Ducati Superbike description

I'm selling my all-time favorite bike. 


This is a 2002 Ducati 998s Ben Bostrom limited edition super bike. It is built to commemorate Ben Bostrom's 998 and is signed by him on the gas tank with a clear coat on top. There were only 155 of these built. This is number 151. 

Unlike the Troy Bayliss edition with 400 produced, the Ben Bostrom edition is much more rare and only seen in magazines or online. I've never seen one on the road or at exhibitions. 

This bike is totally fresh with a new lithium battery, brand new tires and fluids. It will ship with the stock exhaust, stock clutch plate and cover. Those in the picture are not included in this auction. Some of the stock highlights are carbon fairings, Ohlins forks, Ohlins rear and Ohlins steering damper. It has a carbon chain guard and a carbon license plate assembly. 

There is a small scrape on the back fairing that happened when I swung my foot over the back the first time. 

These bikes are appreciating quickly so this is your rare chance to get one.  

This is the bike that even the Ducati dealer walks out to check it out.

Max points haul for Morris at Assen

Tue, 17 May 2011

Leon Morris (Buildbase/JHP Ducati) took both wins at Round Two of the Rapid Solicitors Ducati 848 Challenge rounding out a very challenging weekend for all the rider and teams at Assen. The changeable weather conditions made for last-minute tyre decisions and tricky racing conditions as the rain came in heavy bursts throughout the weekend, leaving a number of riders out on track on the wrong tyres. Qualifying on Saturday was typical, as the weather rendered two of the three qualifying sessions damp, leaving only the early afternoon session in which all the riders posted a fast time.

Edible Ducati Streetfighter

Thu, 29 Oct 2009

CEO Bob Parsons, owner and founder of GoDaddy.com threw an all out bash at his wedding this weekend. By far the coolest part was the fully edible, full size replica Ducati Streetfighter, designed by celebrity cake maker, Duff Goldman. Complete with working lights and smoking exhaust, this 400lb cake took 8 men to lift into place and is by far the coolest wedding cake we've ever seen.
