The Appeal
The letters 'FE' denoted the Final Edition of the Ducati 900SS, marking the end of an era for the air-cooled, carburetted supersport twin. With its trellis frame, desmodromic V-twin and dry clutch, it's a veritable greatest hits album of Ducati's sporting heritage.
This 1998 example has been kept in largely original condition, with only upgraded mirrors and revised rear indicators departing from standard specification. It has benefited from significant recent mechanical attention by a Ducati specialist, and the vendor states the engine starts instantly and runs well, describing the bike as a delight to ride with fantastic handling.
With approximately 200 miles since its recent specialist service and a long MOT with no advisories, this 900SS FE is reportedly ready to enjoy.
