Asking 3500 or best offer, maybe trade. The bike is located in Bakersfield Ca. 93309

Thailand Bath's??? Russian rubbls??? Location??? !!!!!!!!

The bike is located in Bakersfield Ca. 93309 and I can help with shipping. I just had the seat redone and the rear back rest also. New grips, battery, front fork seals, tune up, clutch master and chain.

I have got very little (NONE) response to my 750 sport, am I asking too much, is it just an unwanted dinosaur?

Well, lets see;
1. maybe only 400 made it to the states at a time when Ducati didn't have much of name. This was their 'entry' model. so, not many people even know it exists. Not exactly collectable, at least not yet.
2. $5k is bit high. If you get lucky, you will sell it for $3k. You can pick up a 900ss for $3k. (bigger motor, better forks, better brakes, 17" wheels, lots of spare parts, etc.) There's been another one on the local SF Craigslist for $3.5k for about 2 months, and I know of third for sale for 4 months now. If I had $3k, and the space, I would by the 907 in Denver. (see the other ads in this space)
3. Not many collector dollars out there right now.
4. Its cold, raining, and Christmas. Bad month to sell a bike, and January and February may not be much better. (good month to buy a bike though)

The economy, weather, and the jones to go riding will all be better in the Spring, if you can wait.
Nice bike, but a tough sell.
But then again, you only need one buyer.

Hmm, 1990 851, or a 1990 Sport?

tough market. this ones been for sale for 2 months now.

Cheers,

Well I guess the market just dos'nt support my need to sell the bike so I will consider parting it out. I know it sounds harsh but it is what it is. Any interested people feel free to email me and we can go from there. Until most of the parts are SOLD I wont be pulling it apart in the hope that it finds a home complete. I will take 3500 bucks firm and not a penny less, well maybe a penny. I just bought new tires for it, I might be able to take them back though.

Not going to get much for parting out either.
wheels and forks you will have to give away.
Motor is not sought after, especially with the funny clutch.
The Sport body work is rare, but you only have 200 potential customers in the country.
Worth more as a whole bike later in the year.

Cheers,

Over here in Europe these can go for £1200 to £1900 ($1920 to $3040 approx exchange rates) for a nice clean example with a certified history (and history is paramount) spares wise quite a lot of stateside items although reasonable as spares on prices have now become ludicrous for postage ( a bit like England to Finland has been been for the last few years).

It is a lovely looking machine in one piece and sadly like all things beautiful it is in the eye of the beholder, price wise you know what you paid for it and what you have spent on it so as an investment maybe another option is to swap or exchange it for something more to your liking and that which you may then re-sell at a profit?

Be happy you are not selling that Buell beside it! Over here brand spanking new they are fetching less than $8500 and the second hand knock on value is being felt too. If it's trick and special and old you might get a better premium but never your money back.

The Buell is a 1998 S1W with a 1250cc kit, 42mm mikuni carb, Aerocharger turbo, PM wheels, polished aluminum swingarm, andrews cams and a ton of other stuff. NOT FOR SALE.
