    Those are nice bikes -- injected starting that year I think? I have a '96 carb'd model.

    Always the question of service -- when belts were replaced and valves adjusted. I'd say look at other listings on CR and FB ... might lead you to ask $2500 more or less depending on belts and valves and depending on how fast you want ot sell it. (Figure $800 for full service on a Duc, or DIY.)

    ... but more to the point, how much for the RD200?

    SS Ducatis are worth less than they should be. $2500 is about accurate for a sale price. Might start at $3000 to advertise.

    Right, start at $3K -- belts done, you said that in the first post. Has DP exhaust ... . These bikes are a joy to ride, look good, too.

    The original mirrors are long gone on mine, so I went with Bikemaster bar end mirrors, they work great and look good IME.

    Sorry to hear about your back problem.

    SS Ducatis are a joy to ride, relatively easy to maintain and dead fucking reliable. God only knows why they fetch so little used.

    This is why they should be expensive as hell and rarely available:

    Sorry to hear about your health issues - really a bikers worst nightmare IMO. What color is the RD?

    Not the Forum Police (defunded!) but forum rules state you must name a price. Get creative....

    Scroll up -- $2500 for the DUC for NESRians.

    The RD200 hasn't been posted yet, I just started whipping up a frenzy of interest, I guess the price will go up and up and ...

    Thanks for all the input!

    I think I’d be willing to trade the Ducati for a decent 4x4 ATV.

    Depending on condition somewhere between $2500 and $3500 in value.

    Thanks for your consideration.
