How many Ducati 999 S motorcycles are left?

At the end of 2026 Q1, DfT recorded 30 licensed and 210 SORN vehicles in the UK within the Ducati 999 S generic-model group.

Looking at a 999 S?

Population figures cannot tell you whether one particular car is taxed, MOT-valid or safe to buy.

Check its registration free for the official tax, MOT and mileage record. If the car is still worth pursuing, the optional £9.99 full history check adds outstanding-finance, stolen and insurance write-off checks.

Wondering whether one particular 999 S is off the road? A free SORN check shows whether it is currently SORN, taxed or untaxed.

Is the 999 S disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 150 in 2014 Q3 and stand at 30 in 2026 Q1, down 80%. That is down 51% in the five years since 2021 Q1.

A falling population is worth knowing before you buy: it usually means fewer donor cars, fewer specialists and slower parts supply, and it is why a good example of a scarce model can hold its price while a neglected one is hard to sell at any price.
