Finally Bought A 900ss!

Discussion in 'Ducati General Discussion' started by 900theginge, Oct 1, 2022.

  1. Hi all, after a ton of research, I’ve pulled the trigger and bought myself a 1993 900SS. Amazing condition, UK bike with only 15k miles. Fresh MOT today and some new belts from Ducati Alton ready to fit in the next couple of weeks.

    Here’s a lovely pic…

  11. That looks really nice, it’s absolutely spotless and very standard looking, just as they should be.
    The engine must of been out for painting at some time recently as it’s looking factory fresh, but the factory paint only lasted till the first service!!!!
    Was it a private sale or from a dealer, whatever the price it was a steal as the prices are only going one way ☝️

  16. Thanks. Yep the previous owner had the engine out as it’s had new cylinders and rebuild. He had it shot/soda blasted it and sprayed. I’m impressed with the history file too, loads of bits to geek off over all the way back to its first service.
    I bought it from a dealer in Cheltenham but his stock was mainly £100k Vincent’s so he was keen to move it on…luckily for me

    spot the odd one out

  17. Are they mirror extenders fitted
     
  18. Yep. brancato engineering mirror extensions. I was going to take them off but they are really useful!
     
  19. Looks great - nice one!
     
  20. Congratulations! Looks lovely
    My first Ducati was a ‘93 900 SS …
    Wish I’d never sold it now :(
