Beschreibung
a classic Italian adventure/ touring bike fitted with the Ducati 750SS engine makes a surprisingly capable touring bike.
I have owned this Elefant for 2 years, bought as a replacement run around whilst my other Elefant was undergoing restoration.
the bike is in reasonably good condition, plastics are not broken or cracked, paint is quite good, obviously with a few marks here and there, but deep blue metallic with a gloss finish. the engine cases and lower metal items have surface corrosion
the engine is really good on this bike, it runs smoothly with no smoke or rattles, uses no oil, and is a lovely responsive Ducati powerplant that makes this a great bike to ride. 5 speed gearbox is smooth and easy to ride
bike had a full overhaul with new cam belts, brake pads, oil filter when I bought it, and has done less than 750 miles in my ownership
new battery just fitted and 12 months MOT
the brake and clutch levers ( Brembo ), have a bit of oxidisation under the lacquer, and the foam dash panel has some cracks due to sun exposure.
lowered seat design
Overall a bargain entry into classic adventure bike ownership
