Ducati 1968 Ducati 450 Desmo description
|
Extremely rare - fun and fast classic Ducati 450 Desmo wide case, set up for racing, but has lights, horn, battery etc. Bike had been actively campaigned by the previous owner. Can be run in various club race classes and should be very competitive. Excellent short track bike with big torque, solid power and stable handling. Purchased as a collectable, current owner has never raced the bike. Has been carefully stored, maintained and well looked after. Overall decent cosmetics and very good mechanical condition. Real 450 Desmo wide case engine. Numbers matching frame and engine. The engine is stock internally with factory carburettor, rated at 38 HP by Ducati. Modified oiling for improved oiling to the head .. a standard mod for racing, does not affect street rideabilty. Can be kickstarted, but like all big singles - much easier with a rear wheel spinner. Ducati racing Fiberglass tank and solo seat. Rearset pegs and clip on bars. Marzocchi Reservoir shocks. Original tach and speedo. New tires, good brakes. All the right stuff, period correct. A true cafe racer with classic style or a very fast and fun club racer for AFM etc. Sounds awesome, runs strong, handles sweet. Clean California title ... ready to go. |

Traction control? Yawn...
Tue, 10 Jan 2012My long-term Fireblade went back to Honda last week and, seeing as it’s sunny and mild outside now, I’m already missing it. It is one of the best 1000cc sports bikes out there, I don’t care what anyone else says, the way it makes its power is just perfect for fast road use. With the Power Commander 5 fitted and the fuelling sorted my 2011 Blade performed as well if not better than the 2012 version.

Radical Ducati: RAD02
Fri, 14 Jan 2011I found this Ducati on tinterweb and I love it. Its RAD02 Pursang name hardly trips off the tongue, but the bike is a thing of beauty in the eyes of this beholder. Based around a Multistrada 1100 engine, with Keihin FCR41 carbs, Ohlins front and rear suspension and the swinging arm off a Monster S2R all bolted onto a custom frame.
