Ducati Superbike description

2008 1098s in very nice shape. Bike has never been raced or put down.  I bought the bike from a state trooper and have only put a little over a thousand miles on it since I've owned it.  I am a very conservative rider and have never come close to riding this bike to its potential.  I bought it as kind a novelty as I love Ducati's, but I have several other bikes already and need the room and the money so this one needs to go. 

The bike has the following add ons:

  • Full Termignoni Exhaust with race ECU and air filter
  • Open clutch cover
  • Aftermarket pressure plate (Barnet)
  • Throttlemeiser
  • Powder coated swing arm and foot peg assemblies (satin black)
  • Ducati Performance superpole seat
  • Puig double bubble windscreen
  • Ducati Performance reverse pattern shifter
  • Custom vinyl wrap on front and rear (can be easily removed if you don't like it and paint is pristine underneath)
  • Carbon rear hugger

The bike runs and sounds incredible and the dry clutch sounds awesome as well.  The front tire has roughly 300 miles on it and the rear has around 1500.  The bike is roughly 500 miles past the recommended  7500 mile dealer service.  The oil has been changed regularly though and bike has been maintained nicely.  The chain gets serviced every 300-500 miles.

I'm not going to say it is perfect as someone will always find flaws, but it is very nice and above average condition.  I looked at lots of these before buying this one and it was by far the nicest one I looked at.  I traveled 550 miles each way to pick it up and it was well worth it. I am including a bunch of the stock parts that came with it as well including the rear seat and the stock front seat.

For those that do not know these are some of the features the s model included that were not on the standard 1098:

  • Full olins suspension
  • Carbon front fender
  • Forged Marchesini wheels

I have tried to describe as best as I can but I am sure I have missed something, please do not hesitate to ask questions. 

I will require a $1000 dollar deposit via PayPal within 24 hours of auction close.  After that the balance can be paid via cashiers check or cash.  Please do not bid if you do not intend to buy.  This is a no-reserve auction so if a buyer backs out I will still get charged for the listing.

Ducati Multistrada Ready for Serious Update?

Tue, 13 Jan 2009

This fabed-up image from a French magazine of what a new Ducati Multistrada might look like is more like a fable than fact. If nothing else, the Internet is great for generating entertaining rumors, speculative talk, spewing hearsay, etc, etc. With the exception of chatter on where the next lucky third-world orphan to be assimilated by Brangelina might come from, nothing seems to spread faster than talk of a venerated bike receiving a thorough update.

World Superbike rider Sylvain Guintoli has left the Effenbert Liberty ahead of the team’s home round in Brno, Czech Republic. Guintoli and members of his pit crew walked off the job, reportedly in a dispute over overdue pay cheques. Liberty Racing initially released a statement calling the crew’s departure as a “defection” born from a “misunderstanding between the mechanics and the administrative management of the team”.
