• Number 44 of just 309 produced
• A very clean and original Superlight
• Offered with good service history

In response to the demand for larger capacity bikes, Ducati's chief engineer Fabio Taglioni designed the classic V-twin bevel-drive engine first used in the 1971 GT750. This proved to be an immediate success, helped considerably by Paul Smart’s win in the 1972 Imola 200 race. This started a tradition of race-winning V-twins that have gone on to dominate World Superbike racing over the years. The limited edition of just 309 Superlights was launched in 1993, it was fitted with fully floating cast-iron brake discs, upgraded forks, upswept pipes, Marvic composite wheels, a sprinkling of carbon fibre here and there, with white panels for the racing numbers, plus the all-important numbered plaque on the headstock! Mk1 Superlights were the only ones with split rim Marvic wheels none were fitted to later series. All other series were limited runs of 500, however, only the MkV series had a very limited run of 309.

On offer is a 1997 Ducati MkV 900 Superlight, purchased by the current owner approximately 10 years ago to form part of his collection of motorcycles. This Superlight is in very good original condition for its age and showing just c.10,056 miles from new. There is a good service history record and many invoices for parts and service work carried out since its first registration. This Ducati 900 Superlight has not been used in recent years and will require some degree of recommissioning before it is placed back on the road. It is offered with a V5C, service receipts, handbooks, a service book with 5 stamps, two sets of keys and a host of old MOT certificates.
