Quite possibly the ultimate bevel-drive Ducati, the Mike Hailwood Replica started out as a lightweight homolagation special, but finished as a 973cc superbike. This fine example has some shelf wear but has logged only a few hundred miles. 1986 Ducati MHR Mille for sale on eBay The late MHR had 76 torquey hp, and the…
If you’re a sportbike fan, bikes like the Ducati 748R might seem like the poor cousin to the 916/996/998, a bike you only bought because your funds wouldn’t stretch to the more expensive, larger-displacement version. But no “R” model Ducati really takes a back seat to anything: they were homologation specials, and the 748R was…
Ducati’s iconic 900 SuperSport has everything you need and nothing you don’t. The early 90’s edition inspired this retro-faired monoposto, where even more of everything is out in the open. The custom frame, tank and fairing hang together very well, looking like a Friday afternoon ride into the hills waiting to happen. 1993 Ducati 900SS…
When the 999 series was introduced in 2003 as the successor to the fantastic 916/996/998 genealogy of Ducati Superbikes, the world collectively groaned. Far removed from the sexy, flowing lines of the Tamburini-penned predecessors, the Terblanche-designed 999 series was rough and angular. The stacked headlight arrangement made the bike instantly recognizable in the sort of…
Ducati definitely had a Monster for every rider in the mid-oughties, from a 996cc water-cooled naked superbike to a M400 progressive license special. The 800 S2R had a firm hold on the middle of the road, air-cooled and torquey, sporty but more like a ragtop sports car. This example barely has break in miles and…
Long and lean, Ducati’s 1000 Dual Spark SuperSport impressed reviewers with stable handling and sensible seat height. Its 85 air-cooled hp don’t snap the bike upright but do just fine making the cars and bikes behind get smaller. This 2004 model has miles but recent maintenance and a very factory appearance. 2004 Ducati 1000DS SuperSport…
Today’s post is for a Ducati FILA 999R in Florida with less than 2,000 miles since new. While the 999 series isn’t hard to find for sale, approximately 70 FILA editions were imported into the USA so finding one in this condition and mileage is quite rare. 2004 999R FILA with under 1300 miles on…
The Ducati 888 filled the gap between the brand-redefining 851 and the legendary 916, bumping the 851’s fuel-injected, liquid-cooled, four-valve L-twin to 888cc. The inbetweener status didn’t phase the bike much, though, as it was enough for Doug Polen to net back-to-back World Superbike championships in ’91 and ’92. Production ended in ’94 as the…
