Ducati Falcon 80 description

Purchased from the son of the late US west coast importer (Euromart), along with several Ducati derelicts, around 2005. At the time, the bike didn't have a front end, exhaust, seat or tank, and I was told the engine had never been started. If true, I would assume the bike was robbed for parts back in the day, and left to sit in the warehouse I bought it from. Not very well respected, these 2-strokes, let's face it.

I had enough NOS stuff to rebuild the front end and a donor headlight from a Mountaineer (speedo shows about 1200 miles or so). NOS tank and seat were found on Ebay. NOS exhaust pipe sourced from Domiracer, used muffler was the best I had. I pulled the top end to take a look, everything is PERFECT.

Condition is 'survivor excellent'. Includes extra original purple Marelli spark plug in toolbox. Some scratches, some rust (mostly to areas of the front wheel), handlebar switch works fine but isn't perfect. Please look at the photos carefully.

Otherwise GUARANTEED to run and ride perfectly. I rode it around a few miles on completion, and it's been in my bedroom ever since. Time for another home. The bike was recently shown at the 2016 Quail Gathering to quite nice reviews.

Clear California title in my name. Yeah, I know it's a lot of money. But you will likely never find another in this condition. If she doesn't sell, I may put some fuel and fluids back in her and post a riding video. We'll see. Currently only selling to USA, that may change also, depending on interest...

I will answer questions promptly, thanks for looking.

Mamola crashes the two-seater Ducati Desmosedici

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

For years now, at every MotoGP, Ducati have taken VIP guests out on track with Randy Mamola giving them a glimpse of what a MotoGP bike can do. But as we all know: the difference between being on the edge and being over it are smaller than we'd like, especially if you've got a pillion adding another dimension of complexity to the physics you're already battling with. In short: sometimes even ex-GP winners get it wrong.

Recreate Rossi’s Corkscrew Pass on Stoner at Laguna Seca with Paper

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

Valentino Rossi‘s career is full of many incredible moments but few are as indelible as the move he made to pass Casey Stoner on the 23rd lap of the 2008 U.S. Grand Prix at Laguna Seca. The controversial cut through the famous Corkscrew was arguably the most dramatic moment of the 2008 MotoGP season (and ironically, recreated this year, with Marc Marquez turning the tables on Rossi).
