These expenses are more than reasonable. 9k for 1198s that is in 100% working condition and with all those extras is still a great price. This is becoming a future classic fast, so probably won't drop in value that quick.

Last month I found and bought my 2009 Black 1198S with 960 original miles, Termi cans, the race ECU, and lots of CF parts. $10,800. SoCal. Changed the cam belts last week and replaced the Ohlins shock spring with a heavier rate spring for my larger than average self. Easy peasy. Bitchin like new bike.

@@PracticalEnthusiast I've had fast liter bikes forever. I currently also have an 05 ZX-10r. It's an awesome bike, but the 1198S is so much more high strung and intense. Compared to it the 10r is plush and smooth. The 1198S is a trackday missile. I love feeling the power pulses from those huge pistons.

Dude, that's a beautiful bike and was a steal at the original price. Like you I have tried to find an "S" model in any reasonable condition for less than 10K and it's very difficult. You may be able to find a base model for 6, but an S? Almost impossible. Congratulations on your find! I have really enjoyed this video series.

You made everything right! She will pay everything back. Even in money, if you might decide to sell her one day. And meanwhile money won‘t pay you, what you will get with every ride: memories only a few even have the opportunity to make. I own the same model but i paid around 10.000€ for it. and i think even that was a good buy. Cause she is in mint condition. And i feel blessed with every ride. greetings from germany! ✌️

I bought my 08 1098 4 Years ago for $6800, had to buy a used motor 3 months later for $1900, and last year had the motor professionally rebuilt for a little over $6000. Yes I could have bought a brand new one for that total amount, but this is one of those dream bikes.... absolutely no rider aids and is just a joy to ride.. I'll be keeping it forever.

@@PracticalEnthusiast I’ve got a 2009 1198 base model, my friend and I have done all the work ourselves including the Desmo service. I paid $4,500 for the bike and it needed a lot of love. I’m in it about $7,500 but if I were to have paid shop prices, I’d be looking at about $13,000 in labor as we’ve got about 100 hours of labor in the bike. That being said, I just picked up a 2005 Monster S4R and gonna do the same thing but wanted a more comfortable ride for longer trips. But I live my 1198 and it has totally been worth it.

It's not the "last of the old school" Ducati's. That would be the 1098 and 848 with no traction control (no rider aids at all). Though some might argue the 748's and 998's were the last of the classic Duck's. Of course in 2030, the 1198's and newer will be classics as the last of the petrol-engine bikes.

@@kjslayz5097 I haven't had issues with the slave cylinder yet, but I have noticed a small oil leak developing from where the slave cylinder pushrod goes through the engine case. I think it happens because the rod is rotating with the clutch pressure plate (even though it really shouldn't, but nothing is stopping it). I believe there is an upgrade slave cylinder available that also comes with a new pushrod that is locked in place with slave cylinder piston so it doesn't spin and destroy the sealing O-ring.
