The Appeal
The Ducati 350 Mark 3 is one of the most characterful Italian singles of its era. With its wide-case engine, nimble handling, and that unmistakable thumper exhaust note, it occupies a special place in the hearts of Ducati enthusiasts and classic motorcycle collectors alike.
This example was purchased by the current owner at the Milan fair in 2002 and has since formed part of a private collection. It carries the added provenance of having been ridden in the Milano Taranto, one of Italy's celebrated classic motorcycle events. The vendor reports that the engine starts and runs well after recently being brought back to life following a period of standing, and describes the motorcycle as being in a nice, complete state. The tank does require attention, with some blisters present under the paint, and the vendor advises that an inspection would be prudent before regular road use. With nearly 25 years in single ownership and genuine Italian event history, this 350 Mark 3 presents an appealing opportunity for fans of classic Ducati singles.
