Description

Americans received the “new” SuperSport in 1991 as a 900, however Ducati had actually introduced the model in 1987 in other markets with a 750cc engine. It did not go well, and the next year they tried again with a Pantah-based 904cc engine – this 900SS was produced between 1988-1990 and it is a rare predecessor to the much more ubiquitous 900SS that Peter Egan would go on to call “the used motorcycle you need.” In 1990, Bob Miller of Miller Specialties imported ten examples of the 900SS to the US – here’s one of them!

This model is an interesting moment in Ducati’s history as the firm barely acknowledges it today and there’s relatively little information available about them online. But the first 900SS pushed 80 horsepower through a six-speed transmission, helped by an improved cooling system and a Weber carb.

This example is VIN: ZDM906SCMLB000906. The seller purchased this example new from Miller Specialties in Clinton, Connecticut.

The odometer shows 7,160 miles. The seller accounts for all miles.

Maintenance:
The seller states they recently had the motorcycle serviced, which included a carburetor rebuild and new tires.

The seller reports other basic maintenance was performed by themselves, which includes oil changes and other basic services.

Modifications:
Miller Specialties added the following work to this SuperSport prior to sale:
Custom performance mufflers.

Modified handlebars and mirrors.

Fox Racing rear shock.

Weber carburetors.

Inside of the tank:

It is riding on Pirelli tires with date codes of 3921 and 3521.

The sale includes one key.

Cosmetic Blemishes: please see the album up top for all known cosmetic blemishes. Here is a selection:



The seller summarizes their bike by saying it “is likely the cleanest/lowest mile example in the US” and this motorcycle “would make a great vintage rider, or a nice addition to any collection.
