would depend on the mileage which I didn't notice got mentioned.
If it is well documented and maintained it is not too unreasonable of a price for the UK from my experience.

the paint job is not original :shock:
at one stage this bike has had the original paint and decals removed and a new skeme applied,
I personally dont like it, but the price is good :dunno:
Cheers Claude.

I`ve seen that bike before. There`s an article on a UK website featuring this bike.
Of course now that I`m looking for it I can`t find it :banghead:

According to the article the bike was in an accident and was repaired after being classed as an insurance write off. I have no experience of this kind of thing but surely this should affect the future value, even after a competent repair and a number if years. This, together with an incomplete service history makes a starting price for bids of £1650 look a bit steep. Or is this a wrong assumption? Does anyone know if a repaired write off cost has an adverse effect on the cost of insurance?

To be fair most bikes of that age will have been dwon the road in some description and also keep in mind that those fairing panels have been unobtainable from Ducati for many years so any accident requiring panel repair would make it an automatic right off !

I'd say its at least £500 overpriced for me
