SUMMARY
Freshly rebuilt 2007 MotoGP GP7 Desmosedici race bike.
DESCRIPTION
- 2007 saw Casey Stoner win the MotoGP Championship for the Marlboro Ducati factory team
- 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° 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
- Featuring a tubular steel, trellis-style frame with a pressed aluminium swing arm with Ohlins front and rear fully adjustable suspension
- Fitted with powerful Brembo four-piston calipers with 305mm carbon discs on the front and a Brembo single two-piston caliper on the rear with 220mm steel disc
- 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
- Fitted with carbon fibre front discs for display purposes only
- 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
- This example has been recently rebuilt by Ducati expert Dave Allenby and is presented in good running order
- All Corsa parts purchased from Target Motorsport
- Believed to be one of only a few examples built by Ducati for the 2007 season
- A very usable example with spares readily available, unlike many other exotics and eligible for numerous classic events worldwide
- Part of a private Collection for many years until being purchased by our vendor in 2020
- An incredible opportunity to own a piece of Ducati and MotoGP history
