I just looked at the above website after seeing it on another forum and checked out 907.
6 registered, 2 in use (legally anyway). I am 1 of the ones in use, who's the other?
I was surprised only 6 exist although a mate of mine in Essex has 2 in bits that are possibly not sorned(thats stautory off road notification for anyone about to ask).
I've seen quite a few for sale on ebay.uk over the years so whats happened to those?

Hi Keith,

But the other may not be on the road.

When I just looked it said just 4 total so seems a bit strange maybe area specific? Does seem a very low amount considering it includes sorn details as well as I have seen more than that for sale with respect to 907ie for sale on ebay and Gumtree this last two years which I try and seek out. Wonder if it is because it only seeks out specific name and number on THEIR database as it totally ignores a Paso 750 search and reverts to the 906 only?

Bomber have sent you an email/pm - not sure if you are on Facebook so please ignore if you have answered there.

I think you need to tell us more ?

20 yrs with 1 owner and only 1 post on this site - you must be a very quiet man there Derek? :lol:

Would be nice to see you here http://forums.ducatipaso.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=6863

I have one fully taxed and mot'd (in Cardiff) and my brother law has one fully taxed and mot'd (in Chester) - so there are two more. We have between us an old SORN'd 907 which keeps the other two going and may be used again on the track in the future. I think that six is very low Keith - between us I know personally four 907's (three were at the gathering last Autumn).

Great way of flushing people out though!

Ride safe all.

I think it's a load of rubbish. Mine has been sorned since the start of October and will remain sorned until April. Very strange that none were registered until 1998. Mine was first registered in 1994 and has been taxed at least some of every year since. We're also apparently down to seven 851's and six 900SL's :roll:

So that site is a load of bollox then. A bit naughty really as a person could think he was buying a rare bike if he consuted it before purchasing.

Hello ducatiderek, welcome to forum. how many miles have you done? any modifications over the years?

Cheers, Keith.

I don't see how anybody other than the DVLA can confirm how many registered vehicles, cars, bikes there are in any one particular class. But what I am sure is if there are only six 907's in the UK I know 5 of them personally!!

let's see how many we can get to Lincolnshire in April - more than six would be good!!

I have a 1991 907ie that has done about 20k miles.

It is registered on the Isle of Man so would not show up in any DVLA search. As far as I am aware it is the only 907ie on the island.

I had a 906, which I gave to my brother-in-law, and I believe that is the only 906 here.

Hello Steve, that'd be the 907 you bought from Dave888 before he went to Aus then. That had the best fitting rear panels I've seen on a 907. Welcome to the forum.
Cheers, Keith.

You are indeed correct that I bought the 907 from Dave along with his 600SL Pantah which I have subsequently fully restored and returned to original specifications except changed it to MHR colours.

It has done a few closed roads "parade" laps at the Isle of Man Classic TT/MGP now and hopefully I get to do the same on the 907ie next year when it becomes 25years old.
