I mean an admin could move the thread to the ‘other bike’ section.

But other than, many of the long time members here have interest in this thread at this forum.

So those of us without a vested financial interest in Ducati who are still Ducati guys will likely be happy to discuss it here and not have a problem with that.

With all due respect Karl.
 
Seems like a huge hassle to get a base 2025 which you’ll then have to build up. Buying a regular SP is not only an easier route that’ll get you to 95% of your “race package” but it’ll have warranty and better resell-ability.

If you wanted a race prepped bike, I would’ve contacted Padgett’s over in the UK and see if you could import a track bike. Or Obsession Engineering and see if they could set up a package for you. Also fwiw, a lot of the winning has been done on the prev gen SC77 especially on the road racing side.

No. Everyone I know in club racing in the UK have built their Honda's from base model up, the most cheapest way to do it.
Resell-ability is not great, but you can always sell it as a race bike in the UK.

The current model is not available as a base version in the UK.
 
I got an unrestricted version of the SP for lower than the cost of the base version with about $4500 in HRC parts included…so the savings is substantial. The negative is that you can’t register it for street use so that may impact resale value by limiting the audience size at resale….but that’s offset by the fact that it’s an HRC issued bike directly from Japan which could be of more interest to a niche track bike buyer.

In any case the savings on the bike plus the HRC ECU and Loom is substantial enough to offset any resale value loss.

Hayden Gillim won in MotoAmerica on the previous iteration, but most of the BSB guys were on the 2024 bike last season.
