I've joined up here as I've just acquired this for saving Obviously I've ignored the advice of not buying anything that already dismantled and it was worse than it looks here as it also came with a dismantled Monster 750 and everything was just in one big heap  Although this is my first Ducati restoration, I've have done others, but mainly 70's/80's Jap two strokes. |

Nice find and 8 years waiting for a rebuild ? At least the frame and engine have been started which is always a nice way to start. Good Luck and keep us informed. It may take a while for some of your questions to be answered but remember there is a vast vault in our search button. |

Nice project. Mine was not dismantled when I got it, but it might as well have been. If the motor is too much a pain in the ass, you can simply go with a later 900SS motor and swingarm. Gives you a 6 speed tranny and a newer clutch slave cylinder. Bolts right in. Probably pick one up for a reasonable price. The added bonus is there are a bunch more engine hop up parts available. Heck, just pick up a used 900ss that runs good and put the wheels and forks on the Sport. Sell the rest of the parts to fund the project. Here's a write up from 12 years ago on a 750 Sport with a 900ss transplant. http://www.loudbike.com/2005/02/fits.html http://www.ducati.ms/forums/539990-post64.html Always the choice with a basket case. Return to stock, or go hot rod? So many choices from where you are starting. Cheers, Phil |

I would love to put my hands on that... Nice project! The 16" tyres are not an issue, Shinko or Goldentyre offer them and I am told they are much better than the old Michelins. |
