I’m not gonna lie. I bought a left over 2019 Panigale 959 this past May.y kick stand was faulty after only a couple rides. I literally almost dropped the bike. Then the seal went on my steering dampener just a few weeks ago and I’m going to have to take it to the dealership. It’s covered under my warranty but unfortunately I’ve had to experience some of what u were taking about in this video. I love my bike, it’s the sexiest bike I’ve owned in my short time riding but I’m questioning if I’m going to keep it.
I do my own routine maintenance on mine after hearing how much Ducati charges. I think they wanted like 600 bucks to change the timing belts. The job took me half an hour and the parts were 80 bucks.
As you know, I love my Ducati V4 Speciale, but sometimes I do miss the reliability and peace of mind that I had with my CBR1000RR. There's a reason I never changed my name to "Ducati Pilot" ;)
Ducati is an exotic brand. If you want the performance, the Italian style and the latest tech, it's going to cost you. No different than a Ferrari. But to some people that pride of ownership is worth it. Having a good dealer around is important though.
I think as a rule, things should only be expensive because the quality is great. The name becomes expensive because the product justifies it. If the quality sucks, then it shouldn’t be so expensive. Rich or not, if you’re not getting your money’s worth, it’s crap.
I'll be honest if you buy an Italian super bike you need to accept that you'll have some minor issues from time to time. But I've had my 2018 959 for a little over 2.5 years 10,000+ miles and I've had no real issues. It's still the coolest thing I've ever owned and I look back at it every single time I leave it in a parking lot.
Well... I've owned a streetfighter v4 SP and i can tell you is the best machine ever, for 1 year and 10k miles no issues. Now looking forward to get a multistrada v4 rally too. But as top performance, i have learned you have to be very careful with maintenance, use the best fluids, screws to specified torque specs, and so on.. just look it as a beautiful expensive woman, have to take care of her, but will enjoy the ride! 😅
08 1098s owner. Owned it for 1 year, since day one of ownership, nothing but problems. First day owning it, gear selector retention spring broke, shortly followed by a faulty voltage regulator and battery. Needed to buy specialty tools just for chain adjustment. Wonderful bike when it's running right, and I can really appreciate the Italian stallion when operating at full potential.
I cant afford one but i have friends who have their ducatis stall while we riding. Quality control and testing is key to reliability, they dont seem to do that.
@@jesseonamotorcycle When it leaves you on the side of the road, and you have to walk home you will literally have to pass it just to get home, hahaha!
I’ll agree with him that most Ducati dealerships are trash. They’re eager and helpful to sell it to you but the service department wants nothing to do with their warranty’s. They’ll gladly have you pay for what should be covered under warranty. A damn shame.
The riding experience you get with Ducati is unbeatable if you can afford it😅 But for average riders I would say it’s not worth it, Japanese bikes are much less nerve racking and that’s a fact!
I agree, I'll be honest, that XDiavel had so much soul, so fun to ride. However, the most fun bike I ever rode is my 2019 YZ450fx supermoto!! My sumo stays!
WHAT Cruze you dont put enough miles on your bike anyway to worry about getting parts, youre selling within 1-2 years with low low low miles!!!!!!! Man stop frontin!!
I will say this if you don't keep your bikes that long or put too many miles on them Why worry about valve adjustments which usually dont need done or maintenance. I understand cc gets new bikes to keep viewers interested Hes very smart And has a good channel. Bug out van is amazing
@@ihateeverything3972 I don’t actually have seen a ton of his stuff and mostly good but there are some interesting inconsistencies between his videos. The Poser vid he talked about quality miles over quantity but is worried about getting parts again low miles. He was begging Ducati to make a V4 street fighter then when it happened didn’t want it because of Carlin Dunn. He wouldn’t put a exhaust system on his Aprilia (and sold it because he got a speeding ticket) but immediately puts one on his MT09 then puts it up for sale to get a year newer MT09 again. I don’t know as a fan of the channel it’s weird watching this guy flip-flop and basically become a Yamaha channel at this point and hate on Ducati when he sells his bikes in less than a year anyway. Still a fan of the channel he has a like from me on almost every vid just wish this guy stayed consistent.
@@garin8726 Facts he always changes his mind. I guess that means he is always learning new things tho. Really I just fw CycleCruza and I listen to his opinions but don't take all of them to heart. *The way I see it, riding a motorcycle is defying what everyone tells you and just doing what you want. Keep doin what you want with your new dangerous hobby.*
Ducati is crap, just take a look at the engine test here in youtube “they find 50, 100 and even 150 micrometers particles inside their new engines “that includes all Panigales, naked bikes and even MotoGp engines! Only Ducati and chinese brands have those metal particles for normal use inside the engines. That means his engines have bad quality and makes that 3 of 10 new bikes fail in the first year, the maximum size of particles inside japanese brand was of 30 micrometers.
