Seat Cover Needed
The seat cover on my 350 GTV is a bit ratty and needs to be replaced. Has anyone found a cover out there or do I have to get one made up special??

Been looking at making a side stand but the way that the exhaust is mounted and the way the engine is mounted has made the a real challenge. I have gathered some old ducati sidestands and none of them will work. I have an extra frame with a center stand attached to it and I'm thinking of just having...

Anyone ever sees a side stand on a Sport Desmo? I could really use one on mine as the centre stand is a real heave. Chris No kidding!!! If I could figure out what it's supposed to look like and mount I will have one made up at a local machine shop. I may buy the one on-line and see if I can adapt i...

Side Stand?
I have 350 and a 500 along with an extra frame and NONE of them have side stands. It does show one in the parts list. Does anyone out there have one on their bike? Have one for sale? Pics?

I have no direct exp with pulling this specific gear but heat with a propane torch or heat gun on the hub, making sure to not heat the shaft will usually make things come apart easier. The gear will grow as it's heated and there will be poor heat transfer to the shaft for about 5 minues or so. You n...

A buddy of mine had them in the back of his garage. I'm project addicted and a sucker for any kind of oddball Duc. I really like the looks of the 350 and will get it on the road for my daughter to ride on instead of the Honda 550SS that she has been learning to ride on. The Sport 500 I may just clea...

Some Par Twins in the barn!
Hello all! I have just picked up 350 GTV and a 500 Desmo this weekend along with 3 spare engines and a frame with some bits hanging off of it. The 350 looks good and the 500 is a bit of a rat. Both bikes are quite complete (as you can see in the pictures) and I will try to get the 350 road ready for...
