On any Sunday

Hi people,
I struggled as to which section to post this question in, so apologies if its not in the right one.
My question is, do any Ducatis feature in the above film ?

Thanks,
John.

RT 450 paint colours

Hi all,

my first question in my quest to restore this bike.

Can anyone tell me the correct colour for the frame, tank and panels please ?

Next question, are side panels and seat covers available, and if so where from ?

Many thanks,
John.

I also have a number of other bikes of varying makes and ages, but my reason for joining here is my recent purchase of a 1971 ...