I believe it do not matter what kind of bike you purchase. People will have different experiences with any kind of bike. Some people will have amazing experiences, & some people will have bad ones. Either way, if you cant afford to maintain it. Dont buy it.
I have my Diavel 1260S since it came out.. made over 24000 km. ZERO Issues. They had to bleed the brake once at the start.. I LOVE it so far.. the low down grunt is insane! And about the price.. yout have to pay to play😅😂
Unfortunately, that reliability ranking was published by Consumer Reports in 2015. Therefore, it’s not current and the percentages could look very different if based on recent surveys. I wrote Consumer Reports a few months ago and asked if they could update it. Cars get all of their attention.
I have a 2005 Monster 620 that has never had a single problem. It still ping-taps down the road today. Also have a 2014 Monster 1200s with no problems. The 1200 is wicked fun and looks badass. Weird how that works sometimes. They must have issues with quality control. Italians of course, have a much different view about work than Americans. Work is a part of life for them, not instead of life like us. I also have an old 89 KZ1000P that stays in various states of repair. It still runs despite having almost 90,000 miles on it.
Ducati is a trail blazer and always pushing the state of the art. The new multistrada v4 looks good with adaptive cruise control and 36,000 miles between valve adjustments. I agree buying the first year of a new model is risky, but the tech is cutting edge.
I love Ducatis passion to make the sickest bikes, I just wish the reliability was as good, however, the reliability is getting a little better. I wish them well. This video was constructive criticism.
What trailblazing? Too much focus on form over function. They cant even decide on what works for them. Desmo or Granturismo, V2 or V4, Trellis or Perimeter. Their bikes only make good power at higher compression ratios and RPMs which compromises reliability. The Japanese found the winning formula decades ago and have pretty much stuck to it. Revzilla just demonstrated how a 15 year GSXR beat the crap out of a $30k V4S.
I bought a 2007 Ducati 1098 and absolutely love it for what it is. It is a superbike, not a standard or tourer. Now I am in my 60s so the riding position gets old for a long ride but I will never sell it. It goes to my son. My dealer is an hour away and service is expensive so I do what I can myself since it is way out of warranty.
Used to watch these vids daily but getting put off lately. How can you say Ducati has an R&D issue and follow that up with the rear brake problem (again), when that was a Brembo recall. How is that the fault of Ducati’s R&D? Sorry man, turned off after that.
I agree with you 1000%, now she is just looking for content and babbling like an idiot. I have owned Ducati’s for 25 years and would not go with another brand. Other brands are great, it I will not say they suck, to each their own.
He’s just clowning when he says they suck. CC is just a cheapie. I had the same issue on my 2019 XDS, where the rear brake lost all pressure, but finally got it fixed this Spring under the recall and all is good still.
As long as you have a Japanese bike in the garage, get any other bike you like. That way when the exotic bike is down waiting on parts you are all good. Done.
Same cheap man here. Took a leap of faith and got a SF848; nothing but problems, rear brake failing (heat induced i believe) locking on rear rim, stock brembo fluid containers letting in rain water, engine cutting off while travelling on the highway, etc. Like you, will never touch one again and staying with Japanese.
Hey it's Fancy Animal!!! The most under appreciated moto guy on YT. Listen here people, if you want real honest moto reviewing and technical knowledge you need to go check out this dudes channel. Only problem is that he doesn't post enough :)
Been there done that! lol I will say Ducatis are very soulful fun bikes to ride and beautiful to look at. No more for me anytime soon though. Our NE Ohio Ducati dealership got put out of business. The closest dealership is 3 hours away.
There is always a trade off between performance and reliability in my opinion. I have loved all the Ducati's I have owned. At least they are innovating very aggressively from year to year. The same can't be said for some of the other manufacturers.
You were much nicer about Ducati in the video than what the video title says. I've had two Multistrada's and they have been amazing, fun, and reliable bikes
Ducati is the only brand that I know of that has a scheduled periodic valve adjustment, do you know why that is? That is the reason I woudn't buy a Ducati. I have a Kawasaki z900 2018, and it has never had a single issue.
It's actually a scheduled valve clearance check and it's nothing exclusive Recommended valve clearance check on 2018 z900 is 15,000 miles . Same as the Ducatis I think you need to read your owners manual maintenance schedule 😃
I ride since 2018 a ducati 939 hypermotard 2017. And i am still Happy with this Bike. No issues or something Else... its my first Ducati. Before i owned a Yamaha r1 for 10 years and had no issues to.
I have a MS 950s, with 2,500 miles on it, to date, no issues at all. Every weekend I'm touring on back roads of Texas. Love my MS 950s👍🏽. Be safe bro 🙏
Best bike I ever owned and most likely my last bike. Have no intention to change. Will keep it “forever”. To CC, here we go again and why I stopped view your videos. I comment without watching the video but it’s kind of the same you do with commenting on bikes you never ridden.
