Stue11 0 Posted July 4, 2012 Yea hes right Mike the Desmoscedici is the same bike that was raced in motogp in 2003/04 they only made 1500 of em i think, and they costed £39.995 new...the only difeerence between the road version apart from lights etc etc is that the brakes are steel as apposed to carbon fibre that motogp bikes use in the dry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That Ducati looks stunning! and least it was dry mate! Correct on the location Got a few showers on the way over, via Richmond/ Catterick, but nothing too long. Just annoying Ducati was nice, and the tyre was well worn across the width of it, so he'd been riding it "properly" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mind you, treat it as an investment and you could make of it. Can't see the price going down much on these Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
