If you’re not familiar with this monster motard, here’s the short version: in the spring of 2005, Ducati designer Pierre Terblanche pitched management on an extreme street fighter — street performance in a new aesthetic package. The concept bike debuted that fall in Milan. Based on the hugely positive reaction the bike received from motorcyclists around the world, company president Federico Minoli green-lighted the project immediately.
It has been one of Ducati’s most popular bikes since due to its torque and agility. The model was updated in 2019 as a 950, and MCN called it “the consummate street hooligan.”
It was updated again 2021 so that it could pass Euro5 emissions regulations, and it thankfully gave up no performance despite the changes. Ducati claimed 112 horsepower and 71 lb-ft of torque from the 937cc V-Twin (also used in the Monster and SuperSport 950).
The top of the line SP was differentiated by Öhlins suspension, Marchesini wheels, a bi-directional quickshifter, and a custom livery.
This example is VIN: ZDMBAJDT6MB008165. The seller acquired it from Ducati Newport Beach in May 2024 and he simultaneously purchased a 3-year/unlimited mile extended warranty (Ducati Ever Red Platinum) that expires on 5/11/2027 and is transferable for $50.
During his ownership, the seller has covered 2,450 miles. The odometer shows 5,434 miles.
“I have loved this bike since the first moment I test rode it. It has been tons of fun and every single mile on it left a huge grin on my face. It’s a sad departure, but due to a new street bike project and increased dirt bike time I don’t spend as much time on it anymore. So here I am, hoping it can continue to donate smiles to someone who will love her.”
