Pensions ... I didn't expect ever to need one. But against all expectations, here I am, still! New Multi in 2013 and planning to add a PP this year. Can't imagine not donning a crash helmet so will resort to a Canam Spyder when the legs get too weak!!
I have never driven one, but the Spyder has handlebars and not a steering wheel. I like handlbars! Oddly enough, I used to live in Caterham!
No strokers (pity though - love H1's and H2's) the Z1b turbo in my avatar, a few modern ish jap 4's, an old 1986 GSXR750-RR with a dry clutch. My 2 project KR1000's of course - see build thread on here...
But he also uses a Monster 900 I picked up for him from a contact and says it was surprising fast and competitive. Interesting!
That's yummie, haven't seen that particular frame before...knew a bloke years ago who had the first Moriwaki race bike with frame number 1
I would say anything from what I paid for it £3650 to £4000 maybe in the future. Less than 20 UK models exist now as I know of at least three that have been written off. I have done less than 500 miles on it since buying it simply because I bought another 748 and now use that. I have the original bill of sale showing 8 delivery\test miles from Moto Cinelli who were the importers at the time along with the SPS handook which was specific to that model, the gold paddock stand and yellow cover which sadly has seen much better days as it's no more than an overgrown J cloth!!! A unique bike to ride and cheaper to run than an R as belt changes are every 2 years.
Here's one that was for sale on a UK website although the bike is in Spain same site as the person who wants £25,000 near enough for a supposed NCR 848. Ducati Indiana 650 For Sale (1990) on Car And Classic UK [C487767]
Ducati Prototipo 750 ss ( unico ) For Sale (1971) on Car And Classic UK [C565536] Regarding what my prototype may be 'seemingly' worth in the future check out this link. Doesn't look like a prototype to me with all that bling, more like a concept if Ducati built it. I do think this is a little far fetched Perhaps an Italian speakerer can translate and tell us what it is?
From Google Translate "I offer this gem of engineering which the magazine 's January 1998 World Ducati dedicate ' the cover and a long article , calling the Ducati most valuable in the world . To see the technical references : Chapter 11/3 Facebook The bike is equipped with a super engine still does not and has never been set in motion"
Well, not sure if it's the most valuable in the world, but it's certainly the dearest I should put mine up for £200K then mine would be the dearest ead:
It's different I'll give you that! I don't like the bling though. Considering the supposed value it would have been nice to have had more detail from the seller as to what it actually is purporting to be I think!
