Up and coming sale - Coys have listed the Ducati's they are selling on Pistonheads. Some interesting bikes and prices :Wideyed: some reasonable, some high... Used 2001 Ducati 996 SPS for sale in Surrey | Pistonheads
This looks well odd - but first look at Coys notes for accuracy: After the huge success of the Massimo Tamburini designed 916/996/998 series, a new desmodromic Ducati v-twin was introduced in 2003 A 999 for £22,000 with a few second hand 'nice' parts stuck on it. They don't even say it's an R - and looking at the frame it's more likely a base model that's been cut up a bit at the foot peg mounts... 16.5" wheels too :Wacky: Used 2004 Ducati 999 Toseland Replica for sale in Surrey | Pistonheads
You can tell it's not a R frame. The exh hanger mount above the rh rearset is welded on. On a R frame, these can be unbolted.(At least they can on a 749R)
You can also check by seeing if the frame front cross brace can be unbolted. They are welded in on non R frames.
Estimated £50k-£60 for a 996RS ridden by Troy Corser in 1999 ? Ouch ! I wonder if it has been ridden since ? Andy
Isn't that the one a poster saw for sale and enquired about recently, lots of chat about it, all suggested A) its unlikely to have been used by him in that guides B) it has had the good stuff stripped C) its worth less than half that. Don't know if to was Henk but one of the Dutch boys kew who had it before and seemed very genned up on it, If its the same bike
And here's a base model mono for more money! Ducati 749 - Outstanding original condition throughout !!
That was the bike I went to see Sunday last week and is known to the forum. IMO £6800 wasn't bad money because it was not original, very nice and loved but converted to single projector head light, aftermarket nose cone, tiny tear drop after market carbon wing mirrors, plus some minor stuff without any of the major original bits. I think Pip was only selling it as he has a new money sink 2-stroke project . Whoever bought it got a good deal on a riding bike rather than a collecting bike. Andy
0460 used to belong to final edition. He sold it to a dealer up Norwich way. It was totally standard in great condition before it was messed about.
Yes,was me. It has been driven here in belgium was somebody his trackbike. That owner had a trick senna as well. As said that "RS"is a great looking bike. But is not what they say it is. Henk!!!
