Help me.....

[shebee]

I am being tempted to the dark side.. I went to look at a Honda msx125, that is not the problem. The dealership also sold other stuff and i have fallen in lust with the Ducati scrambler... That is the problem! Does anyone know anything about them reliability/servicing costs etc?

I like the look of them, but would probably go for the Monster instead (if offered the choice), as I think it has a better engine.

i love the styling of it , low seat height and the riding postion is pure hooligan... The credit card was screaming buy it! But i have managed to clear the card for the first time in years and i am being good.... So far!

Come back to the light.

DON'T DO IT!

The Ducati sales team have obviously been taking a leaf or two out of the HD book, and their marketing/PR side are currently the sleaziest tarts around.

They lost ALL street cred when they started doing this sorta shit in about 2012, I think it was, this is an actual advert from the Ducati magazine, and is camper than a row of tents, IMHO.


I can imagine Dick Emery lisping "trace me" whilst dressed in drag, think on that if you're old enough and still tempted!

Fair warning there Spyke.... Still resisiting at the moment and avoiding the dealership!

Seems a lady in Queensland doesn't like hers already.... http://www.bikesales.com.au/private/SSE ... bler-ICON/

Now call me a skeptic, BUT my experience of back operations is that they take blooming ages to plan and arrange, and I certainly wouldn't have dreamt of shelling out my hard earned on a brand new bike in the 2 months before or after having mine, so I get the funny feeling that this may be a bit of an excuse to sell a bike that only seems to have been registered since the 12th May and now has less than 1100 km/700 miles on the clock.....Seem legit?

If you wanna look like a hipster grow a beard!

Hmm, suspicious and bit far for me .... And i am still resisting!

I am not going to help you're cause much but ........ this bike grows on you the more you look at it. Give it a little while and if you still feel the same after a few more sleeps, go for it

[Spyke]

And don't forget I own one!

Remembering also that Ducatis now have a much longer service interval than the older models, reliabillity greatly improved also

[vassilis67]

How unfortunate....i would see a doctor about it. Ducatis can be a great danger for your health.

[norrie]

Ducatis are high maintenance but not that hard to work on if you're willing to have a go.

Don't like the standard one but there are a few concepts and specials that look cool.
The exhausts on modern bikes are horrible and yes I understand why, but please.
