I have a JAP and a DUC. Let me tell you the JAP(Jewish American Princess) costs a lot more to maintain than the Duc. Haha. Just get whatever revs your engine.
Maybe his wife is on his case to sell the bike. He can honestly say, the bike is for sale, just no takers. Its summer in NZ at the moment, so I'm sure he won't mind if it doesn't sell for a while.

All the things you mentioned before, were OK, before the invention of cell phones. Try anything like this now and you will be having a chat with PC Plod.
I would look at the 796, rather than the 696. 796 - Single sided swingarm. Albeit no dry clutch. Monster board - http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org
If I knew what I know now, I'd be on the Triumph. I believe there is a R model with Ohlins shocks, for a $1000 more. You will always be right in the...
I have been to the store a few times. No issues. Great prices, and he looked after a warranty issue on a busted bar-end mirror. Never used the online store.
The people that are going to run, are going to run. The rest of us are just going to stop and take our lumps.
