2008 Ducati 1098
Frame no. ZDM1XBEW08007673
Engine no. to be advised

The 1098 is usually considered as tribute to the beautiful Ducati 916 that was penned by Massimo Tamburini in the 1990s. The 1098 was designed by Giandrea Fabbro who applied these styling effects that made Ducati and the 916 so appealing, including that fairing showing just enough of the engine and those two pipes located just under the rider's seat, which gives a very neat and aggressive design. The design also included a tubular frame and a single-sided swingarm.

Like any Ducati, the bikes is gifted with some of the best parts and components a sport bike would need. First and foremost, a high-performance engine. Indeed, Ducati gifted the 1098 with their new Testatretta Evoluzione motor, producing 160hp and some 90.4 ft.lb of torque. Obviously brakes, with huge 330mm discs being stopped by Brembo Monobloc calipers. The bike also features a power producing GP6-derived elliptical throttle bodies, technology exclusively used in MotoGP before that. On top of that, fully adjustable Showa shocks for the regular model and Ohlins for the 'S' version, gives the 1098 resources to be used as hard as the rider can.

The 1098 presented here has been described by the vendor as in wonderful condition and comes with the original owner's manual and a spare key.
