2009 Ducati 1098R Bayliss Edition For Sale
Mileage: 975 miles
Price: $39,000
Our latest featured listing is this beautiful Ducati 1098R Bayliss limited edition for sale in Falls Church, Virginia.
For those that don’t know, the Bayliss edition celebrates the 3rd and final World Superbike championship by Troy Bayliss. Motorcyclist wrote, “Bayliss locked up his third championship during ’08’s penultimate round at Magny-Cours, France-his 50th SBK win in 150 starts. To celebrate his final race appearance (and what turned out to be his 51st victory) in Portimao, Portugal, Ducati commissioned famed graphic designer Aldo Drudi to create a unique look for his bike. Drudi designed a scheme that combined elements of the red-and-white Ducati-Xerox team branding with dark-blue details from the Australian flag. It was the perfect tribute, and the best-looking bike on the grid.”
Of course all the other 1098R trimmings are present and these came with the upgraded exhaust that is said to boost power to 180hp in a 364lb (dry weight) package!
Quote from the seller:
This is #26 of 500 made (only 150 were exported to North America). The mileage is only 975 miles and the first servicing was performed by Raffaelle Conti (Coleman PowerSports, CR2 Racing, STR Racing Italy). The Ohlins Recall from 2010 was satisfied with a completely new front suspension.
The bike is fitted with Ducati Performance parts only (Termignoni pipe/cans, ECU, carbon rear hugger, folding control levers, neoprene racing seat, racing windscreen and aluminum coolant hoses) and includes all original parts (OEM muffler cans, exhaust manifold/pipes, coolant hoses). The tires are original and have very minimal wear. The bike has never been raced, wrecked or toppled.
Also included is the unused Bayliss bike cover, the original included rear stand, all manuals/keys/master keys, parts list and the Bayliss Limited Edition Plaque authenticating it’s unique #26 of 500.
Coleman PowerSports is displaying the bike on their showroom floor now. Serious Inquiries should be directed to:

Sweet bike. But 40 grand??? Wow, is that what these bikes are going for?
I agree, that seems quite high. If you’re only going to collect, then get one with no mileage. Otherwise, spend a few bucks more and get a Desmosedici (sp).

Price seems high, considering my 2010 1198 R Corsa was $ 40 k out the door, brand new.___There were even less of them in the US.
There is a new one here at the dealer in Stuart, Florida for $35K.
For that kind of money I’d rather buy a used Ferrari F-355