All of the Ducati bikes are cool but I don't trust their reliability and don't want my wallet raped. lol They wanted to charge me $700 for a new belt for that XDiavel that should have been covered under the factory warranty.
@@jonassubvert I was thinking about getting one next season. What bikes have you had in the past? I'm trying to see if the Hypermotard 950 would be a good fit for me. Thank you
@@EEEBA1 Nice! I had before: KTM 1190 adventure. KTM Super Duke 1290 GT. Aprila Tuono 18 with akra full system. Ducati Desert Sled (great bike but the engine dont give you the thrills. And now Hypermotard 950 standard, decated, SC Project slipon. And I added factory quick shifter. Oh I added the same "HYPER" stickers on the tank as RVE model has. If you are not very tall, just get the standard version and install QS and you can put the extra money on a nice exhaust etc. I was driving alot of motorcross when I was younger and the Hyper fits great for me. I love the rider position, sound and the engine. Not the best on highway but it makes up for it about everywhere else. Zero issues and have not heard anyone on the FB group have had any issues with 950.
@@EEEBA1 im used to dirt bikes and feel most comfortable on that style of bike rather than sports so it made sensor me to go for the hyper, im my opinion its a great all rounder, I have gone for the standard bike with a quickshifter upgrade, the stock suspension is still decent kit
I'm not rich, I'm financially secure. I ride my bikes every chance I get. I've worked hard for every dime I've made in my life, started my own company. I don't judge you by the cars sitting on your front lawn in front of your trailer as a static display. 😁Check your bank and you'll have a garage to put them in.🤣🤣🤣
I almost got a monster years ago. I'm glad I didn't. I love sexy exotic bikes, but I can't afford the parts+shipping, shop rates and special tools. I ride a Triumph (06 speed triple) and a KTM (07 990 super duke). Both what I consider somewhat exotic but I'm not wealthy either and I decided if I'm going to own an exotic bike, I better know how to wrench on them, and so I learned (and still learning). The Triumph's engine is bulletproof and hasn't given me any major issues (everything fixable by me) and parts can be found on eBay. Nothing is as reliable as a Japanese bike though for sure. Cruza you need to try a rocket 3. I think you'll like it.
CC, you should move to Philly. We have 3 Ducati dealers in close range. One of them even offers free pick up and return delivery when they service your bike. Plus we have much more picturesque winding roads.
„Why I don‘t buy xyz any more...“ someone that rides on straight highways with a selfie stick giving general advice on the qualities of motorcycles. You seem to have trouble with basically every bike or brand after some time. Typical CycleCruza video series starts with overly enthusiastic praise, then something happens and the beloved bike is representing all the worst of the brand. Sometimes the problem sits on top of the bike...
Hey CC, you been riding bikes rolling enough to know now, that you have to “PAY TO PLAY” I own a Yamaha R1 and A Honda F4i...BOTH bikes I’ve put almost the price of BOTH bikes to just to keep them Maintained!! Great VideO thO!! 🏍💨💯
But I’m thinking about trading my 2003 Aprilia RSV Mille for a Ducati Scrambler 1100 or a Ducati Hypermotard 939 SP 😪, I’m in love with Italian bikes lmao
I've had 2 ducks. I won't buy another. My analogy is this... Ducati's are like sparklers. Fun to play with for a minute but once that spark is gone, it's not worth a crap. I had a Diavel and at 998 miles, the gearbox locked up. The entire engine had to be disassembled to fix it. It was never the same. My dealer did their best to make it right but when it was all said and done, it was just never the same.
Welp... the new V4 Multistrada is binning the desmo valve system and going with springs, practically doubling the valve check duration. Other things happening in the new Multi that promises to be more reliable, less maintenance costs, etc.
The irony is, I haven't seen my MT10 SP for 6 weeks because it's at the dealer being fixed. Throttle bodies needed replacing at a cost of £2k plus labour. I'd still never go near a European bike though.
I recently got a ducati 620 sport from 2006 because im gonna get ma a2 licence soon now im on a rc125 ktm But the ducati is way easier to work on especially to do a oil change or sparkplugs, airfilter or battery change Everyone says them ducatis are expensive and unreliable but if u get a slightly older one they really easy to repair and work on ( the newer ones are nightmares to work on tho😆)
I went from a Honda to a Ducati, and while I don’t regret it, I miss the near perfect reliability of my Fireblade. I love Italian motorcycles, but I can’t stand people that shit on Japanese engineering.
I havent had much issues out of my rsv4 and i beat the piss out of it. Never owned a Ducati but was thinking about trading in my speed triple for a 1200s monster..
Its quite similar to my Aprilia experience. I owned 2 Aprilia Pegasos 650 Strada for combined 3,5 years, and the styling is among the most beautiful. Sound? Amazing for 45hp. But reliability? Nah man. I had to get rid of it. Now I drive a air-cooled Honda. Reliability on steroids, I believe so.
Spell thing I hate about the Katie motorcycles is you can't do your own maintenance without voiding the warranty how hard is it to basic maintenance on a motorcycle I don't want to pay $700 every 4 months. 😕
Here in Virginia we have 3 or 4 Ducati dealerships spread over the state and we even have 2 MV Agusta dealers I believe(they both are owned by the same person I think). That's why I love living here in Virginia ! Back home in Hawaii, there's one Ducati dealer who sells Ducati's but as you can imagine the expense is double or triple that of 'Mainland' maintenance price due to the distance of distribution to get the parts. Also, there's no MV Agusta dealers in Hawaii. So, in that sense, Hawaii sucks...lol.....
panigale and diavel are among the most unreliable ducatis out there because they are complicated and full of electronics. but low end ducati models like scrambler and aircooled monster are very reliable. Its a very simple motorcycle. aircooled engine, chasis, tank, wheel, and seat, what could go wrong?
My Ducati Multistrada v2s won’t start after 125miles from new , after 3,5 month today I get an email as they finally fix the motorcycle , now I going for battle to get my money back 21,5k , avoid at any cost 😢
@@sjaakvandam2170 idk about guzzi but bmw gs is built more like a car. On a light weight moto dry clutch just doesn't work well. And ya it's about time Ducati dropped those outdated pain in the ass valves.
For me, ducati's is made for those people who is willing to spend and they are honest that the machine is costly because of the parts coming from italy.
So what you are saying is you cannot afford one? They are exotics and there is expensive upkeep along with it. Look at people who build very high output car motors. There is much more maintenance associated with it.
Their servicing costs are excessive. Why do they put a battery under a fuel tank? It is like they deliberately build, an impractical machine to service, so they can deliberately "jack" up their servicing costs. And they don't match the Japanese bike manufacturers reliability, and first class precision engineering. With a Ducati it's all style over substance. I agree with Cyclecruza completely.
Honestly I have known about five guys with Ducati’s. And all of them had expensive maintenance problems that would never happen on a Japanese motorcycle. All but one bought another Ducati. The other 4 bought R1s and are happier, their words not mine. My boy had the prior generation Aprilia Streetfighter and it was plagued with maintenance problems so he bought a Triumph and likes it.
@@browngreen933 Yeah, well unless he or you can explain exactly what problem it was I'd take it with a pinch of salt. I'll bet you it was nothing. Typical CC All the gear No idea 🙄

Ducati making motorcycle riders into motorcycle mechanics since the 1950's
I do my own routine maintenance on mine after hearing how much Ducati charges. I think they wanted like 600 bucks to change the timing belts. The job took me half an hour and the parts were 80 bucks.
loooooooooooooooooooool nice one!!
@@leokeller682 perfect! how you deal w/ valve adjustment/ Desno Service?
Cruza just trying to justify his mt09 once again.........
He selling it tho
@@ihateeverything3972
No he isn't. Look at the comment section in that video.
As you know, I love my Ducati V4 Speciale, but sometimes I do miss the reliability and peace of mind that I had with my CBR1000RR. There's a reason I never changed my name to "Ducati Pilot" ;)
I'm pretty sure you did :)
Damn what a stone cold call out to yourself from the past
lol
Ducati is an exotic brand. If you want the performance, the Italian style and the latest tech, it's going to cost you. No different than a Ferrari. But to some people that pride of ownership is worth it. Having a good dealer around is important though.
Absolutely!
@DMoney Industry
They aren't the same class of bike tho
My ducati is my favorite bike in my collection. That said I’ve replaced about 2 grand in the wiring.
I think as a rule, things should only be expensive because the quality is great. The name becomes expensive because the product justifies it. If the quality sucks, then it shouldn’t be so expensive. Rich or not, if you’re not getting your money’s worth, it’s crap.
I'll be honest if you buy an Italian super bike you need to accept that you'll have some minor issues from time to time. But I've had my 2018 959 for a little over 2.5 years 10,000+ miles and I've had no real issues. It's still the coolest thing I've ever owned and I look back at it every single time I leave it in a parking lot.
Well... I've owned a streetfighter v4 SP and i can tell you is the best machine ever, for 1 year and 10k miles no issues. Now looking forward to get a multistrada v4 rally too. But as top performance, i have learned you have to be very careful with maintenance, use the best fluids, screws to specified torque specs, and so on.. just look it as a beautiful expensive woman, have to take care of her, but will enjoy the ride! 😅
08 1098s owner. Owned it for 1 year, since day one of ownership, nothing but problems. First day owning it, gear selector retention spring broke, shortly followed by a faulty voltage regulator and battery. Needed to buy specialty tools just for chain adjustment. Wonderful bike when it's running right, and I can really appreciate the Italian stallion when operating at full potential.
