Those past few months I have been working (extremely low intensity) on a 2020 Ducati Monster 797+ that was salvaged. 3 miles on the odometer: it never left the dealership's lot.
I am almost done, still waiting for a few more pieces to come from Europe. Once all is said and done, I will have a nice 3 miles little bike to scoot around town for a solid 40% off the MSRP.

"Salvaged" ?
Looks like a lot of fun.
If I am ever on life support - Unplug me......
Then plug me back in..........
See if that works .....

The insurance company determined the bike wasn't worth repairing.

Slow day I guess, I was the sole bidder.

NOOOO had the S4rs in 2017 for a while, had the R1200s and HP2 also. The HP2 went to a collector in New Zealand Dec 2020 so only have the R1200s now.
