Ducati 450 Mark 3

It really runs

I can start using the bike again after more than 10 years. It's a great feeling. The restoration isn't over though. There are many things which need replacing:
  • The head light (somebody fell with the bike and the rim is damaged, and so is the chrome)
  • The air intake tube
  • The fuel tank needs some attention (it doesn't leak any more, I hope that stays that way, but paint is needed)
  • The saddle (I remade it during my previous restoration but the foam is too soft)
  • The instruments (they were damaged during the fire, I don't quite trust them to show the correct readings)
  • The mirror (I welded it together, and not very well)
  • The wiring (should be redone, maybe converting the whole thing to 12V electric ignition at the same time)
  • ...

​But it runs and that's enough for now!