I cant afford one but i have friends who have their ducatis stall while we riding. Quality control and testing is key to reliability, they dont seem to do that.
I have a 2023 panigale v2 with 900 miles.. Purchased new.. Serviced at dealer.. Stalls when slowing down in 1st with clutch fully pulled in
That rear break didn’t cost me anything when I took my XD in for the recall. They fixed it with out question.
Next video:I'm buying a Ducati.
lol I already owned one, been there done that.
I know bro 🙂
@@CycleCruza "Been there, done that." That's exactly my experience with Ducati, and I won't ride a Duc again.
That new street fighter all blacked out. Can you really pass up on it ?
@@jesseonamotorcycle When it leaves you on the side of the road, and you have to walk home you will literally have to pass it just to get home, hahaha!
I’ll agree with him that most Ducati dealerships are trash. They’re eager and helpful to sell it to you but the service department wants nothing to do with their warranty’s. They’ll gladly have you pay for what should be covered under warranty. A damn shame.
Absolutely this👆🏻
The riding experience you get with Ducati is unbeatable if you can afford it😅
But for average riders I would say it’s not worth it, Japanese bikes are much less nerve racking and that’s a fact!
I agree, I'll be honest, that XDiavel had so much soul, so fun to ride. However, the most fun bike I ever rode is my 2019 YZ450fx supermoto!! My sumo stays!
Correcto mundo
Right on Cycle Cruza. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience, and keep it coming dude. 👍🏼👍🏼
WHAT Cruze you dont put enough miles on your bike anyway to worry about getting parts, youre selling within 1-2 years with low low low miles!!!!!!! Man stop frontin!!
Two comments why u got such a problem w this dude
I will say this if you don't keep your bikes that long or put too many miles on them Why worry about valve adjustments which usually dont need done or maintenance. I understand cc gets new bikes to keep viewers interested Hes very smart And has a good channel. Bug out van is amazing
@@ihateeverything3972 I don’t actually have seen a ton of his stuff and mostly good but there are some interesting inconsistencies between his videos.
The Poser vid he talked about quality miles over quantity but is worried about getting parts again low miles.
He was begging Ducati to make a V4 street fighter then when it happened didn’t want it because of Carlin Dunn.
He wouldn’t put a exhaust system on his Aprilia (and sold it because he got a speeding ticket) but immediately puts one on his MT09 then puts it up for sale to get a year newer MT09 again.
I don’t know as a fan of the channel it’s weird watching this guy flip-flop and basically become a Yamaha channel at this point and hate on Ducati when he sells his bikes in less than a year anyway.
Still a fan of the channel he has a like from me on almost every vid just wish this guy stayed consistent.

I had a Diavel, miss it . Love their customer service. I have an XSR900 now . Poor man’s Diavel 😂
My Multistrada is the best bike I've ever owned. It's just you. You bought a first run off new model. IDC what MFG it is. You don't do that.
Ducati is crap, just take a look at the engine test here in youtube “they find 50, 100 and even 150 micrometers particles inside their new engines “that includes all Panigales, naked bikes and even MotoGp engines! Only Ducati and chinese brands have those metal particles for normal use inside the engines.
That means his engines have bad quality and makes that 3 of 10 new bikes fail in the first year, the maximum size of particles inside japanese brand was of 30 micrometers.
I believe it do not matter what kind of bike you purchase.
People will have different experiences with any kind of bike.
Some people will have amazing experiences, & some people will have bad ones.
Either way, if you cant afford to maintain it. Dont buy it.
100 percent agree with you
@@jesseonamotorcycle i appreciate it, thank you.

@@skatman3872 thanx,
I think people need to understand that the reason we hear different things about any brand is cause of peoples experience.
I have my Diavel 1260S since it came out.. made over 24000 km.
ZERO Issues. They had to bleed the brake once at the start.. I LOVE it so far.. the low down grunt is insane! And about the price.. yout have to pay to play😅😂
I’m thinking about getting one next year. Would you say it’s worth the price tag?
@@dreadthedreads4567 For me, YES! It is my dream Bike
I ❤️ Ducati 🇮🇹
Italians makes some Bad Ass Machines
Yes they do 100 percent !
The bad and the ass...
I got a ducati 848 Evo and its a beast. Never a single Problem.
Unfortunately, that reliability ranking was published by Consumer Reports in 2015. Therefore, it’s not current and the percentages could look very different if based on recent surveys. I wrote Consumer Reports a few months ago and asked if they could update it. Cars get all of their attention.
