I bought a blue S4r and was told by the dealer that there are only 67 in the U.S. Anyone else heard similar numbers, or are they blowing smoke up my arse?

Seems about right. Not all U.S ducati shops got a Blue and White S4R. The ones that did get the Blue S4R only got 1.

My dealer has one. And they were very suprised I did not take it. I almost did. But black is classic. I figure by the time I am done it will look better then the blue. Or crumpled up in a huge ball of metal. Which ever comes first.

I got the blue one!

The blue white ones came out first and in San Diego at least 7-8 were sold. By far, they were more common than the black ones.

 

[S4_newbie]

yeah , Ducati Marin has sold a few, and has 5 more in crates

I figure the blue's are gonna sell alot more than dark.

 

[Race_Day_Dennis]

I loved the blue at first.

Seems about right.

How 'bout you DucSea, what say you? and yeah, your right about the rims, argghh.

i was sold on the blue as well, but it was the white rims
that turned me off. my 851 has white brembo wheels ....
unless you're into massive cleaning after even a short ride,
go with a different color. it looks great clean, but much
more work to maintain.

Ducati Ft Collins had a Red one and a Blue one last fall. KC International had four including two Blue (that I've seen).

I bought the blue one . Great dealership dont you think ?

I second that, the white rims got dirty quick--glad I have black ones now. Anybody want to buy my white ones ?

Sometimes you have to work for the best things in life. The occasional wash is well worth the kick a$$ look of the white rims in my opinion.

 

[troyslap]

I love the Shelby looking stripe. I would powder coat the wheels blue, with the white stripes on right side of rims proportional to the rest of the body and go titanium on the exhaust. But that's just me!!!

 

[Matt13]

Maybe for contrast you could leave em white and put a blue stripe on. How would that look?

 

[slow_M]

and grey ,red wheels,carbon solo seat also a nice looking S4r

Wanted the Blue with white stripe, but went back and it was gone( Chicago Cycle Center). Asked if they had another they said only in black. So I bought the black and love it, It's the classic color for a bike and easy to maintain. Went back for some equipment and low and behold another blue one was on the floor.
Go figure. ;D

 

[SO FUN]

Does someone know if that # of 67 imported to US is accurate? I’m buying one and am very curious as to their rarity.

I also love resurrecting old threads rather than starting a new one!

No idea if that’s accurate, but I’ve seen so many blue ones for sale over the years I have to doubt it until I get confirmation.
