Ducati 851/888 Forum

I've owned mine for over 23 years, built quite few motors, I'm one of the mod's on the 851/888 Forum, taken my own one to 140rwbhp* with a fully wet weight of 350lbs and I'm an unashamed anorak on these models.

*With more genuine factory parts than the customer racer models.

Patience is required, until either the seller realises he overpriced it or you’ve saved enough to realise his over ambitious pricing.

 

What about this one ?

Patiences's not my middle name & will never be at my age now.

 

If I had £30K+ kicking around I'd put in a bid for it.

I thought you did have Steve looking at the way you've been buying bikes of late.

 

You've got me mixed up with someone else chap, the last new bike I bought was back in 1983.
The last 2nd hand one was close to 13 years ago????
I have spent a small fortune on bits of bike over the last few years though, probably more than most spend on a new bike or 3.

I thought i would list this one here for a change instead of the ebay section, 888 SP5 in from Japan in yellow folks.

Must've missed this, 93 and 94 888 Stradas here, both taxed

 

Are you saying you've two Ducati's.

 

Yes two strada's
Is that what the register is? I need to read through it ha

 

It's a update job for @Chris and his post#178

 

Ahh I see, thank you

 

Hoarding……..no wonder there’s a shortage.

 

Rumour has it, also both brimming with unleaded no doubt.

 

I wish they were

 

Where are the photographs for these two Italian beauties.

 

I bought the one with the ex Graeme Ritchie engine(SP3) that was on ebay the other week, had to be done