I have a 2005 Monster 620 that has never had a single problem. It still ping-taps down the road today. Also have a 2014 Monster 1200s with no problems. The 1200 is wicked fun and looks badass. Weird how that works sometimes. They must have issues with quality control. Italians of course, have a much different view about work than Americans. Work is a part of life for them, not instead of life like us. I also have an old 89 KZ1000P that stays in various states of repair. It still runs despite having almost 90,000 miles on it.
Ducati is a trail blazer and always pushing the state of the art. The new multistrada v4 looks good with adaptive cruise control and 36,000 miles between valve adjustments. I agree buying the first year of a new model is risky, but the tech is cutting edge.
I love Ducatis passion to make the sickest bikes, I just wish the reliability was as good, however, the reliability is getting a little better. I wish them well. This video was constructive criticism.
What trailblazing? Too much focus on form over function. They cant even decide on what works for them. Desmo or Granturismo, V2 or V4, Trellis or Perimeter. Their bikes only make good power at higher compression ratios and RPMs which compromises reliability. The Japanese found the winning formula decades ago and have pretty much stuck to it. Revzilla just demonstrated how a 15 year GSXR beat the crap out of a $30k V4S.
I bought a 2007 Ducati 1098 and absolutely love it for what it is. It is a superbike, not a standard or tourer. Now I am in my 60s so the riding position gets old for a long ride but I will never sell it. It goes to my son. My dealer is an hour away and service is expensive so I do what I can myself since it is way out of warranty.
Used to watch these vids daily but getting put off lately. How can you say Ducati has an R&D issue and follow that up with the rear brake problem (again), when that was a Brembo recall. How is that the fault of Ducati’s R&D? Sorry man, turned off after that.
I agree with you 1000%, now she is just looking for content and babbling like an idiot. I have owned Ducati’s for 25 years and would not go with another brand.
Other brands are great, it I will not say they suck, to each their own.
He’s just clowning when he says they suck. CC is just a cheapie.
I had the same issue on my 2019 XDS, where the rear brake lost all pressure, but finally got it fixed this Spring under the recall and all is good still.
I had the same issue with my XD. Simple recall fix and it’s over with. Easy.
@@jesseonamotorcycle they probably didn't even charge you, right?
@@Grigorixi nope not a single dollar!
What about the Yamaha MT09 recall because of a defect that could make the handlebars come loose? You are full of it dude!
The influence of VW/Audi as owners has improved the new generations of Ducati bikes, better built and should be more reliable.
As long as you have a Japanese bike in the garage, get any other bike you like. That way when the exotic bike is down waiting on parts you are all good. Done.
Same cheap man here. Took a leap of faith and got a SF848; nothing but problems, rear brake failing (heat induced i believe) locking on rear rim, stock brembo fluid containers letting in rain water, engine cutting off while travelling on the highway, etc. Like you, will never touch one again and staying with Japanese.

@@CycleCruza you should go for Kawasaki man!
People I know have 2 Ducati . One they bought to ride. The second is for parts to keep the first one running
lol Sounds about right.

There is always a trade off between performance and reliability in my opinion. I have loved all the Ducati's I have owned. At least they are innovating very aggressively from year to year. The same can't be said for some of the other manufacturers.
Absolutely about time someone with some rational.
Rear brakes are for sissies, Cruza 😉
You were much nicer about Ducati in the video than what the video title says. I've had two Multistrada's and they have been amazing, fun, and reliable bikes
hey, did you had any from 2010-2014? no problems at all? how many miles did you get on those?
Thanks
@@marcoaurelio6941 ya one was a 2010, probably the best model they made, went 17K before I sold it.
Ducati is the only brand that I know of that has a scheduled periodic valve adjustment, do you know why that is? That is the reason I woudn't buy a Ducati. I have a Kawasaki z900 2018, and it has never had a single issue.
Your 2 year old bike never had an issus? Wow thats something to be proud of.
It's actually a scheduled valve clearance check and it's nothing exclusive
Recommended valve clearance check on 2018 z900 is 15,000 miles . Same as the Ducatis
I think you need to read your owners manual maintenance schedule 😃
Don't you tune up your car on a regular basis? Probably not. Why wouldn't you do that to your motorcycle?
I ride since 2018 a ducati 939 hypermotard 2017. And i am still Happy with this Bike. No issues or something Else... its my first Ducati. Before i owned a Yamaha r1 for 10 years and had no issues to.
Cyclecruza wakes up in his bed, removes bed cover to discover decapitated head of a horse! Next video: “How I love ❤️ Ducati” video 1 of 7.
Ducati R&D chase measurable data and numbers at the expense of reliability, and even rider feel at the racing level, which is what holds them back.
bikes of character....cost money! always have, always will
I have a MS 950s, with 2,500 miles on it, to date, no issues at all. Every weekend I'm touring on back roads of Texas. Love my MS 950s👍🏽. Be safe bro 🙏
Hyper 950 is the way, its both your bikes in one package.
