Radical Ducati are closing I've just seen a message on Facebook from them announcing they are closing! It's a real shame as I loved the customs they build :-(
Dear Ducatistis -I inform you that RADICAL DUCATI close his workshop and stop his activity. It has been more than 15 years of passion, designing, fabricating, riding and developing my dreams. Now is time to stop and make a change in my life. I want to thanks all of you for your support and for share our passion. The Radical Ducati facebook and blog would work for maintain and share our RAD spirit with all of you.
Sad news :frown: Pepo emailed me about this, and it's such a shame that someone with such a creative mind is taking a break. I personally hope that he'll be back
Pepo put such a lot of design time into his stuff, it's a shame he's taken this tough decision :frown:
I'm being told today that Radical have shut up shop ??? If this is true I am very saddened to hear it, I was over with Pepo just before Xmas and he did not say anything, I have mailed him today, just hoping its gossip with no substance
Very simply, despite a world-wide following, international press adulation, prizes and magazine articles, too few people bought anything while he spared no expense in building his creations. He still has half a dozen bikes to sell, ranging in price from under ten to over thirty thousand Euros. For example: Remaining stock - Matador Racer, - Metralla - Montjuich TT - Silver Shotgun - DIRT RAD Serious enquiries to Pepo @ Radical Ducati
Their bikes may become classic/collectable and radical is becoming a byword for that style of bike. They've certainly made their mark on the custom bike scene.
