :D

Too much background noise

Worst audio ever.

Come on, checking forks and tires? I expected something specific. Thanks.

Duh, Cases. Get a fat guy to sit on it while you get out a flashlight and carefully inspect for hairline cracks between swing arm pivotal shift shaft. They used to leave the spider webs from forging them in the ferracci race bikes, to strengthen them. First year 999's had 996r rings in them to fix them from sucking oil out of crank and hydro locking heads. Of course don't expect perfect electronics, and most of the 916's came from balognia with 5 different shades of red. Different one each panel. First year 916's came with loose rear sprocket hub. Watch out for museum pieces, they may have original issues if not riden.

For all Ducati owners, important notice: carefully look under bike; if there is no oil under, there is no in machine neither 🤣

Idiots and Learners bike buying guide. What about specific to Ducati.

Good video but next time try to make it when there are no disturbing noises around the garage.

Can’t hear shit! F. U.

Your buying a second hand bike, not a new bike lol.

ua-cam.com/video/sx4EO6Sxa0Q/v-deo.html Most unreliable Ducati Shame on Ducati to launch such a product in 🇮🇳 India without any R&D. They are still in denial mode and absolutely clueless about the defect. Buying this Italian beauty has become a big pain for many. I came across atlest 5 motorcycles with exactly the same defect. Kindly watch this video and suggest if anyone knows a solution. Jai Hind and Ride Safe!

Just get a ninja, cbr, r6, gsx, never Italian because they’re slow

Too much bla bla and not enough facts. If you plan to do an informative video aimed at guiding people on how make a an informed and good investment of a substantial amount of cash, shoot the video when the working day is over and work according a clearly laid out factual plan.3 minutes usually is all that is needed.This video is soul crunching to sit and watch. I certainly did not watch it halfway to say the least. Go check your statistics to see how many viewers actually did. Not a good quality video. This video definitely did not offer any guidance on buying a duke. The topics touched here is basic at best. Besides this, how many replies to this video did you actually read after posting? Well, i dont see many replies from you to say the least proving you did and you value interaction with your viewers. This is my personal opinion. Do with it what you want. (no need to reply)

Skipped the video. Could not hear a word.

woo hoo, I'm in the 'light weight' range!

If you shoot video PLEASE eliminate the extra noise. I know it's a business and you're trying to do people a favor but it makes it near impossible to understand the person speaking. Good luck.

Check if it says made in ITALY then fucking run!

Definitely right abt the fuels the 996 loves 91

Love the way Australian talks...good information

Fresh post guys - TY. :)

what about a 2007 1098?

The only thing more expensive than a new Ducati is a used one.

shit sound bye bye

What a clean garage you have 👌

Good tips, but I heard nothing specific to Ducati. This should be done with all bikes. I recently bought a 2012 848 EVO in pristine condition with just over 1000 miles. Great find, but it obviously was't ridden much and sat for over 6 months except for occasional starts. After only a few hundred miles, a fork seal started leaking. Had to send to Ohlins. Had to replace the rear tire too. It was still beefy but the contact spot where it sat got weak. It bubbled out about the same time as the leak. I don't regret my purchase, just beware of the used bikes (and cars) that weren't really used.

I got a used Ducati to replace my 2001 ST2. it had 205.000 miles , loved it but wanted more touring capabilities! Here is the video, what do you think ?? ua-cam.com/video/r2p9mr19-QQ/v-deo.html 😎😎😎😎cheers !!!

u say check this check that but how to check if something is wrong or not is the important thing how to check the steering ? how do i check the forks? also a almost all bikes have been dropped so that isn't really something to look for dropped bike doesn't really mean anything if the bike has a only minor scratches

I think the point is more than just checking the obvious service history

I have a chance at. 2001 Duc 600. The guy says he did all the maintenance himself and is an auto mechanic. He’s asking 1500.00 Is it worth taking a shot at it?

almost fell asleep, ermmm mmm ermm

How to check over ANY motorcycle ever built, thought it might have been more about the engine ??? The Ducati needs TLC, advice about belt checks etc would be more appropriate for "Joe Public" !

alternative method--> throw a leg over and ride the fucker. dont putt putt around like a hipster in the city. crack the throttle open and conquer some nasty curves. now, if the bike passes that test, THEN you can do the rest of this bullshit. don't insult the seller by questioning his integrity when he tells you the bike has not been down or run low on oil, etc. if you are buying a bike that is > 10 years old and is higher mileage.....just plan on doing an engine rebuild. stop being pussies. oh....and dont ever evr ever buy from a chick....or a russian. russians are crazy and abuse the fuck out of their rides( skillfully though ). now....dont wanna follow my advice?.....then go purchase a Honda.

I was wondering... I just retired and looking forward to using my Ducati 1198 more often. The bike has not been ridden very often in the last 5 years. The duc has only 11k but most of the miles were put on my several very long cross country rides. I was wondering what I should do to my bike to get it running strong again.

Shit video, next time get the hell out of the shop

Two words for you: lapel microphone.

Should redo this video wearing microphone, good content, just really hard to hear with the shop air compressor turning on a lot in the background

These checks go for any bike!

Volume?

First thing you should check is whether the owner has all the keys (red, green, and black) and code card.
