Just for giggles, checked current retail pricing.... This isn’t a “for sale” post, but seriously, anyone need something? Apparently prices on tha shit ain’t coming down...
Prolly 2/3 of that Edit: Considering the tail is one piece carbon fiber, it is probably about the same
We repaired a 1098 R (the 1198) a couple years ago and the prices were as high as these. The bodywork is some very nicely made CF. But dang, they are proud of it.
Some years ago (I’ve been told), it was possible to piece together an entire Polaris ATV or snowmobile for significantly less than it was to buy an assembled unit. I think that lasted until the 90’s before someone at corporate put an end to that.
Forgive my ignorance all things Pasta Monster, but which Desmo is this bodywork for? The Desmosdeci/GP replica?
That would be my guess (I have only heard of one production bike with Desmo in the name). Heaven help us if it is the prices for the bodywork of the Ducati branded bikinis!!
