For Sale: Ducati Paul Smart 1000 Limited Edition
Italian sport bike enthusiasts should consider themselves a lucky lot – especially the Ducatisti. Where else can you find a rare, limited edition, exclusive and numbered machine in nearly every price range? From the stratosphere pricing of a Desmosedici to the range of the more common man, you can find what you want in the Ducati lineup.
The bike you see here is a 2006 Ducati Paul Smart 1000 LE (limited edition) with very low miles. Based on a Sport Classic engine/frame combination, the PS100LE was built to commemorate Paul Smart’s classic win at Imola on the fabled 750ss. The silver bodywork and blue/green frame was meant to conjure up images of the 750 race bike – only this model contains a 1000cc dual-spark lump and top-grade Ohlins suspension to compliment the single seat and clip-on bars.
This bike features some nice mods, including full exhaust and this tasty vented clutch cover.
From the seller:
Perfect condition, extremely low miles (627), Paul Smart 1000.

One of five hundred imported to the U.S. This bike is showroom clean, no scratches or mars, and I am the original owner. All original documents and manuals included.Good luck on bidding!!
NO Reserve!!
When new, these bikes retailed for $13,995. This one is currently at the $11k mark, with a healthy number of bids. This looks like a good time to join the ranks of the rare Ducati club. The Paul Smart model run was limited to 2,000 units, ensuring that you will not see yourself on every street corner. And with a big, torquey v-twin, top-shelf suspension bits, and racing DNA that goes back to that fateful day at Imola in 1972, this is a collectable that you can ride today. document.write(”);Check out the auction here, before it’s too late!

that one has a tank that is autographed by Paul Smart and is currently at $8,500
also, be aware….
Roughly two thirds of Sport Classics have had their plastic fuel tanks replaced under warranty (some have been replaced twice or more) because ethanol (or something) causes them to deform. Ducati is replacing the tanks free of charge (but with hassle) for 5 years. The tanks are roughly $1,800. Thanks Ducati.
