1-30 Update: Alright, it’s back again – but the seller doesn’t seem interested in adjusting his price, so it’s the last time we’ll feature it. Find this Senna II for sale for $23,600

12-21 Update: This Ducati 916 Senna II is back up for sale here on eBay at the same BIN price of $23,600.

In honor of Ayrton Senna, Ducati released 3 runs of limited edition bikes as a tribute, and all are now incredibly desired by collectors. At the time of original sale, proceeds went to Senna’s charity that supported poverty-stricken children in his home country of Brazil. As far as we understand, the Senna’s weren’t sold in the US, so we’re stunned to find one of these in the States!

We’ve featured a first series Senna before, but today we’ve got a Ducati 916 Senna II – the second run of 300. To make this edition special, Ducati slathered the bike in carbon fiber, upgraded the rear suspension with an Ohlins unit, and hit it with a limited edition paint scheme – gray with red wheels, and the Senna decal. Personally, we prefer the darker gray of the Series 1, but hey, it’s all subjective.

This specific Ducati 916 Senna II is #158 out of 300, and is claimed to have a Stage 3 motor build. We love that it has some miles on it (or should we say, kilometers – 23 thousand of them). It looks to be in great shape, and the only cosmetic issue we saw at first glance was some slight burning/distortion of the Termignoni sticker on the left can of the exhaust that must sound incredible. This is easily one of the most sought-after Ducatis of the 90s, though some may not appreciate that the motor is no longer original.
