1998 Ducati 916 SPS

Rare 1998 Ducati 916 SPS Homologation Special and is being listed here with no reserve. Homologated for racing. only 50 were officially imported into the US. This one is California registered. Despite the 916 designation. the bike features a factory tuned 996cc motor with dual injectors. Titanium rods. oversized valves and crank. strengthened engine cases and frame. It includes an Ohlins rear shock and steering damper. nbsp;carbon airbox and front fender. The factory provided two sets of pipes including the off-road Termignoni carbon exhausts and matching ECU currently installed.  For more details on this special model google ducati 916 sps and check out the odd-bike write-up. This bike has been modified to include Ohlins forks with billet lower triple clamp and Ohlin factory SBK valving. Front brakes are Brembo Narrow Track GP calipers and rotors with Brembo radial master cylinders. The oil cooler was replaced with an oversized Ducati Corsa unit. It also includes carbon air intakes. vented clutch cover and lightened flywheel.  Cosmetically the bike is in good condition with flaws typical of a bike of this age. There is a scratch in the gel coat on the lower left panel. a very minor detent in the tank on the left side and surface scratches on the tank in front of the saddle. The carbon fender. airbox and exhaust canisters have faded to a matte finish. I have additional aftermarket parts available for purchase separately including Marchesini mag wheels. new carbon airbox and front fender. billet racing (reverse shift) footpegs. an unpainted sharkskin fiberglass race body and most of the original stock parts that were switched out. This motorcycle has had a recent complete service at Desmoto Sport in San Francisco which included valve adjustment and belt replacement. Tires are in near new condition.
