Every once in a while, we get a submission that’s so comprehensive that it doesn’t make sense for us to try and paraphrase it. This is one of those listings, so we’ll let the seller take it from here:

“Throughout the late 80’s and 90’s single cylinder racing was very popular world wide. The Ducati Supermono was the obvious choice if you could obtain one.”

“The builder of this bike was a racer and wanted a single cylinder racer to compete with against the unobtainable Ducati Supermono and other single cylinder race bikes so he built this bike in the spirit of the Ducati Supermono. The Rotax single cylinder engines were competitive in all forms of racing and putting one in a first class Tigcraft Chassis produced a competitive racer.”

“I raced the singles class for many years on my Ducati Supermono and purchasing this bike allowed me to retire it. I never did get to race this bike due to commitments running our motorcycle dealership, so the bike has sat on display for the last 10 years next to my Supermono.”

This example does not have a VIN. Per the seller, “I purchased this bike from a private owner, who purchased it from noted bike builder Chuck Davis out of Michigan.”

There is no odometer, true mileage is unknown. The seller states that the bike has covered approximately 75 miles.

Maintenance:
The seller states that he has “changed the oil and filter.” He adds that he “does not have a charging cable for the Scitsu Tachometer.”
