This is my first post and I'm hoping you all can help me out. I'm in the market for a 749 or 749s and after reading many posts on different sites I wanted to know what your personal experience with 05 reliability has been. I will most likely purchase an 06 but assume it's too early for anyone to report on that year. In fact any information on Ducati reliability from any owner is great.
I don't have any problem with the entry price, or the maintenance, but I would like to know what I should expect (I'm a little nervous because of hearing Ducati horror stories). If maintained well should I expect many problems? Is there anything obvious to look out for? Do the newer models stall? Is the heat from the exhaust as hot as reported by 999 owners? Does a slip on/ceramic coating fix this? Any other info you can provide to prepare me is appreciated.
Thanks!
