2004 Ducati 998 Matrix Reloaded limited edition for sale in Kingston, RI.
If you’ve ever watched Matrix Reloaded (and who hasn’t?), then you must remember the superb bike chase scene with Trinity riding a Ducati zipping in and out of cars on the freeway. Although you can clearly read the “996” designation in the movie, Ducati introduced a 998 Matrix Reloaded limited edition in a dark green “Matrix” colour. :
This is a 2004 Limited Addition Ducati 998 Matrix Reloaded. Its in Great condition, low miles and always been garaged. It has a clear title and never had any problem. It has been regularly maintained with tune up etc…
Although it’s not clear exactly how many of these were produced, sources indicate that only 150 pcs of these 998 Matrix Limited editions were made worldwide. Here’s a quick recap of that amazing bike chase scene:
It’s always hard to a put a value on these movie or “novelty” editions, but considering that a.) the 998 was the best of the 916 series b.) although a green Ducati sounds funny, the colour and paint scheme is not entirely that bad c.) the entire Matrix series was phenomenal, and d.) Trinity rocks, I would love to have one!
