214 Miles – 1996 Ducati 900SS/CR
Over on the auction site we’ve got a hell of a 900SS/CR. If you want a 900SS to ride, the best one to get (in my opinion) is a SS/SP (or maybe a Final Edition, but that’s a discussion for later). But if you’re looking for an incredibly low mileage SS to display or (hopefully) put some miles on, this …
389 Miles – 2009 Aprilia RS125
Finding a plated modern RS125 is hard enough in the United States, but this example stands out even further thanks to the fact that it has just 389 miles.

147 Miles – 1999 Kawasaki ZRX1100
