That will keep you busy for a bit mate! Look forward to seeing how she comes on..I have a friend who is a Ducati specialist, midlands based, if you feel you need any work done to it motor (or anything else) wise.

Needs a shed load doing with it, I used to have an 888 and loved the riding position and the way it handled.
Hoping this will be a similar ride in the roads

That's a great price regardless of what it needs doing. Would fetch a lot more that that over here in the States!!

Superb, the value is only going to go in one direction, dont let the rebuild costs spiral out of control.

That's an absolute steal at 500 notes, I had a superlight 5 number 231 that I sold back in 2008 to fund the purchase of a 916sp.
They are great bikes, bags of torque and character and really nice to ride.
That's looks like a 3 or 4 judging by the cast iron front rotors?
Keep posting on your progress or if you get bored I will give ya 600 for it lol

I Hope you didn't buy the genuine Duc igniter's, try a programmable Ignitec, far more reliable half the price and programmable and you only need one
If its not too late send them back
Have a M900 carb version and they work a treat so much more response from the throttle

Not much to those frames is there! Agreed. Looks like it should fold in half. Great project, looking forward to the progress. |
