2007 Ducati 999 with 749R Bodywork

Description

Additional photos are available here for your perusal.

After a long series of 916-based superbikes, Ducati dramatically mixed things up styling-wise with the vertically-stacked lights and double-sided swingarm of the 999 in 2003.

The styling was polarizing but the riding experience was not. And while many Ducatisti favored the up-spec S and R models, the base model was a quality machine in its own right. Suspension came courtesy of Showa, brakes were taken care of via a Brembo setup, and output amounted to a healthy 140 horses at 9,750rpm and 80lb-ft of torque at 8,000rpm.

This example is VIN: ZDMH400AA2B000898. It came to Iconic as an import from Japan; prior history is not known.

The odometer shows 25,072 kilometers (15,579 miles).
