1990 Ducati 851/888 Pro Italia Motors Superbike
Vehicle Description
Many of you in the San Francisco Bay Area are going to be surprised to see this bike being sold. Yes, this is Wayne’s bike that he bought new and purchased the 1000 foot shop extension at Pro Italia by using their service and parts department. I asked Wayne for a list of what he had done to the bike and he sent the following compilation:

I just picked the bike from Hansen’s BMW Ducati in Medford, Or where they completed over $1500 of service on the bike. The bike needs nothing but more gas. It is currently titled in California if that is a concern to your titling issues. Besides being incredibly beautiful, it has some very rare and historic parts bolted to it. If you want more detail, I will e-mail the images directly. The bike is available for inspection 9-5, Monday through Saturday at Automania, 895 SE Gladiola Drive, Grants Pass, OR 97528.
