interesting bikes found randomly..

Liked, mostly because it looks like my old zxr400 if you squint a bit

Looks more like a knocked over bucket of lego to me!

[KungFooBob]

what is interesting about the X-09 is that the later ones had an upside down v twin, crank at the top cylinders hanging down

Not like you, etc......

A bit over priced seeing as you can get a 2021 model with more ponies for only £3459.00 Little has changed in its evolution.

I wonder what it cost new?

The dealer is also selling a Repsol Fireblade.

Full descriptions on the YT posts.

That's a bit drastic..... V4S Panigale with a terminal engine failure.

Like the paint scheme and the looks...apart from that tail unit. Bleauuuurgh.

One of my favourite Ducati 900SS builds. I really want that seat unit for my 900SS trackbike!!

For once, the lines of the seat unit blend with the fairing and tank.

I like it. I'm not emptying the piggy bank, but I'd certainly stop and admire it if I passed it on the street. I think a nice sunny day might have done the photos some favours too.

And from someone who works at the dealer. I would be somewhat worried about the longevity of V4 motors ..

I'm surprised a sales manager at a bike shop can afford to throw a V4 out and buy another V4 so he can finish the remainder of his trackdays.
Maybe in the 1970's when bike were flying out of the showroom but I wonder what a PAYE sales manager earns now in a bike shop?

I'd do something different with the seat unit but that's really nice otherwise.

Surprised that someone who's allegedly sales manager for a Ducati franchise will be popular for going on record as saying its a premature engine fault......

Maybe using the shops "demo" bike for trackdays, just tell hq that the test riders ragged it to death and blag a new one for the shop?

They all do if they're raced and not regularly rebuilt.
They're not built to last forever if they're ridden hard.

[KungFooBob]

It has had a rear end shunt too, so could have been running on it's side for a while or suffered some other damage that didn't present itself until a year of trackdays later.

Surely it's an electrical problem?
