A really, really special bike this one, and what (affordable) dreams are made of really. Pretty much the ultimate in 'modern classic' Ducatis, the S came dripping into exotic equipment names:
Fully adjustable 43 mm Öhlins FG511 forks with low friction Titanium Nitride-treated fork sliders, fully adjustable Öhlins 46PRC rear shock mounted to an utterly gorgeous single-sided swingarm and an Öhlins adjustable steering damper.
Dual Brembo M4 Monoblock radial front brake calipers and single 2-piston rear.
Marchesini forged and machined wheels, reducing weight by 4 lbs vs the standard 1098 wheels.
Full Termignoni 70mm serpentine works exhaust and silencers.
This particular example, with its Ducati Performance dry clutch and Termi soundtrack, sounds absolutely incredible - so good in fact, you can feel it rattling your rib cage. It's genuinely intoxicating.
Whilst it has covered 20,000 miles, it's clearly been well loved by its 3 owners and is offered in rude health. We have a folder full of invoices and history, all the owners manuals, a stamped service book with 8 stamps (inc. a host of belt changes, last done in Nov '23) and a recent service at 19,722 miles.
Before leaving us, the bike will go through a full 60 point PDI and we will be changing the brake fluid as from the history we have, we don't think it was done at the last service.
The bike comes with 3 keys, key code card, MOT until October 2025 and a class-leading 6 month warranty which is extendable up to 2 years. Nationwide delivery at favourable rates and we'll happily assess your PX.
