Ducati 750SS

Post by cheb »

I like this, higher bars for comfort would be nice. No pods, no colours and sensible tyres.

K&N type airfilters. Better than nothing but they make a bike look home made. Fine on a home made bike but not on one like the above.

Love it! Plain, simple and no garish paint jobs. :thumbup: Riding position isn't for me, but that's my issue and not the bikes.

They couldn't have made it more dull if they'd painted it beige :D

With higher bars that'd do ok.

With only a token nod to a front mudguard and no rear hugger,it will be a dry day bike,unless mucho cleaning is yore thang.

I don't want anyone to stop posting this stuff, any bike content is happily opened by me - but I'm struggling to see any of these bikes that look better than they left the factory. The Ducati SS bikes are works of art as standard but this is just a mess.

I don't pay much attention to new bikes so don't know what it was converted from. New being a relative term, for me that's anything since the late 1980s.
