That’s interesting and could be the mystery solved? Glossy Black factory colour option, Nero, Ducati UK marketing strategy to shift remaining stock? Or does it mention Nero in the text?
From a fold out brochure from 05 showing yellow 749 bip. There was a facelift 999 in yellow I think(on here a few moths back?). All factory, brochures are multi lingual inc Japan so presume sold worldwide. Marketed as gloss black,nero. Same thing.
Cool info - so there was no factory Nero model then is what I was inferring? Many advertise the 'Dark' as Nero's which is naughty as Darks the were a bargain basement model - many think the Nero was a factory specific model spec including me. The current ad on Ebay of the Nero Mono 999 states Ducati UK limited Edition Nero model 1 of 50 - which were end of line clear-out's and perhaps re painted - as the Air Wave bikes were. It would be good to know for certain, not being funny here - just looking for the facts
