2003 Ducati Multistrada 1000DS

2003 Ducati Multistrada 1000DS

19. 00 miles. Luggage. Carbon rear hugger. Colour matched (long) front mudguard extension (very effective). Additional screen mounted adjustable wind deflector.  Colour matched Hand deflectors. Carbon belly pan.   Ducati Performance seat (slight tear ?ˆ“ see photo). ST panniers (larger than MS ones) with custom rack. Large top box colour matched (Italian made ?ˆ“I don?ˆ™t recall make at the moment. not Givi) One reflector on the box is broken however (photo). Two 12V sockets nicely mounted on frame (additional 12V socket in box ?ˆ“ although wiring not connected). Oxford heated grips. Very good paint on panels and frame . Usual flaking of paint off the clutch cover .   Very good tyres/chain/sprockets.

LCD display (a common problem with this model) is ALL WORKING.

Down side. the bike doesn?ˆ™t idle well (I am told probably valve clearances). Also the temperature sensor probably requires replacement as it only reaches a maximum indicated temp of 50C.

I bought this bike in September (with the faults above) and had a place to keep it over winter. whilst I had the work done. This arrangement has fallen through and I can?ˆ™t find anywhere else to keep it inside locally and I don?ˆ™t want it left outside over winter - it is too good for that. I don?ˆ™t want to break it or give it away though so my reserve is low but not silly.

HPI clear - I can provide the certificate.

Full service (incl belts. fork oil. valves clearances etc) in 2007 @10. 00 miles

New battery 2013. Recent service history. oil changes etc. were carried out according to previous owner. but not documented. No service book.

Red key and code card present. One black key.

This is great looking bike with many extras. which handles well and. pulls well too. It is let down by its poor idling and its service history and I think I have priced it accordingly.  

Cash on collection. no paypal. money in my hand and valid insurance for test ride

The bike is advertised elsewhere so maybe withdrawn.
