Lightweight single-cylinder motorcycle produced by Ducati during 1974/ 1975
Powered by a 238. 6cc air-cooled, bevel-drive, SOHC single-cylinder fitted with a performance camshaft, slipper piston, 30mm carburettor, and a Lafranconi silencer to compensate for the lower capacity
Made in limited numbers for the French market to bypass a 1975 tax increase on bikes 240cc and above
Coil springs with screw and locknut tappet adjusters. Excellent double-sided front brake. Right-hand 5-speed gearbox
This example is one of the last bevel-drive singles made in period and very likely imported by Coburn and Hughes
Fitted with a new fuel tank, Dell Orto carburettor, workshop manual and complete with a small history file
Will need a new 6v battery, fresh fuel and might require some recommissioning before road use
UK-registered from new and on a current V5C
