    BBS folks
    Would you all buy an 01 Ducati 748 with 32k miles, no service records and some slight fairing damage for $4000? The mileage and no service records scare me

    If I only had $4000 for a bike, thats not the $4000 bike I'd buy.

    And I work on all my own stuff.

    My feelings exactly. I got the cash but just don't want to buy a complete headache money pit

    only if you planned to do a complete tear down. rod bearings likely gone as a starter

    Or you could post:
    "748 barn find!"
    ....one week later "748 project!"
    ...one more week later "748 for sale $1500"

    My son just picked up this 08 last weekend with 27K miles and full service records (including a complete dealer service just performed less than 1,000 miles ago) for $6K. Save up a couple more bucks and keep looking, there's better bikes out there.

    748 for 4k and it's been crashed - nope.

    That's what I did, and one frame up rebuild later it runs great. Offer $2k, cause that's what it's worth, and then walk away anyways if you're a sane human being, which I am not.
