One time you bought it, you were a dealer?

No, tho first time i bought it i worked as a wrench for Ducati dealer.

Well, I was in the ballpark, as they say.

In have also bought back a bike I've previously owned. I think one should beware of high expectations ... but I hope it works out well. All the best.

Sounds to me like it got repo'd the first time!

OK heres the condensed version. First bought from Yuppie who bought as status symbol,stored in parking garage two years then brought to dealership where i worked,wanted to put on consingment after restoring to former beauty. Sold to collector in '94,at GREAT profit. Close friend Jhiestand, stationed in Japan said would like 907 to go along with his all carbon fiber 998. Called collector who had put 600 miles on in 11 years,agreed to sell.Jeff sent me funds,bought for him and kept here for over a year,replaced fork tubes
[which was my original reason for selling] cam belts,tires,full tuneup. Of course had to give many test rides,which reinforced that i had made bad decision to sell originally.Delivered to Jeff in June with just over 3000 miles.
Circumstances dictated his need to thin out his sweet collection. Both Ducs had to go. Bought third time.
By the way,not my first Duc, but for this period in my life,best.
888 SP3-the real one of 6 brought to states
750 F1 Laguna seca
Superlight
Way back when,raced 250
I'm 66 years old,Duc won't be for sale for sometime to come!

Good reading! Especially to find there's someone older than me on here ...

And I withdraw that caution about 'high expectations' - you obviously know very well what you are doing.

Yeah,i'm trying to make the Guiness book of world records for the oldest fogie riding the lowest mile 907.
Seriously, i call this the ultimate"Gentelmans Express". [anybody like to buy a really,really nice 1985 Yamaha FZ750 with upgraded wheels,brakes and suspension?] '

Interesting story, just proves that once you get "Paso" in your blood you can't get it out
