Description

Click here for a VINData Motorcycle History Report on this 1995 Ducati 900SS/SP #265. Please note: VINData erroneously refers to this Ducati as a 2025 model. Additional photos are available here for your perusal.

In this piece on Cycle World, Peter Egan says that this 900SS is “the used motorcycle you need” and notes that “they made perfectly comfortable long-­distance touring bikes, but on ­winding roads through the Black Hills, they metamorphosed back into sportbikes of deep finesse, with killer, real-world midrange and light, intuitive handling.”

Mikuni carbs fed the air-cooled 904cc air/oil cooled V-Twin which was good for just under 80 horsepower. Combined with a dry weight of 414 pounds and classic Ducati styling, the 900SS was quite the commercial success – almost 28k of them were sold over a seven year run.

Befitting the Bologna-based motorcycle company, the 900SS was offered in a limited ‘Sport Production’ trim. Beyond the scarcity of the motorcycle, the SP model was offered with a larger rear wheel (1-inch to be exact), fully-adjustable suspension, carbon fiber accents throughout, and floating brake rotors.

Manufactured June 1994, this example is VIN: ZDM1LC4M1SB015841. The seller acquired the bike one year ago through an Iconic Motorbikes auction.

It is #265.

The odometer shows 7,125 miles.

Maintenance:
The previous owner had the bike serviced in 2021 by Pro Italia in Los Angeles, California, which included a carburetor rebuild and sync, installing a new battery, installing a new spark plug, and replacing a timing belt.
