This might be fun, a bit of cutting and welding and a Ducati tail section could be yours...

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

If I didn't have to replace parts at the minute I would have snapped that up and tried getting it on! :thumbdown:

It's worth a look, and I've nothing else to do, so a gentle drive up to Doncaster might be in order........

It looks too good to break, really, except the high mileage means that the engine would need a complete refresh.

the more i look at this bike the more it looks iffy.
to me its a non standard colour(non standard decals), it looks like its been down on its n/s(scratches on th fairing just below the clip-on)
the engine casing on the o/s seems not to match the engine colourwise, has the engine been painted? then the engine cover replaced at some point?
then theres the indicators all 4 of them are from the older model(maybe replaced after crash)
the rear light isn't sitting correctly, suggesting at least one broke mounting point, and theres a large gap between the seat and the fairing which can be common nut normally the gap reduces as it gets closes to the tank, but this doesn't suggesting mor broken mounting points.
buyer beware on this one, its deffo had an accident hence the colour and so on........stupid thing is, i bet this still sells for nearly a grand :crazy:

You could be on to something there Seb. If you zoom in on the bottom corners, it looks a bit like they are peeling. :confused

Did you get those gaskets OK?

I think that was VTRYorks bike which he sold a while ago. If my poor old failing memory is correct.

what a nice firestorm, low mileage and lots of good mods, and its the best colour, i reckon it would be a steal at 2500......
