Hi all,
new on this forum, this is my 1991 supersport.
I actually owned this one from new; when early 1991 the first pics appeared in the magazines this "nuda" looked so gorgeous I rushed to Startwin (a well-known Ducati shop here in the Netherlands) to order one without seeing it in the flesh!
It's only mildly modified: Bos slip-on silencers with tangentiale headers; Dynojet carb-kit; SL seat; Hyperpro competition rear-shock; 916 brake and clutch pumps.
The front brakes are the latest mod: Brembo P4 34/34 calipers and wave-rotors.
I've kept all the original parts, so it can always be rebuild to standard.
In the pipeline are a pair of oval Leovince silencers and a set of Ducati-ST USD-forks.......
LOL, My 8 year old nephew actually suggested this pose! He thinks my bike is an evil monster trying to kill me! ( I think his over protective mother put that in his head)

Thankfully my brothers wife has never put idea's like that in the nephews heads. But every year I come home she asks "what the heck have you gotten into now?!" lol first the Army then VW's and racing them then motorcycles now in the Navy flying! And they go shooting with me! She's going to kill me when she finds out I willed it all to them! (ironic eh) Its good being the CRAZY uncle in the family.

The craziest uncle is always the most fun and remembered when he's gone! I have willed my M5 to him! Hopefully I can keep it running so he can enjoy it when he learns to drive! (hopefully there will gas left!)

I keep searching for some 900SP forks but I can't find any. I look and I look and still, nothing. When I find some I will put them on. I'm trying to stick with true 900SS forks here, not from another model. I don't want to have to swap everything on the front end. I'm good with my CycleCat triple and stock axle and brake mounts and such, I just want a true swap out part, like adjustable 900SP forks. I even have some nice STM red billet faucet style preload adjusters just waiting for the day.
So I did score the 99 , 900SS ! So I need a key for it , the po had lost them. I removed the ignition switch ..... there is a 4 digit number ink stamped on the bottom of the switch , could this be a key number ? Or if I made contact with Ducati can they provide a key number from the vin?
Thanks !
How annoying, I've never touched that little plug so I don't know how it loosened up. Its a M10x1.0 by about 10mm deep, looks like hardened steel. I've found a few bolts on the internet that would fit, and since today was a holiday our best commercial local nutz and boltz shop was closed so I...
I am considering buying a 1996 Supersport CR but the speedometer reads 70000 miles. The owner is replacing the clutch basket, clutch lever and left mirror. And I may do a compression test when I see it. From inspecting the bike, the frame is very clean with 0 rust but the front tire shows signs...
So, i have amassed a large amount of bevel/belt junk over my years of having ducs and have finally decided to build something out of my mess. my goal is buy as little as i can to build it, with the exception of proper safety/ running gear. i have a wrecked 860 frame, a couple 900/750ss frames in...
I have the opportunity to buy a 900ss , with low 6500 miles , has been in a low speed crash
( mostly cosmetic) for cheap cheap $$!

What’s required to replace parts to get it back to go time?
Thanks !
