The engine was professionally rebuilt in 2023 and is in running order but not suitable for track use.

• He won the Riders Championship ahead of Dani Pedrosa and Valentino Rossi, with Ducati taking the constructor's title ahead of Honda and Yamaha
• During the 2007 season, Ducati took five pole positions and 11 victories, with Stoner taking ten and Capirossi just one
• The GP7 bike featured a 799cc, 90-degree V4, desmodromic DOHC engine, with 4 valves per cylinder producing 220bhp-plus with Magneti Marelli electronic injection and ignition with EVO TCF throttle control
• Weighing 148kg and capable of speeds in excess of 190mph

• Currently fitted with 17" rims but complete with its original 16.5" wheels
• The frame designation is D16GP7 CS1 and was built for the 2007 season
• All the factory race bikes were fitted with tamper-proof metal stickers on the frame showing designation numbers
• This original frame was used in the 2007 season and still has the Spanish MotoGP scrutineering sticker attached

• The early MotoGP bikes can be maintained and run without the need for factory support so can be used for track use and classic parades
