Ducati Superlight Mark lV 900cc 2 cylinder V Twin Desmodue.   Photos below.

Date of registration: 6th September 1995  (N plate)   Limited edition number 641 of 1000 built

MOT: new   

Please don’t buy this bike – I love it!  

This Limited Edition version of the 900SS has recently become one of the most sought after bikes around and is fast appreciating in value.   This one is all original except for the BOS exhaust cans – which are some of the best you can buy for this bike and were only fitted a thousand miles ago at a cost of over £400.  They sound superb but are not technically road legal.  Push in baffles can be stored under the seat unit and inserted when necessary!  However, it also comes with the original exhausts too which are in excellent condition and get put on for MoT tests. 

The rear suspension unit has also been replaced with an excellent “WP” unit.  The bike has done just 17,000 miles and has full service history (three stamps) recent services have been done at Three Legged Cross Motorcycles – one of the leading importers of Ducatis in the south of England.  It has recently been serviced again and had new timing belts.  The rear tyre is like new and the front tyre is less than half way to the limit. 

The bike is not quite immaculate.  There is a little cracking to the gel coat around the seat mounts and the central fairing support – a common problem.  The wheels have been painted yellow to match the rest of the bike.  While I think it looks good, it is not the original colour which should match the frame.  The rest is all original – including the black carbon fibre mudguards and clutch cover.  There are a few very light scratches and stone chips on the fairing which will all but disappear with a light touch up. 

There is a slight crack to the headlight lens but inside it is all dry. There is a slight imperfection on the surface of the carbon fibre on top of the front mudguard. I comes with the relevant Haynes Workshop Manual.
