Any insight would be helpful.

Almost.....

I went to the dealer and looked at a 2007 1100 Red MTS. Though it wasn't the "S" model, it had 2 miles on it and he marked it down to $10,999, which I thought was a great deal. When it came to the "S" model, the salesman said that yes, the Ohlins are great, but if I don't plan on doing any track ...

Buying New vs Used

I've got a couple opportunities lurking my way right now. I've got a chance to pick up a 2004 1000DS (2000 miles) or 2005 1000DS (4400 miles). Since I don't know much about Ducati's engines and/or past problems, how safe am I for buying a bike from this year? They both have low mileage and seem to ...

Re: Buying a Multistrada....decisions....decisions....decisions.

The 2006 has the electric headlight adjustment--a feature I use a lot since I ride 2-up about 50% of the time. It is a PITA to adjust the headlight on 2007s and 2008s--I cannot forgive Ducati for getting cheap and dropping the feature. I actually prefer a wet clutch, but the dry does have its ...

Buying a Multistrada....decisions....decisions....decisions.

I was looking at some local dealers and I noticed a couple of them have some leftover inventory from 2006 & 2007, specifically the 1000 models. Some of them are still asking list pricing, but do I have more of a chance of getting a better deal since they have been leftover, especially the 2006? That ...

Re: Need more info before purchasing

I'm still waiting to get my bike back from more warranty work and then I will take it up to try to work a deal on it. If the deal works out, it will be after Thanksgiving before it happens. Currently waiting on parts to arrive for my bike before it comes back home. I really hope to get the bike ...
