Odometer reading: 14,783 km (Not Warranted)
MoT expiry date: 6 March 2021
*135mph state of the art road going motorcycle
*An icon of the 1970s and 80s
*Ray Petty Meccanica dating letter
A landmark model, the Mike Hailwood Replica owes its existence to Mike The Bike's legendary Isle of Man TT comeback victory in the 1978 Production Race riding an ex-works NCR bike entered by Sports Motor Cycles. Based on the production 900SS, the MHR's most obvious difference was the full fairing finished in red, green and white. Mechanical changes were confined to lighter wheels, usually by Campagnolo, and improved Brembo brakes, while the MHR's performance was pretty much the same as that of the 900SS: around 135mph flat-out.
The MHR presented here is usually nicknamed the 'Hailwood Mille', getting a 1,000cc engine, a factory electric starter and a large fairing. The vendor purchased the machine from Yoshi Kosaka of The Garage Company in California and imported it direct from Japan 4 years ago. Recently MoT'd with no advisories, the machine is reported by the private seller to be running well. The machine was recently checked over by leading Ducati specialist Ray Petty Meccanica and had one of the carburettors floats unstuck and then synced. Offered with a V5C, Ray Petty Meccanica dating letter stating that the machine is a genuine example, and Ducati Owners Club Motorcycle Age Certificate stating that this example is from the final production run of this model.
