Very unfortunate sale of my recently completed 1098R due to impending separation. I’m currently out of the country until end on Jan.
2008 Ducati 1098R, originally owned by Martin Rees of Ducati Glasgow who turned it into a track bike from new with a lot of high end aftermarket parts and track/race bodywork, more recently it was owned for a long time by a well known member of another Ducati forum. It’s a well know bike that has been ridden hard and always on track but it has had a no expense spared ownership from new. I’ve just completed a extensive restoration using lots of brand new parts from Ducati and all the original fairings/carbon/tank etc that were stored from new.
Some recent work and parts fitted:
Full engine/gearbox rebuild by Glen Searle including Pistal pistons circa £5k (have full receipt, zero miles on engine since rebuild)
Forks and shock rebuilt
New chain/sprocket
Brand new Bridgestone Battlax S22R
Fitted with Ducati Corse power kit including exhaust cams/trumpets/ecu (originals included)
Wilf at MotoRapido remap.
Full 70mm Termi system
My aim was to restore it to as per factory build spec and as far as I can remember the only non standard part is the JHP clutch cover with every new bit of carbon I bought being original Ducati Performance.
The original clutch cover is included as is the full original exhaust system, including the boxed & wrapped, never used Akrapovic titanium cans, there are also load of spare parts, brand new bolts/fixings and 2 other ECU’s.
The bike has covered 9900 miles however post it’s restoration it is all new or rebuilt, it’s road registered and I have a V5 in my name however it has never been MOT’d! (Would easily pass and will put 12 months on it).
My build thread for the bike is here:
1098r - New Project
As you can see from the thread I am pretty obsessive and have tried to make it as good as it can be, it is an exceedingly clean bike and all the fairings/tank etc have no stone chips and are pretty much immaculate.
Having looked around at what else is around and bearing in mind the condition, engine rebuild and spares/exhaust etc I am asking £19,000
Any questions please fire away.

I'll just get back into my box.
there’s a sanctimonious bizzie looking for me. You’ll give away my hiding place.
I pride myself on thinking outside of the box. 
did the buyer not go through with it?
