2007 Ducati SportClassic 1000 Special Edition #18/100 With 982 Miles

Description

Click here for an VINData Motorcycle History Report on this 2007 Ducati SportClassic 1000 Special Edition.

In 2007, Ducati released a limited edition of just 100 SportClassics exclusively for the North American market. Called the Special Edition, it combined modern tech with traditionally-inspired design to remind Ducati fans of the 1978 900SS Darmah with its classic black and gold paint scheme. A mere 90 were sold in the US, and 10 were sold in Canada.

The Special Edition is one of the rarest modern Ducatis, and they were sold as Monopostos with an identification plaque on the triple trees. Other modifications to make this bike unique included spoked wire wheels, twin muffler shotgun exhaust, and one Sachs shock (as opposed to the dual shocks of the other SportClassics) to make room for said exhaust.

This example is VIN: ZDM1WABP27B003164. The seller “bought it in September 2022 from the original owner (my long time friend). His brother was an engineer at Ducati and told him it’s a must buy and put his name on the list. My friend sold the bike to me so he could purchase his dream Ferrari. My friend had to work overseas for many years and had the bike dry stored for years in a temperature controlled garage, hence the low mileage. The Motor Cafe was commissioned to bring out of dry storage and go through the whole bike. This included cam belts.”

It is production number #18/100.

During his ownership, the seller covered approximately 120 miles. The odometer shows 982 miles.
