Ducati Superbike description

I purchased the bike because I always wanted a Ducati.  I found out that it just isnt the bike for me.  Anyway, as soon as I got the bike I took it to the local Ducati service center and had them go through it for a thorough once over.  They found a few bolts missing and a wrong bolts being used in place of OEM but nothing major.  All items found were fixed right up and no problems reported further.  The bike is perfectly safe and runs down the road straight as an arrow!  We now have newer tires, brakes (including rotors), new upgraded computer chip, new battery and tender, among many other parts.  The bike as I see it has been laid down in the past (as mentioned at low speed) but, it did not have any frame, fork or tree damage at all.  Just ate up the plastics and brake handle on right side as well as bar end.  You barely even notice it until you look for it.  It still has low miles for the year and runs out very nice (Especially now that we have gone through and repaired, replaced and maintained the bike as it should actually be.  I can answer any questions you have about it through email.  If you are looking for a perfect bike this isn't it.  However, if you are looking for a good starter bike or a just your first Ducati to get your feet wet this may be the bike for you.  I am taking a loss on it as priced but like I said it isn't the bike for me.  I am a rice-rocket kinda guy who wanted to be a bit different but just cannot get out of the whole "Jap-Bike" mentality.  I will add more pics when I get the chance or email them to you as requested.  I only had one on my computer to load at this time, my apologies.  Oh and the bike has custom cover seats, custom exhaust (sounds like a v-8 v's a 4 cylinder) kinda like a Focus v's a Mustang if you compare my CBR to it> lol  It has a much throatier lower range sound by far! For the buy it now price I will throw in the custom painted (themed) med Iron Man helmet.  You wanna stand out and/or get attention the combo of the two will get it but the helmet alone will get you tons!  Bike is fuel injected and gets great gas mileage!

Thu, 11 Apr 2013

Canada’s Amarok Racing has secured quite a coup in signing six-time Pikes Peak International Hill Climb winner Greg Tracy to ride its P1A electric superbike for the 2013 edition of the event. Tracy has six class victories in the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, winning in 1996, 1999, 2006, 2008, 2009 and 2010. His victories have come riding motorcycles from several manufacturers: Honda, Yamaha, BMW and, more recently, Ducati.

GSX-R 600 gets Milan makeover

Wed, 08 Jun 2011

Think of bike bolt-ons, and you’ll probably think GSX-R with an iridium screen and blue anodized bar ends. So trust Italian company Rizoma to show us how to do it properly, subtly even. You only have to look at their GSX-R600 showcase bike to see how they do ‘bolt-on’.

Moto2 needs more radical bikes

Wed, 05 Sep 2012

Makers of fine exhausts, Taylormade Racing have built a Moto2 racer that harks back to the innovative machines like the Elf Honda 500 and Britten V1000. Since Moto2's inception in 2010 the class has featured bikes with conventional chassis but the Taylormade bike, designed by Paul Taylor and John Keogh, has a radical design featuring a carbon-fibre monocoque frame, carbon-fibre swingarm, wishbone monoshock front suspension and an under-seat radiator. However, with such radical engineering the inherent problem is that it is a risk for teams to invest in such a project.
