Hi Harn'e, I am following this rebuild with interest as I own a 1975 750SS myself which is an older restoration going back to the late 1980's. Fortunately my bike has all the correct original items although like most bevel lunatics I have hoarded many additional spare parts as well over the last 30 years, cant have enough 4777's and Conti's right? Having recently turned 58, I am at a crossroads as to restoring the bike to concourse condition and simply admiring it or selling it on to be ridden and enjoyed as I have in the past. I have a few other very early bevels which are more suitable for my aged body like my 1971 sand-cast GT which will still bring enjoyment. Anyway, enough blah blah blah from me, I have been enjoying your videos and look forward to the coming series on the 1975 750SS restoration. All the best, John form Australia.
Great to see this. My 75 750 was in similar condition. Also had the flat seat rails added. Mine had an NCR seat unit with the rear hoop bent up, I had to repair this. Perhaps this bike had something similar? Looking forward to seeing the stepped cylinder barrel.
ok - while finding myself immensely impressed with your fabulous presentations I must say this - you've taken a grinder to the frame with the carburettor throats / intake exposed = gawd!
Thanks again, you do great content. Can't guess at how you could improve things except to maybe include your father so that the chat is more relaxed, even if you have to translate for us.
Love the channel. Content is amazing, the skill, knowledge and experience really shows. It's great to see this level of work on rare machines....keep up the great work
Geweldige content heren. Dit zo blijven doen dan nemen de kijkers zeker weten toe. Mocht ik nog eens wat onderdelen zoeken weet ik jullie ook te vinden. SCHITTEREND 🤩
Nice to see how you are managing such a projekt....and to see how things going on...thanks for sharing it!! one comment from me: even if you overhaul the carburetors, please cover them when you are sanding with the flex, also the motorbikes next door on the stage, that hurts my soul :-)))
Just a small detail. I had a 750GTaround 1972. You folks probably know Colin Seeley designed the frame. Well my bike did not have rear pegs, so I was trying to match the thread as metric. NO LUCK. Then I saw 2 of them racing in California. They had taked the rear pegs off. So I asked them is they would sell the pegs. NO! was the answer. I said I canèt match the thread, they told me, it is 5.8, B.S.W. Can you imagine that on an Italian bikeÉÉÉÉ

I would love to see more single cylinder content and restorations.
Nice video, love getting the history lessons
Keep doing what you're doing.
That green bike behind the 750 looks like it will be gorgeous. Love the pipes.
Cracking video's. Nice to see a quality workshop doing quality work and keeping the these beautiful Ducati's on the road.
Everything looks great. If you have the time to do it, videos on the history of Ducati would be an interesting addition the channel.

Well, they will be taken apart and cleaned anyway before we completely rebuild the carburettor...

Great content! Thank you
Very nice. I like to see the little details that makes a bike truly original. Looking forward to thex next episode. I hope to see them more often.
I am going to watch this with great interest as I owned a 1976 900ss. You are right though, some ham fisted mechanic sure made a mess of this one.

I agree, not good workshop practice, even if you are going to be rebuilding the engine
