Two historic MotoGP Ducati bikes are now listed for sale.
Casey Stoner’s MotoGP title-winning Ducati is currently up for auction at Iconic Auctioneers, with a price tag of £413,000. This extraordinary bike, known as the GP7, boasts a remarkable maximum speed of at least 190mph, thanks to its powerful 799cc, 90-degree V4, desmodromic DOHC engine.
Stoner’s bike is in excellent running order and has been meticulously maintained by an experienced technician over the years. It is a monument to the 2007 season, where Stoner emerged victorious in the premier class, edging out fierce competitors Dani Pedrosa and Valentino Rossi. Not only did Stoner achieve personal triumph, but Ducati also secured the constructors’ title, surpassing Honda and Yamaha.
However, although Stoner’s 2007 victory marked a moment of glory, it also marked the beginning of a challenging era for Ducati. The Italian manufacturer experienced a difficult period following this win, enduring 15 long years until they were able to reclaim the pinnacle of MotoGP success. It was only in 2022, with Francesco Bagnaia’s victory, that Ducati would once again reach the summit of the sport.
Now, this incredible piece of MotoGP history, Stoner’s championship-winning Ducati, is up for grabs to passionate collectors and enthusiasts alike in this exclusive auction.
ANOTHER DUCATI MOTOGP BIKE IS AVAILABLE FOR ACQUISITION
Iconic Auctioneers is offering Loris Capirossi’s 2003 Ducati for auction, presenting a chance to own a significant piece of MotoGP history for £295,000.
This GP3 marked Ducati’s debut in MotoGP back in 2003, featuring a powerful 989cc 90-degree V4 desmodromic DOHC engine capable of exceeding 200mph.
Capirossi piloted this bike to a commendable fourth-place finish in the 2003 MotoGP season. Additionally, Ducati secured third place in the constructors’ standings, making this Ducati GP3 an iconic machine from that era.
