It has been rumored that retired Formula One driver Michael Schumacher is selling his Desmo. It is #8, if he owns 8, who owns 1-8? After all he was and still is one of the highest paid, most successful, and most famous athletes of all time! Just a thought...

My guess is that the one that was sitting in the factory museum was #1. The others probably went to some rich friends of the company who we've never heard of.

I´m guessing Loris has the second, since he was the first to win a race on a D16. And even if Michael Schumacher is a great driver, he has no affiliation with Ducati at all.

I hope Giancarlo Falappa got one, not that i would trust him to ride it He was the first one to start doing wheelies over the finishing line.. EVER!

I thought Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt were fighting over the FIRST ONE!!!

They were fighting over the first one shipped to the states.

They were fighting over the first one shipped to the states.

they have it all wrong, if I were Tom I would say F the bike, I'll take Angelina.

 

[JasperST4]

I'd rather have the bike!

 

[Rainman]

You guys think too small.
I would take the bike AND Angelina!
And make Tom hold the video camera, while Brad washed and waxed the bike.
(I mean come on, Tom is so short, he is a human tripod)
And I would ride off into the sunset with the video in pocket.......


LOL

 

[2000 996S]

I like your thinkin.

Tom took delivery of the first model into the United States, not sure if it was numbered #1 or not, Michael Jordan took delivery of his shortly there after. This came from the dealer who deliver the bike to him

 

[SVST4]

I've seen MJ's at the shop, #17,,, I take my bike there every spring to do the valves and belts.
Kinda cool knowing that the same guy who works on my bike does MJ's desmodici!

Tom Cruise owns #1 and Brad Pitt owns #2

 

[DuckMan]

I'd rather have the bike!

It would certainly last longer

 

[snlsmith]

Which one does Jay Leno own?

 

[Matt_P]

Who cares?

 

[molasses]

I couldn't agree more, Matt_P!

Does it really matter who owns which bike?

Some people need to get on their bikes and ride more. Yes, that applies to myself also

Who cares?

 

[Ducsbk]

LOL I don't think ducati is organized enough to number bikes according to VIP's!!!

Just got back from a factory tour. They mentioned the Pitt/Cruise thing, and said the Ducati CEO (or some bigwig at the company, I don't recall) has the first one.
