If it had been the slightly later model, then a possibility, but it is a early model with Ducati Veglia electrics, they all go POP and replacements are nearly the same price as the bike..

The Marmite wagon failed its MOT today. Needs front discs which i have ordered and will be in tomorrow, Took the one off tonight to take with me tomorrow to make sure the new ones are the same. Pissed off because i haven't long put pads on the front. The outside of the disc is like new but the inside where i couldn't see is rusted and pitted, probably would have been ok if i had given it to my mate to skim LOL

How can the engine run fine if it doesn’t start?

Would have to ask the owner that question. 

The engines in these bikes are not usually troublesome, the electrics (usually) went POP long before the engine got to a decent mileage.

The later models with the Bosch engine management system had none of these (starting & running)  problems, the early model (like this one) is best avoided, Ducati Veglia engine management systems are like Hens teeth.
