In searching our archives for previous DB4 listings, I suspect this bike has potentially been on our site twice before. Why not a third time? The factory race kit adds FCR carbs, titanium exhaust, and a special tank to clear the carbs. Not to mention all the other goodies that came with it standard: Paoli…
Location: Minden, Nevada Mileage: 12,400 Price: Auction, current bid $2,025 Big v-twin race bikes. There was a time when many manufacturers built these, not just those little labels out of Italy.

It was the first water-cooled 4 valve twin that has been the foundation of all the engines through to the current 1198 in the Superbikes. While the bike has 851 as its designation the engine actually displaced 888cc which by 1993…
