Inspecting the list of carefully considered tweaks will reveal why its price tag competes with those of modern Ducs.
When the internet became thing, it changed our lives in several ways, giving us the ability to perform many of our daily tasks without having to leave the comfort of our homes. For instance, diehard gearheads will certainly appreciate the presence of online auctioning platforms, which enable you to bid for your desired ride in a matter of minutes.

I mean, not having to be in a particular location at a given time is a big plus, and the popularity of these websites has only increased during the last couple of years (for obvious reasons). When it comes to pristine two- and four-wheeled machines, Bring A Trailer is arguably the mecca of online bidding across the United States.

As you scroll down the list of live auctions, you’ll stumble upon a restored 1976 Ducati 900SS that manages to look absolutely immaculate. It is up for grabs until Friday evening (June 19), but you’ll need some serious cash to get your hands on this old-school SuperSport. This bad boy is a cult classic for any self-respecting Ducatista, so it’s no wonder the current bid is placed at a hefty $35k.

In 2017, Bologna’s gem was honored with a coat of fresh paintwork to remove any signs of aging. It rolls on a pair of 18-inch laced wheels from Borrani’s catalog, enveloped in Avon RoadRider rubber on both ends. At the rear, suspension duties are taken good care of by dual Koni shocks, while the front end wears the original Marzocchi forks.

As of 2008, the bike’s 864cc L-twin powerplant has been thoroughly rebuilt using new pistons and clutch plates, as well as youthful bearings and seals. You will also find an electronic ignition module and refurbished carburetors topped with high-grade pod filters. Lastly, the vintage Duc features an upgraded five-speed transmission.

The cockpit is adorned with an array of modern accessories, such as Tommaselli clip-ons and a single bar-end mirror, among other goodies. If your wallet can handle the price tag, we urge you to visit the BaT website right away for a detailed analysis of this gorgeous 900SS!

A bit of an artist himself, Silvian sees two- and four-wheeled machines as a form of art, especially restomods and custom rides. Oh, and if you come across a cafe racer article on our website, it’s most likely his doing.
