Congrats! I wouldn't part with my 40K+ mile 96 SP for twice that money. And I've got a 05 999S and a Triumph Tiger in the stable.
Amazing find, enjoy her in good health!

Me as well. As someone else posted, ride her in good health, awesome score. Mine was only a bit less money, but alot less well loved. Thus requiring more money and a great deal of effort to get it to a rideable condition.........sean

Beautiful 900 SS but FYI: The belts may look brand new but the engine did not run for long time so the sections of the belts over the cams were stressed and hence weakened.

A friend of mine gave me a set of 749 masters he still had laying around after he sold his bike (Brembo PR18 for the brake and Brembo PRSomething for the clutch) because I helped him rebuilding the roof on his house last summer.

New to the forum but long time Ducati fan / owner (996, 999, Monster Evo 1100). Have admired the Super Sport since the early 90's but never owned one- until now! Picked her up about two months ago. Advertised on CL as an original owner, 96 in “excellent” condition. Turned out to be a rough but...
