Hi people, Ive just signed up after lurking for a bit because I have a querie for any of you in the know...
I am wondering what you guys consider to be the working life of one of these motors and boxes?
I personally have never bought a second hand bike with more than 10000km on it before; however I have noticed a local bike with 57000km on it up for sale!!!

Im wondering if it is a ticking time bomb, and whether these motors have proven to go well past that?

Thanks in advance for your advice/opinions...
 
57000 Kms .... It doesn't depend on the motor ... Depends on the previous riders and if all done according to Ducati maintenance schedule .... My advice check the record maintenance of it ... Check if it has been on any crashes ... Go for a ride and pay attention to any strange noises and before buying demand a complete check by a official Ducati dealer :) .... And you should not have any troubles ( 57000 Kms is near a big check that has to be done to the engine every 30000 Kms) .... I've seen a gen 1 diavel with 95000 on it and with zero engine problems ... Only one owner and all done according to Ducati maintenance schedule
