FS: 1998 Derbi GPR

[Big Draggo]

For sale here is my beloved 1998 Derbi GPR
Its a 75cc liquid cooled 2-stroke 6spd sportbike made in Spain. 1998 is the first year they made this bike as well, Never sold officially here in the US but seems a fair amount were imported by various sources, Not sure how mine got here but i have a clean NH title for it. Basically a replica of Derbi's 1980s 50/80cc Gran Prix race bikes . Uses a minarelli motor similar to that in an RS50 just bigger Its pretty quick will easily do 100km/h and with a bit of space will push the speedo past 130km/h but your revs are up there. For kicks i had it run on the dyno at seacoast sport cycle and it put 8.3hp at the rear wheel. It also has set pretty much brand new tires on it.

Its a real fun bike, i love it but i bought a better commuter bike as i dont wanna beat on this bike in the city/weather and i gotta face it that i probably cant afford to build it into a small cc road racer/track bike. Im not desperate to sell it but if i can i will, otherwise itll be an onhold track bike for spring

Its got about 5000km on the clock, i changed the gearbox oil at 4800 or so with silkolene, and have run only redline racing synthetic 2t oil, ill include 7 bottles of which with the sale, 4 different sized front sprockets, and a computer copy of the factory service manual.

The only bad parts are that its missing the passenger seat/cover, the right side passenger foot peg and the expansion chamber/exhaust paint is flaking off to reveal some surface rust. I can work with one if those faults are an issue.


I'm asking $1500 obo, cash does funny things but im not desperate. lemme know if your interested and ask any questions!

I'm interested. Where's the bike?

The derbi is garaged in medford, ma right now.

[2v2Ducati]

BUMP, probably trading for Doc's YSR, but $1500 cash still possible. Exhaust has been sand blasted and repainted w/ hi-temp paint now. Working on finding a rear seat to. (not to be a dick to ya Doc but i could use $$)

[Doc]

Just got a bite on my YSR...

Do you still want to do the trade or should I sell it?

[2v2Ducati]

If you can sell it Doc go for it, I'm trying to sell the derbi still. If we both don't then Id be willing to.

[Doc]

Ok thanks. Good luck.

What kind of top speed do you get with that thing? Could you take it safely on the highway?

[2v2Ducati]

Take it on the highway, yeah i have but its only good for about 65mph or so and you are at around 10k rpms, I don't like to use it for more then hopping a few exits in the slow lane. You could play with the sprockets a bit and get some more topend but that might make riding in traffic none to fun.
