Registration no. R948 SKW

Engine no. ZDM916W4010611

In addition to the Ducati 916 Strada base model there were a number of limited edition versions of superior specification, one of which - the Senna - commemorated the late Formula 1 World Champion, Ayrton Senna, who had owned an 851 and was a friend of Ducati's owners, the Castiglioni brothers. The Senna first appeared in 1995, differing from the Strada by virtue of its predominantly dark grey colour scheme, 916SPS chassis and running gear, and Pankl con-rods inside the engine. Two further series were produced - the Senna II and Senna III - with different colour schemes and only minor changes before the model was deleted at the end of 1998. Approximately 300 of each series were produced.

Displaying a total of 8,855 kilometres on the odometer at time of cataloguing, this Senna II has had two previous owners and has belonged to our vendor since 1st August 2013. Used sparingly, the machine has covered only some 30 kilometres since then and benefits from a recent renewal of the timing belts undertaken by Signature Moto on 21st March 2022. Accompanying documentation includes a V5C; the 2013 sales invoice; expired MoTs; current MoT (expires June 2024); 2013 HPI report; service invoice; and the 2022 invoice for belt replacement. Remus silencers are fitted at present (standard end cans included).
