While many will view this bike as another manufactured “limited edition” bike by Ducati, for Foggy fans it probably doesn’t matter. Naturally it wears custom decal work specific to this edition. It’s also based on the S4 Monster that features the detuned 916 superbike motor, so it’s not lacking in the performance department considering it weighs a mere 415 pounds. With only 300 produced for worldwide consumption, it is a bike you’re not going to see very often either. Advertised with just 2 miles, it’s likely destined for a collection somewhere. But sometimes I like to play devil’s advocate and speculate that if you were in the market for a new Monster, would you pause to consider a new, vintage one instead? Opening bid is $10k reserve not met. Leave a comment with what you’d pay and if you’d keep it low miles or treat as new to ride.

2002 Ducati Monster Fogarty Edition for sale on eBay
from the seller:
Ducati Monster Fogarty edition #240/300. Only 2 miles on the odometer. Single owner, clear title. Never dropped or damaged. Original items not pictured but included: carbon Termignoni exhaust, front and rear wheel stands, bike cover, mirrors, manual and both keys.
Not interested. Carl never raced one of these. I would be more interested in a limited edition of a Ducati that Fogarty actually raced. I think this bike is just marketing taken to far.
I’ve always wanted a Monster for riding … though a s4rs testastretta tricolore would be more my style.
gotta agree with sr88…bikes like this or the senna 916 are just an exercise in branding consisting of different paint jobs on the basic bike….not for me but as they say, there is an ass for every seat.
“an ass for every seat” I’m going to have to use that more often! All rights reserved of course 😉

1. Agree with Martin, silly branding exercise.
2. I’d rather have one that had been ridden regularly, if sparingly. I bought a very low mileage bike once – seals don’t like sitting around.
3. This is an expensive piece of art. In the eyes of this “beholder”, there are better pieces of motorcycle art out there.
Well apparently the general public felt the same way. Auction ended with no bids.
[…] Featured Listing is this great looking Ducati S4 Fogarty edition. We highlighted a 2 mile example not so long ago and if the asking price was keeping you away, today's Foggy is more attractively […]
