Descrição
Very rare Ducati 450RT, a good runner with lovely patina in unrestored condition.
This bike is one of the very first batch sold in the USA in 1971 as off road machine, without road equipment.
After many years of storage it was imported to the UK 5 years ago, recommissioned and UK road registered with V5 and DOC dating certificate.
It has recently been given a thorough overhaul and desmo head set up by a recognised Ducati bevel single specialist, and the engine is reported to be in excellent condition.
It was recently featured in Classic Bike Guide magazine & has appeared in a number of shows.
I have retained it’s “straight out of the desert” look with 70’s period Mudder mudguards and torn seat, rather than restoring one of the few unrestored running RT’s. It would be a very easy task for the new owner to restore the bike to original spec, as the few parts required ( mudguards, side panels, rubbers etc) are available from Vintage Ducati. Priced sensibly as restored examples are currently being offered at significantly higher prices.
