So.... Thinking about swapping my 996 for something a bit swifter and this 1198s has popped up. Feel like it's a fair amount of bike for the money... What's wrong with it? And changing worth while? https://www.jemspeedshop.co.uk/showroom/ducati/1198s/81354.htm Thanks in advance
It will be a lot faster. More comfortable (probably). Value won’t hold out as well. Harder to work on. (A bit)
17,000 miles and only part history is enough to ring the cash register for me. I'd be budgeting £1,250 for a proper dealer desmo service on top of the purchase price. Andy
The 1198 is alot quicker than your 996. But as bradders says the 996 is a classic and only going up in value. The 1198 prob won't be as reliable either.
You know as soon as you’re asking someone to put you off it’s the wrong decision but you’ll do it anyway. Enjoy your new bike.
