"Looking to sell my 2005 Ducati Supermono in pristine condition. I've taken care of my "baby" and this bike is in excellent condition. I'm in the market for a new Superbike 899 and looking to make some money of this used baby. I'm asking $6300 but willing to go as low as $4800 or OBO. I live in Adams Morgan and have driven this bike to my job in Georgetown for the last 8 years ONLY during the Spring and Summer months with the occasional country road ride."

Willing to sell 1500$ less or best offer? Confusing.

Ridden it to work in DC traffic? The one time I was on the track with a SuperMono it would overheat if idling more than a few minutes, since it's a race bike. Also, since it was sold as a production racer it sold with NO lights, NO sidestand, etc.

Still, if this really is a SuperMono it would be a bad-ass thing to own. If you like old Ducati junk I mean.

I'm sure it's a scam - but I emailed the seller just for funzies.

Sure to be a scam - but at least it's an interesting one. Not a Gixer 600 for dirt cheap like the usual ones

Maybe his thought was "If you're dumb enough to buy the idea that I rode a Supermono to work for 8 years, you deserve to get ripped off!"

It has now been flagged for removal, so the gig is up....

Rats. And I really wanted a SuperMono for a couple of grand.

Oh and look! Here's where the pic in the ad was stolen from: http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C338591

This guy wanted a little more than the CL ad.

He does say "Trade-in to be considered." Since he is into classic single-cylinder motorcycles, I wonder if he'd take my 1971 Honda SL100 in trade. It is also red and was running great when garaged in 1992.
