Ducati reviews

After riding 50 bikes my ducati scrambler has been by far my favorite. As a beginning it was perfect and as an advanced rider now it is still the best. It’s lightweight and easy to maneuver. I’m addition it is easily customizable which made my bike extra unique Show less

I love my ducati scrambler. Not only was it a great bike for me as a newer rider but as I got more experienced and rode other bikes, this still was my favorite over the years. Also, the customizations seem endless and rather simple which made my motorcycle unique! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Show less

Would like to start with the positives of the Diavel: Great bike, very easy and comfortable to ride! Powerful, Looks very good(my opinion). 3 riding modes that can switch on the run, sport very jerky at low speeds(gas is very sensitive) touring was best for me! still the 162HP but much smoother. Amazing keyless option, got used to it fast, miss it ever since. THATS IT! The bad? Big, heavy bike, its a long bike. absolutely no wind protection! So if you planning on long trips, must get aftermarket windshield at least. Use in the city? short commutes? bad idea, gets very hot FAST, terrible side exhaust pipes design, BURNS your right leg! Clunky chain(hits the swing arm) remove the plastic chain guide, got better but still there on bigger bumps. Mirror screw get lose, often. Very few shops agreed to work on it, its a ducati! Desmo service very pricey for what it is! Overall great bike if you can do the maintenance yourself. It was my second bike(beginner) however it gave me confidence when riding, it is comfortable, easy to ride looks and feels sporty, very easy to lean it in the corners. Its a heavy bike so even on windy days on the highway it was very easy and predictable to control it. Got used to all the above negatives and lived with them as the smiles per mile were way more then negatives! Enjoy it and definitely buy it! Show less

Bought this bike brand new with a few hundred miles from a marine who was getting deployed. Ever since i bought the bike i fell in love with it. Its been my baby, always kept her maintained and rode her as she should be. No wheelies unless it pulled up, no burnouts etc. super smooth bike, you wont find one like this on the east coast.

All is well when we talk in line 4 cylinder in Moto GP category, shame comes in when all you offer to real people is V twin torque. Gigi , use your gift to lead us all, not to misslead us all ! I am in the matrket for $ 30 000 super bike !!! What do you want me to get , V twin ? Happy holidays you all Show less

Amazing... I've had 3x 998R. One was stolen and destroyed ; 2 I still have. I've ridden 70,000 miles on them... really. Never beaten, so emotional. What a bike. Reliable, quality build (yes, really !), light and addictive. Show less

Do your homework folks……. A 2012 1000 Vstrom with 51000 miles ! FOR $6,000 ????? 3500 would be fair, 4000 would be top dollar. What a shame. Now these are great bikes and if it were an ABS model we would be closer to 6k. Really not sure when they corrected the clutch basket chatter on the DL1000, but that issue alone would make me lean towards the DL650. Suzuki wouldn’t even fess up to the clutch problems and make it right. The 650 is solid, 50-60mpg low maintenance. Just a little buzzy above 80mph. Show less

I had a 98 ST2 several years ago and had bought it as a commuter to keep the miles off my r1100s. Didn't take long to fall in love with that bike. Comfy, decent power, good handling and the sound!! Sadly a garage fire ended that bike and several stable mates. I have since replaced the r11, and just in the last couple months found a low mileage ST2 in FL. Taking care of the typical early ST2 issues and those created by storing a bike for many years. Already falling back in love. Show less

Have owned a Ducati ST2 now for 2 years and did not expect this bike to be so incredible. I have owned many big twins before, this ST beats them all. The handling is so sharp and effetless, now I have the handling tuned. I have fully servi ed every part now and it runs like a dream. I agree it does not have massive power but it just goes on reving and the power keeps coming. The brembo brakes are fantastic and will stop you on a dime. Weighing In around 200kg it is the lightest tourer I have ever owned. Prices in 2021 seem to be appreciating fast for the Ducati ST2. They do of cause offer the scope to make a great cafe racer or street bike, I choose to keep everything original. Show less

I have owned this Ducati ST2 1998 for 2 years and have been right through mechanically. It handles beutifully and revs and revs. I could easily travel hundreds of miles a day on it. When the ST2 came out in the lates 90s I bought a Honda Blackbird which I toured on. I wish now that I bought a ST2. It is lighter, has amazing hard luggage. And sounds incredible. It is also a dream to work on. All I can say is ride one andyou will realise what a bike this really is. Show less
