    Ducati!.... Monster?

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/moto...1024307982.htm

    Is this wishful thinking or am I missing something about S4R Monsters?

    A 2004 Monster with 40,000kms... for $12,000 seems a bit steep for me.

    I don't recall Ducati Monsters being that valuable?

    Special People These Days...

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/moto...1026426741.htm

    I don't get people like these.... brain must be very special.

    2009 CBR100RR Fireblade, 7100kms, 7 year old bike for... wait for it... $16,000 and also excluding on road cost so no WOF and no REGO.

    Zero mods so can't use that "extras worth over $1,000,000" line but however! stock tires have done 7100 and have been told they've got 700kms more! 7 year old stock tires... the fuck? bikes are made to be ridden!

    " I used to take my daughter everywhere [on it] slowly lol. " clearly not everywhere if you've done fuck all on a thousand bike. If you want to go slowly then do it on a scooter.

    No test rides? How would I know his bike rides the same as a demo bike in a dealership?

    Either he's arrogant as hell or it's keeping the missus happy, as others have said. That last line about test rides is something pretty special alright!

    With so little use he probably still thinks of it as new and thinks it has retained its value. A sad delusion.
    Don't you look at my accountant.

    Holy shitballs batman, 38k?? Clearly this guy thinks its worth it. I don't follow them so have no idea.

    Personally I would pay slightly more for the RC45 that is also listed. (but its all academic because I have no money).

    Yeah .. that is one sweet Duke .. they were about the quickest thing around in their day and I would love that one sitting in my shed - but I think the decimal point is a few places too far to the left ...

    I'd buy this 916 instead (and for that money - four opf them ...)

    Why would you have a 916 when you could have this?

    Too easy to fake those. Buyer beware.
