MotoGP, Gift idea: Stoner's 2008 Ducati for sale at 449,000 euros

You might need a particularly generous Santa Claus this year, but any miracle is possible during the holidays. Like finding the Ducati Desmosedici with which Casey Stoner raced in 2008 under the Xmas tree.

The German site Speer is selling this collector's item and, as you would expect, the price is not exactly affordable.

To take home the Australian's red bike, complete with a number one on the front fairing, you have to be willing to shell out 449,000 euros.

Not a figure for winter sales, but to have a piece of motorcycling history you can't exactly be Ebenezer Scrooge, can you? With the GP8 Stoner won 6 races in 2008, finishing the championship in 2nd place.

If you are interested, find the announcement HERE even if there is one small error: the displacement of 990 cc is marked down but that year's Desmosedici, as per regulation, had an 800 cc engine. Maybe this information will help you get a discount…
