1996 Ducati 900 SS/CR

In Italy, Less than 5k, Sport by AbhiLeave a Comment

Ducati offered the 900SS between 1991 and 1998, and during that time they sold a full-fairing version (the SS/SP) and a half-fairing version (the SS/CR). I find the latter more attractive, though the ’96 and newer CRs have non-rebuildable Marzochhi front forks that some riders aren’t happy with – don’t worry, this seller has dealt with that. This example has …

In Italy, Race by AbhiLeave a Comment

In 1981, Ducati introduced the legendary 600TT2 factory racer. It was an instant success, and Ducati offered examples to the public in ’82 and ’83. They were impressively similar to the four-time World TT2 championship winning-bike piloted by Tony Rutter, and are truly a landmark bike in the illustrios history of the Italian firm.

In Italy, Sport by AbhiLeave a Comment

Post Listing Update: This 888SPO was pulled off of eBay, final sale price unknown. With just 390 examples sold between 1993 and 1994, the 888 SPO is a limited production Ducati that doesn’t seem to get as much attention as it probably should. It was street legal, but this bike is happiest on a track.

1957 Maserati 160 T4

In Italy, Standard by Tom WackerLeave a Comment

I found this bike for sale and didn’t know it existed. Maserati made a motorcycle? The answer is an unqualified yes, but not only are the bikes extremely rare, but information on them is also very hard to come by. It seems that when Andolfo Orsi (an industrialist who owned many companies including Maserati) died his sister Ida Orsi inherited …

Ending Soon – 1965 Ducati Scrambler

In Dual-Sport, Italy by Tom WackerLeave a Comment

Post Listing Update: This Scrambler got no action at the BIN of $5,800. In 1962 the North American importer for Ducati convinced the factory to bring out the ‘Scrambler’ series. These bikes were exclusive to the North American market offered from 1962 to 1976 in several variations.
