Post Listing Update: Despite being relisted several times, this Alazzurra could not get interest at the asking price of $4,500.

In 1985, Cagiva bought Ducati to jump start their entry into the big bike market. Cagiva immediately took the Pantah and evolved it into the Alazzurra, and in 1986 they released a fully-faired version called the SS 650.

The 650 V-Twin engine produced 55 horsepower (less than the competition) and the bike weighed 424 pounds dry (also less than the competition). All of that translated to a 0-60mph time of 4.6 seconds. Want to learn more? Check out this review from Motorcycle Classics.

This Cagiva (VIN: ZCG1CA2K8FB000538) has 6,480 miles and it’s being offered by the third owner, a regular Bike-urious commenter. This example is in highly original condition with minor modifications like a Corbin seat, a Bevel Heaven carb kit used for a rebuild on the original Dell’ortos and a plug installed for a battery tender. The seller will include the owner’s manual, service manual, tool kit, service history, a full parts catalog, and two sets of keys. The only flaw seems to be a small leak in the right Marzocchi shock – the seller suggests that you may want to rebuild both piggyback shocks.