Best bike I ever owned and most likely my last bike. Have no intention to change. Will keep it “forever”.
To CC, here we go again and why I stopped view your videos. I comment without watching the video but it’s kind of the same you do with commenting on bikes you never ridden.
All of the Ducati bikes are cool but I don't trust their reliability and don't want my wallet raped. lol They wanted to charge me $700 for a new belt for that XDiavel that should have been covered under the factory warranty.
@@jonassubvert I was thinking about getting one next season.
What bikes have you had in the past?
I'm trying to see if the Hypermotard 950 would be a good fit for me.
Thank you
@@EEEBA1 Nice!
I had before:
KTM 1190 adventure.
KTM Super Duke 1290 GT.
Aprila Tuono 18 with akra full system.
Ducati Desert Sled (great bike but the engine dont give you the thrills.
And now Hypermotard 950 standard, decated, SC Project slipon. And I added factory quick shifter. Oh I added the same "HYPER" stickers on the tank as RVE model has. If you are not very tall, just get the standard version and install QS and you can put the extra money on a nice exhaust etc.
I was driving alot of motorcross when I was younger and the Hyper fits great for me. I love the rider position, sound and the engine. Not the best on highway but it makes up for it about everywhere else.
Zero issues and have not heard anyone on the FB group have had any issues with 950.
@@EEEBA1 im used to dirt bikes and feel most comfortable on that style of bike rather than sports so it made sensor me to go for the hyper, im my opinion its a great all rounder, I have gone for the standard bike with a quickshifter upgrade, the stock suspension is still decent kit

@@deathscythehell7937 I'm talking about trust fund babies. Nor us working people.
I almost got a monster years ago. I'm glad I didn't. I love sexy exotic bikes, but I can't afford the parts+shipping, shop rates and special tools. I ride a Triumph (06 speed triple) and a KTM (07 990 super duke). Both what I consider somewhat exotic but I'm not wealthy either and I decided if I'm going to own an exotic bike, I better know how to wrench on them, and so I learned (and still learning). The Triumph's engine is bulletproof and hasn't given me any major issues (everything fixable by me) and parts can be found on eBay. Nothing is as reliable as a Japanese bike though for sure. Cruza you need to try a rocket 3. I think you'll like it.
CC, you should move to Philly. We have 3 Ducati dealers in close range. One of them even offers free pick up and return delivery when they service your bike. Plus we have much more picturesque winding roads.
„Why I don‘t buy xyz any more...“ someone that rides on straight highways with a selfie stick giving general advice on the qualities of motorcycles.

Just watched one of your videos from 2016 and my god you have toned it down a 1000%
I haven’t had one problem with my 959
You know you missing that Ducati xDiavel lol
I really did enjoy that bike, that was the best cruiser you can buy, however, reliability is not the best.
That low end torque is one of a kind
I've had 2 ducks. I won't buy another. My analogy is this... Ducati's are like sparklers. Fun to play with for a minute but once that spark is gone, it's not worth a crap.
I had a Diavel and at 998 miles, the gearbox locked up. The entire engine had to be disassembled to fix it. It was never the same. My dealer did their best to make it right but when it was all said and done, it was just never the same.
In my experiance, its been really violent and just rough and everything is expensive
Cycle cruzaaaaaa the getting rid of the r6 for 2021 what is you Opinion on that?????????
What about that new triumph trident???
@CycleCruza...what are the chances of us seeing you on a Suzuki in the future?
It’s like that brand doesn’t even exist to him lol.
Welp... the new V4 Multistrada is binning the desmo valve system and going with springs, practically doubling the valve check duration. Other things happening in the new Multi that promises to be more reliable, less maintenance costs, etc.
I heard today..that the WR250 has been canceled. It was a merciful killing.. no announcment of a replacement. Sorry about the topic change.
They more reliable than Yamaha in MotoGP at least 🤣
You sure bout that??? 3 yamaha and 2 suzuki in top 5 this season
@@mohammadhaikal8320 But how many motors have Yamaha been through this season compared to the other brands. That is the question.
The irony is, I haven't seen my MT10 SP for 6 weeks because it's at the dealer being fixed. Throttle bodies needed replacing at a cost of £2k plus labour.
I'd still never go near a European bike though.
Another drawback when buying a Ducati is it costs thousands in premium for the name!🤔
yep!
So does a Rolex, so buy a Casio cheap ass, but don't disrespect others preferences, that don't make Ducati suck.
