Hi I am looking for at buying a ducati 749. Anyone selling? Can anyone shed some light at what to look out for in this bike, like how to tell if its regularly maintained, etc?
its very true that hiding is very tiring. sometimes after work or whatever so tired already, till need to think of reasons about what was done just before. so i suggest that it's better to let them know and do things in the open.
cool headed dude bro. like the saying goes, it always take two hands to clap. i thought a flaming war is going to start but you actually put out the fire.
Generally, check for visual damage or cover-ups due to some hidden past. Check thoroughly and take your time. If the seller got nothing to hide then he won't be afraid that you check carefully. Check for signs of wear and tear and also rust on parts like forks. Check the electronics to ensure that its working good also. IF you are unsure, ask someone experienced to go along with you.
we as paying consumers, should make our every penny worth. If you have any questions, unsure, even the slightest where to check what, jut ask the instructors. They are obliged to help us to pass, and most of them are more than willing to do that.
