Ducati 996S Hodgson Replica

It is a 2001 Ducati 996s which is one of only 35 bikes produced to commemorate Hodgson’s success at the 2001 Brands Hatch WSB championship. Built by Ducati’s factory owned UK subsidiary the motorcycle is converted from the standard 996S specification which includes conversions such as a full Termignoni system, tinted screen and Ohlin’s suspension as well and plenty of carbon fibre extras such as air box, swing arm cover, Ducati Performance air tubes, sprocket cover and number plate holder. It’s stunning orange and silver livery is identical to that of the GSE racing Ducati’s as ridden by Hodgson and Toseland. The original exhausts are still inthe box they came in.

You will see from the photographs that mine has his signature on the tank which was done when the first owner took it to Misano where he got Neil Hodgson to sign the tank.

There are two articles regarding the bike which can be found on: First ride on the Hodgson Replica 996S | MCN (motorcyclenews.com); the second can be found on: See the Hodgson rep in video action | MCN (motorcyclenews.com).

I am looking for £16,000 O.N.O, it has done 9980 miles, Dunlop tyres which have done less than 1000 miles , it had new belts prior to storage, it is on SORN. I will purchase a new battery prior to a viewing, so it can be seen running..
