S4R search

11-08-2018, 05:48 PM

Hello, I have previously owned a 1997 900SS, a 916 & two 996's but have been bike less for around 5 years due to life getting in the way. I now have an itch for a Monster S4 R. In a perfect world (if such a thing exists) it would be in blue with white stripes and Termi exhausts but would consider other combos. I'm based in Suffolk and have cash burning a hole in my pocket. Anyone have one they are not riding or know of one, I would be happy to hear from you.
Safe riding and best regards
Gavin

Have you had a look at what Carl Harrison has in stock (Harleston)?
And also Village Motorcycles at Stowmarket have some very nice bikes in.

...Hello and welcome by the way...

Best of luck with the search.....oh and welcome aboard.
Keep an eye on the forum, Norfolk and Suffolk have regular meets.

I saw this one the other day (in Plymouth):

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ducati-Mo...e/263830219962

So they are out there.

I always liked the blue and white scheme - very Shelby Cobra! When I bought my S2R new, I was disappointed to find that they weren't carrying the blue over from the S4R so I had to settle for plain old red.

This thread has one. It needs a bit of TLC. Still if the S4R are worth £5K then you would have £3K to use to make it perfect...

Painting a tank, tail & nose fairing is £350 or less including decals, wheel painting is £100 for a pair, a refurbed seat £120, Maxton forks £500ish, major service £1100. Plus it might be a fun project for the winter!

Inccidently I don't know the guy or the bike in question but simply thought it might be of interest to you

I've just noticed a 2004 blue S4R in this month's Practical Sportsbikes small ads.

It's the one I flagged up earlier on eBay from Plymouth. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ducati-Mo...e/263830219962

Looks like it didn't sell at the original eBay price of £5,250 and is now being offered for £4,500. Could be worth making a cheeky offer...

Hi,
Perhaps you are already sorted - but if not - I have one. Blue/white stripes/7200 miles.

I’d PM Chris Yeatman, he never rides his. ��
