Ducati Other description

A 1969 Ducati 450 Jupiter (aka Scrambler) is offered for sale. I purchase this bike from a “barn find” seller in souther CA as a complete bike. Over the past year I have made some minor clean-up and replacement of a few parts with original parts in my collection. I have only started and run the bike once, to ensure there where not engine or transmission issues. The bike is amazingly complete with original Ducati ignition key and Neiman steering lock keys. The bike also has chrome instrument holders, which are very rare and mostly found on MK3 450's and rarely on Jupiter. All controls, decompression, throttle, clutch and brake cables function. 


The only non original parts are repro rubber shock gators and Duro tires. The rims are the original Radaelli chrome rims and I will include another rear rim/hub which has much less rust than the rim currently on the bike. The tail light and brake light appear to work, but there seems to be an issue with the headlight - which I might sort out prior to the end of the auction. The tank is very solid and I have an extra petcock, which are hard to find and will be included in the sale. 


The bike will be sold with a bill of sale and copy of the CA registration from the PO. If you are looking for an original bike to ride, this bike would fit the bill, with some minor work. There is a you tube video of the bike running, search for 1969 Ducati Jupiter ( you will see a video for a 1970 Ducati Jupiter - which I sold several years ago).

Valentino Rossi to Ducati? Not so fast!

Thu, 05 Aug 2010

In today’s news that really isn’t news, an interview of Ducati CEO, Gabriele del Torchio, by Bruno de Prato found on Cycle World’s website on August 3rd, reveals the CEO speaking in a matter-of-fact tone about Valentino Rossi’s status as a team member on Ducati’s MotoGP effort. In the CW article, Del Torchio states that the 2010 racing season “will not bring to Ducati any crown in the sport,” but that he looks “forward to Valentino Rossi teaming up with Nicky Hayden.” “Nicky is a wonderful person and a great rider. This year, he greatly contributed to improving our Desmosedici racer.

Tough battles at Brands in the 848 Challenge

Mon, 08 Aug 2011

The unique prospect of racing on both the Indy and GP circuits at Brands Hatch meant that Round 5 of the Rapid Solicitors Ducati 848 Challenge was very much a tale of two halves. Having already raced the Indy circuit earlier in the season, the first part of the weekend was going to be reminiscent of previous rounds, while the switch to the GP circuit would favour those few who had previous race experience on the longer track. A full schedule on the opening day of the round saw Mike Edwards (MSKWorks.com) top the qualifying table to claim his first pole position of the season with a storming 48.86 sec lap, despite a low-side reminder of how slippery Druids can be in early morning free practice.

Results From Day 2 Of World Superbike Testing At Phillip Island

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

World Superbike testing at Phillip Island came to a close today, and when the dust settled, reigning champion Tom Sykes stamped his authority, setting the fastest time of the test at 1:30.239, just five thousandths shy of the outright lap record held by Carlos Checa. The time was set during the morning session of testing, though nobody was able to best Sykes for the remainder of the day. Eugene Laverty, who was fastest on day one, showed his pace was no fluke as he stayed near the top of the time sheets, ultimately finishing second behind Sykes, with a best time of 1:30.513.