The premium is for the parts. Big $'s
I recently got a ducati 620 sport from 2006 because im gonna get ma a2 licence soon now im on a rc125 ktm
But the ducati is way easier to work on especially to do a oil change or sparkplugs, airfilter or battery change
Everyone says them ducatis are expensive and unreliable but if u get a slightly older one they really easy to repair and work on
( the newer ones are nightmares to work on tho😆)
I went from a Honda to a Ducati, and while I don’t regret it, I miss the near perfect reliability of my Fireblade. I love Italian motorcycles, but I can’t stand people that shit on Japanese engineering.
I havent had much issues out of my rsv4 and i beat the piss out of it. Never owned a Ducati but was thinking about trading in my speed triple for a 1200s monster..
My neighbor has the 1200 monster oh it sounds so sweet.
Its quite similar to my Aprilia experience. I owned 2 Aprilia Pegasos 650 Strada for combined 3,5 years, and the styling is among the most beautiful. Sound? Amazing for 45hp. But reliability? Nah man. I had to get rid of it. Now I drive a air-cooled Honda. Reliability on steroids, I believe so.
Spell thing I hate about the Katie motorcycles is you can't do your own maintenance without voiding the warranty how hard is it to basic maintenance on a motorcycle I don't want to pay $700 every 4 months. 😕
Here in Virginia we have 3 or 4 Ducati dealerships spread over the state and we even have 2 MV Agusta dealers I believe(they both are owned by the same person I think). That's why I love living here in Virginia ! Back home in Hawaii, there's one Ducati dealer who sells Ducati's but as you can imagine the expense is double or triple that of 'Mainland' maintenance price due to the distance of distribution to get the parts. Also, there's no MV Agusta dealers in Hawaii. So, in that sense, Hawaii sucks...lol.....
And this is why I love the big 4 from Japan. Give me a Honda over a Duccati any day. Sorry not sorry
panigale and diavel are among the most unreliable ducatis out there because they are complicated and full of electronics. but low end ducati models like scrambler and aircooled monster are very reliable. Its a very simple motorcycle. aircooled engine, chasis, tank, wheel, and seat, what could go wrong?
My Ducati Multistrada v2s won’t start after 125miles from new , after 3,5 month today I get an email as they finally fix the motorcycle , now I going for battle to get my money back 21,5k , avoid at any cost 😢

Can you talk about the difference in o ring and x ring chains are and which is better Thanks
What turns me off about Ducati is the weird or extreme systems for the domestic market like spring less valves and dry clutches.
yea, when I first heard of a "dry clutch", I was like wtf?
Bmw and moto guzzi have had dry clutches for decades. Also, cars. Lol. Their new multistrada actually has valve springs.
@@sjaakvandam2170 idk about guzzi but bmw gs is built more like a car. On a light weight moto dry clutch just doesn't work well. And ya it's about time Ducati dropped those outdated pain in the ass valves.

Why haven’t you bought a Suzuki or Kawasaki yet, unless I’ve missed it
Prob won't get many views
They're owned by Volkswagen who WANTED to sell the brand 3 years ago but the labor unions and Porsche stopped it. What does that tell you?
Ducati is not profitable, probably losing money. Our NE Ohio Ducati dealership went out of business a while ago.

So far for the japanese bikes🤷♂️
That is rare, I've had zero issues with the Japanese bikes I've owned.
@@CycleCruza it was a known problem for the '08-'09 engine.
Thankfully Ten Kate racing helped me a lot there
For me, ducati's is made for those people who is willing to spend and they are honest that the machine is costly because of the parts coming from italy.
So what you are saying is you cannot afford one? They are exotics and there is expensive upkeep along with it. Look at people who build very high output car motors. There is much more maintenance associated with it.
Why CycleCruza sucks
You are like the Harley people. But you should get a motorcycle jacket with JAPAN printed with big letters on the back.
No just YAMAHA
Exactly he has become a one brand guy but says he loves motorcycles. Gtfoh.
Didn't you get rid of that bike? is this a reupload?
The true Italian exotic is MV Agusta 😍
Also the most unreliable and worst performing of the Italian stallions. But nice too look at if thats all you care about.
Endless money pit. 😆
However, they are good for celebrities who ride them down the street and back to look cool for the paparazzi pics.
Their servicing costs are excessive. Why do they put a battery under a fuel tank? It is like they deliberately build, an impractical machine to service, so they can deliberately "jack" up their servicing costs. And they don't match the Japanese bike manufacturers reliability, and first class precision engineering. With a Ducati it's all style over substance. I agree with Cyclecruza completely.
Honestly I have known about five guys with Ducati’s. And all of them had expensive maintenance problems that would never happen on a Japanese motorcycle. All but one bought another Ducati. The other 4 bought R1s and are happier, their words not mine. My boy had the prior generation Aprilia Streetfighter and it was plagued with maintenance problems so he bought a Triumph and likes it.
Triumphs are really awesome bikes. I’m considering getting that new Triumph Trident.
