It has a hotter race cam, higher-compression piston, new valves, etc. The fuel tank is originally off a Suzuki A100 (Gofer), the seat base is from VanTech, and the front fairing is from XMT Moto.

    My first "street legal" bike was an early sixties Ducati 250, back in the mid-seventies. This video brings back fond memories of many long miles on that bike. What a beautiful restoration. Thanks so much!

      My first "street legal" bike was an early 60's Ducati Diana 250 cc...in the early 60's. Didn't know or care then, but I guess I was a trend setter for future sport bikes...big gas tanks, clip on and such. It was a great bike, wish I still had it...

    So beutiful I would swap my wife for that. Back in the 80s I had a Desmo 900 great to ride Hell in the garage, they were hand made. Shims everywhere and you shim to zero just to do the valves. I hankered after the 450 single, but they are so rare and probably a pig to start. A quick 350 is SO much fun to ride I know as I have a concours RD350LC in the garage.

    In Jr High a friend had a 350, probably a scrambler. I was mesmerized at the beauty of the thing.

    • @TheMightyGarage

    It would look great in my Lounge ! Many-hours have gone into that bike , my 11-1 92-mm-stroke SR500 was a work-out to start unless you used the same procedure as a Manx-Norton single , then one 'Manly' kick would make her roar . Great to see you guys getting-up to more bike-mischief , what a lovely-setting to live in . Dave nz

    Absolutely wonderful machine. Love the colour scheme. That kick-start routine provides many memories of my 450 Desmo. Get the technique right no problem Get it wrong be prepared for exercise! Yet, once mine was hot it was a doddle to start.

    @bsimpson6204 11 дней назад +1

    I had a 250 Desmo, it was tricky to start because it had tons of compression, the starter was very awkwardly on the left and it could kick back viciously, but, it would start first kick if you got it right.

    My brother had a Ducati 350, I’ll have to ask him what the exact model was but it was a 70’s bike. Not the easiest to start ! 🇬🇧

  • @rustyrims05

    It’s easier to bump start the little buggers. It’s a fragile kick start mechanism so you may as well practice bump starts.😂

    • @TheMightyGarage
      @TheMightyGarage  10 дней назад

      Thanks a lot. Yes, the guys were bumped starting it down that hill a few times and it seemed to start very easily. Best wishes, Mike

    Ducatiは正常なエンジンコンディションであればアクセルグリップは
    キックが下におろし終わる寸前に徐々に開き始めるのがベストです。
