The Ducati's require high maintenance with frequent breakdowns and are much higher priced than the Japanese sport bikes, and there are limited trained Ducati technicians that can repair it.
you're much better off to go with any of the 4 major Japanese brands that are similar to the Ducati 696
Yamaha FZ6
Suzuki SV650, or V Strom 650 ( same engine )
Kawasaki 650 Ninja, or Versys ( same engine )
 
I am a mature driver who has taken the MSF course. I put 600-700 miles on my first bike, which was a Ninja250. I am considering the Kawasaki Ninja 650r. I am into sports and naked bikes mostly. Any good suggestions other than the monster 696 and the ninja 650r? Thank you.
how about the cbr600?
what is the difference between RR, F4i and the F3?
