The previous owner of this bike purchased it in 2007 from an owner in Connecticut with around 5000mi. At that time it was a road going, yellow 999M. In 2010, and with roughly 7000mi, it was converted to a track bike. The previous owner sold the street parts to try to recoup some of the money spent to make it a track bike. The wiring harness has not been cut, but the wires that would go to the lights have been unplugged and removed. The previous owner seemed to take good care of it. When I went to his house to buy the bike, it was in his dining room on display. This is where he usually kept it when not riding. As far as track bikes go, this one is in really good shape, but you can see by the pictures that it has been used. It currently has Dunlop slicks on it. The rear tire is low on tread, but the front has plenty, although both tires should be replaced before it is taken on the track again. I bought this bike with the intention of racing it, but things have come up in my life, and I need to let it go, even though I'm going to lose money on it. 


The buyer would be responsible for arranging shipping if necessary.

Ducati Confirms Checa For 2013, Althea Out

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

As the Ducati Factory World Superbike team finalizes its plans for the introduction of the 1199 Panigale into the series, two things are certain: 2011 champion Carlos Checa will be the team’s lead rider, and Team Althea Racing, who have worked with Ducati since 2010, will not be the team’s sponsor. The first bit of news shouldn’t be a surprise, as Checa has been helping the Bologna factory develop the Panigale since mid-year. Checa won the 2011 championship with a masterful display of domination on the 1198, a model many believed to be dated and an underdog before the season began. Details of Checa’s new contract with Ducati have yet to be released other than his role in continuing to develop the 1199 and being the team’s lead rider next year.

2010 Vyrus 987 C3 4V [video]

Wed, 14 Apr 2010

The new Vyrus 987 flies high even in the rarefied air of ultra sportbikes. It marries a 185-horse Ducati 1198R engine with a hub-center-steered Bimota chassis unlike anything else on the market. Still not cool enough for ya?

Oh no. Anther teaser campaign

Mon, 19 Sep 2011

Here's a message to all marketing people: 'teaser' campaigns are awful. We get the idea, you want to hype your forthcoming product, create an air of anticipation, get our attention so when you finally launch the thing we're all on the edge of our collective seats. Sure, with some products – mobile phones, computer games, whatever – the teaser campaign probably works.
