350 Sebring

Just had to show the world. Some might think its the ugliest Ducati ever and I must admit that I felt the same, but then I rode it. Hell, its a ducati after all, need I say more .
First registered in 1971 in the Isle of Man, I think its a 66 or 67 model. I believe it was one of the 3500 brought into UK from USA by Bill Hannah in Liverpool. It came back UK a few (10 ??) years ago and was "cleaned up", it has a 30mm Amal Concentric but is otherwise original even down to the tyres. Actually to complicate things I have just brought it to Ireland. Its done more miles in transit than actually ridden. The mileage is 3,400 miles, and still has the tyre pump, I rode, I loved it.


Must explain this is a lifes dream to have a 350 single, I am not disappointed.

Well, its styling is dated, but still quite lovely in its way.
Interesting that the 250 version ("Monza") was selling in Sydney Australia for less than the cost of a Honda CB250, when they were both new.
Would you swap for the Honda now?

Very, very nice. You found a great example. I've been using a Sebring for daily transportation on and off for the past 15 years and will say without embarrasment that it is one of my favorite all time motorcycles. The addition of a 28mm Mikuni and a 2" longer intake tract made a huge difference in performance. I also uprated to 12V (A Triumph Lucas coil fits the standard Duc coil bracket.)
Mine has 18,000 miles, lower end has never been apart, clutch is original and she is a joy to ride. Alas, if only mine looked as sweet as yours. On mine, every chromed surface is comprehensively rusted, but I keep the oil clean and she runs like a champ.
Do take care of all that pretty chrome, it's not very thick!
