Title: Funny, with an eBay name like "Corse Desmo" you'd hope they knew something...

I present for your amusement a set of Jugs and Cylinders for a "1999 M900" - with only 60mi on them! These cylinders and pistons come from the ultra-rare water cooled 1999 Monster 900 which would in no way resemble a regular 1999 Monster 900.

I thought about replying to his auction just to see if he realized there was a mix up, but then thought it might just be a scam.

No idea what's up with his ad but he def. knew his stuff, he had his own warehouse full of some of the nicest Ducati hardware I've seen.

Post by: junior varsity on November 05, 2009, 06:03:41 PM The seller messaged me (I thought I'd be nice and let him know that those were not 900 jugs) and the response was :
Thanks for the catch, they are 748 jugs with only 200 miles. ??? Title: Re: Funny, with an eBay name like "Corse Desmo" you'd hope they knew something...

Uhhhh, those are still 2 valve pistons, no? Title: Re: Funny, with an eBay name like "Corse Desmo" you'd hope they knew something... Post by: TAftonomos on November 05, 2009, 06:10:35 PM Pretty sure the Radical pictured above is using a ST based motor (2 or 3). Don't know why you'ld use a water cooled 2V ? Do build built 900 motors run hot on the track?
Ducati ERV is a good dude, and has some sick sick stuff (MV Ago and others) Title: Re: Funny, with an eBay name like "Corse Desmo" you'd hope they knew something... Post by: junior varsity on November 05, 2009, 06:13:52 PM Uhhhh, those are still 2 valve pistons, no? I thought so, but gave up on this. Methinks its just some lackey throwin' up the eBay ads, whether or not the actual seller knows their stuff or not. Title: Re: Funny, with an eBay name like "Corse Desmo" you'd hope they knew something... Post by: TAftonomos on November 05, 2009, 06:17:33 PM Scanning through a few more of his ads, I see the S4R motor I sold him. Actually he bought the entire bike, broken frame, and all....for less than he wants for the motor.
I suppose that might be why he's got a MV Ago LOL.... edit...just got an email from him. He was in a rush taking pics and it should be cleared up soon. Has a set of jugs/piston from a 900 and from a 748. He buys cheap and sells high, but if you can afford to hang onto the inventory until someone buys it, more power to ya! |
