My latest purchase, 2004 Ducati Monster 800 ie . The guy off ebay was not one of the honest chaps I have encountered. I was going to catch a train and ride it back 200 miles. His words were “the bike has just had a MOT and she is ready to go”. The cost of a courier was just as much as the train fare so I paid for the courier. When the bike turned up the tyres were shot and the rear had a huge chunk taken out. Disappointed.
