DUCATI MONSTER 696 2013 thoughts?

Hello

For a long time now i have had my eyes on a Ducati being one of the most well known world wide not to mention the raw power and style, beast! My normal choice of bike is more off road all my life i have had KTM's, XR's etc but now looking for something different with more power. So the other day i came across a Ducati Monster 696 2013 for sale on a bidding site that is just what i am looking for. But being as i have never ridden this style or motorbike before i wan't some opinions on my choice and possibly some advice from the pro's while i'm here. I will place some specs below and his description below.
