1998 Ducati 748L

Zero Miles - Never Ridden

Neiman Marcus 1 of 100

Uncovered Barn Find

This is by far the most unique find in all my years of collecting motorcycles. I have read the stories and heard of people finding model T's, Corvettes, Muscle Cars, etc. in Barns covered for decades. A Modern Era Ducati ????? Crazy But True.... with pics to tell the tale!!! This is my 3rd 748L that I have owned. I originally heard about this bike through a non motorcycle friend that knew of a silver Ducati (with a single side wheel like a 916 as he put it). The source claimed to have seen it under a tarp in a barn somewhere in Jersey. That was enough info for me to pursue this Ducati. After a few phone calls I made an appt. with the estate executor. I then had a friend in the motorcycle industry that lived in the area take a look at the bike for me. A few details had to be worked out with current condition, paperwork, and logistics. I have been a Ducati lover since my first 748L in 98. The bike had 15 years of barn dust on it, but somehow I had to own it. I took delivery of the motorcycle as you see it in the back of the red "Duc Truck". The long and short of the story goes like this. A gentleman in his early 60's purchased the 748 brand new from an NY Ducati Dealer brand new. The owner got ill shortly after. Unfortunately the family decided to forget about it for years in the barn. This bike was never titled or registered. It has Zero miles. Never ridden. It was prepped and will need a service. I have the origin Certificate of Origin from Ducati for this bike. This has to be one of the only Neiman Marcus Ducati's on original MSO, never ridden bikes in existence. If you have read this far than you know what a rarity this model is given the circumstances. Take note of the delivery sticker on right headlamp. I had my mechanic remove the headlamps prior to cleaning the bike to preserve that original aspect. My original intent was to keep the bike. I do have another 748L that I have had for years and it has more sentimental value to me than this bike does. I am assuming that this 748 will go to a collector or someone that shares my passion for these models. I do ask that all potential buyers call me directly on my cell @  603.674.5572. I am not much of an email person, I want to verbally describe and convey the current condition of this 748. I am more than honest and take pride in making valuable contacts rather than misleading buyers.

This looks more like Rossi

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

At Brno today Valentino Rossi had a positive session in free practice, finishing closer and within half a second of the fastest time set by Dani Pedrosa. With a best of 1:57.315 and only .457 off Pedrosa's 1:56.858 lap. But it's not just the time that is encouraging, it's the first time in a long while that Rossi has looked more like his old self on the Desmosedici. "I’m happy because we went pretty well today, and in particular, the gap to the front makes us fairly optimistic," Rossi said after free practice.
