Hi All;
Just a note to say hi to everyone. I am an expat Canadian living in New Zealand (bikers paradise).
I have just purchased my 2nd Ducati a few weeks ago to compliment my 04 800S. It is a 1980 900SD Darmah frame # 904482 that came over here from Aus in 1989 (I am the 3rd owner). I got cheap because of a noisy motor. I stripped it last weekend and found the noise to be the rear big end so am up for a big end assembly first off (ouch). It looks fairly original and will hopefully soon be back to its former glory it is Orange at present but will be restored in black and gold.I have done lots of restorations over the years (all British) but this is my first Bevel Ducati
I will undoubtedly have heaps of questions in the months to come. Thanks Steve for a great forum and I will be visiting your on line store. Here is a picture of my treasure as purchased 3 weeks ago.
Regards
Reg
