The Ducati 888 was an upgrade to the Ducati 851. The earlier 851 had introduced liquid cooling, computerised fuel injection and four-valve heads to the company's two-cylinder motors. In 1991 Ducati increased the capacity of the 851 to 888 cc to create the 888. Both engines featured the Desmoquattro valvetrain concept, in which a four-valve per cylinder motor was given desmodromic valve actuation, with cams both opening and closing the valves. Ducati's desmodromic system reduces the frictional penalty from conventional valve springs.
Described as in very good condition throughout, with little use since lockdown. This machine is thought to have covered well under 10,000 miles from new with 5 previous owners and current ownership since 2012. The paperwork file includes original PDI and warranty sheets, ownership history, old MOTs, invoices, service book, Datatag and Datatool information etc. The last major specialist service occurred in May, 2019, included a timing belt change. There are various additional parts including speedometer (km – 10,140,) a pair of Ducati cans, rear pegs etc. Please Note: A cherished registration number transfer in progress.
