Rebuilding the 1979 Ducati 900 Replica (Part 2) - Back to Classics

[@eddieselman8942]

Loved this bike when I first saw it in a bike shop in Sydney, Australia in 1986. Couldn’t resist it and gave up cigarettes to fund it. Being Australia, the powers that be always want to fiddle with everything so the front indicators had to be on stalks a la the rear ones. Not that powerful compared to similar Japanese bikes but handled beautifully and always made people smile.

Indeed the Japanese bikes of the day weren't up to Ducati when it came to handling. Enjoy your Ducati on the Aussie roads!

Oh that wonderful sound. I'am also from Australia and owned a 1976 900ss. So glad to see such a wonderful restoration coming down to OZ. Feeling very envious of the new owner.

wow, those clip ons are extreme!

[@BackToClassics]

The riding position is not too bad actually!

[@CarbonC50]

Utterly phenomenal. I had a restored Laverda Jota 180 big valve 1980 at one time. Could never decide which i preferred the look of, that or the Hailwood.

I used to keep all my copies of MCN and MCW and would have had that issue, MCW didn't go on for that long after ending early 80's I think. Sadly the pile of old papers just go too big and they were disposed of some time in the early 90's to make room for hundreds of magazines (now also all gone)

Great job! Beautiful bike.

Been there,done that, with this & many other Ducati models including Darmahs, Pantahs, 860GT. 900GTS, 900SS & of course a show quality '79 MHR in Toowoomba, Australia in 1986/87.

Goodmorning! Just wondering which company you could recommend for the black chroming of the exhaust. Thanks for the great builds and putting that on KZbin!
