907ie for sale UK

Post by Derek »

I'm getting older now and need to think about reducing my number of bikes. So reluctantly I have decided to sell my Ducati 907ie which I have owned for the last 10 years.

The bike was registered in March 1994, although the last 907's were built in 1992, so must have sat in a dealers for a year or so before being sold. The first owner sold to the next owner in October 1997 who owned the bike until I bought on November 2011.

The bike is in immaculate virtually original condition with just under 34,000 miles and a MoT’d until May 2022. It is newly serviced with new belts just fitted. New front brake pads and battery were fitted within the last year and have covered less than 1,000 miles and a a new starter the previous year, less than 2,000 miles ago. Rear tyre has done about 2,000 miles although the front has done about 4,000.

It is currently fitted with genuine Conti silencers which sound fantastic and were a period option at the time, the OEM silencers are in good contain and will be supplied with the bike. It is also fitted with Oxford heated grips and an Oberon clutch slave cylinder and braided brake lines front and back.

In my time with it I have replaced the original voltage regulator with a Shindengen Mosfet and modified the wiring with a relay to take the current that previously went through the ignition switch. This was a common problem causing a significant voltage drop which would make the lights go dim/bright in time with the indicators and could affect the starting.

The fairing and side panels were professional repainted 4 years and 2,000 miles and are in very good condition with only a couple of tiny marks on the LH panel and mirror where I foolishly dropped it when removing it! All the rest of the paintwork; tank and side panels are original and unmarked. The bike won “Best Modern Classic” award at the 2014 Classic Bike show at Lanark and is probably one of the best examples in the UK.

Asking price is £3,500. Contact me for more pictures and information

I must admit I'm kind of shocked. I didn't expect this anytime soon. Most guys who sold their 907IE regretted it in the following years. Considering an age-argument you'd probably better off selling the 939 instead. I doubt its sitting position is as comfy.

The 939 is actually a lot more comfortable. The handlebars/seat/footrests provide much better ergonomics with the footrests lower and better placed. It is also a good deal lighter, not to mention faster with better handling and brakes.

Interesting. Better handling I can understand, afterall it's a much newer bike. Being a sportsbike I would have assumed the ergonomics to be less good. In that case I'm sure the 907IE will make someone else very happy.

The bike is now sold and has gone to an enthusiast in Cambridgeshire.

And I've just bought a 1949 BSA B32 :)
