DUCATI DARMAH SD XXX DESMO, XXXX, LESS THAN XXXX MILES FROM NEW, ONE PREVIOUS KEEPER (NEW OWNER WILL BE SECOND RECORDED KEEPER) GENUINE UK SUPPLIED BIKE (BRYANTS OF BIGGLESWADE) VERY ORIGINAL NON MOLESTED EXAMPLE WITH ALL ORIGINAL PARTS. THIS DARMAH WAS LAST TAXED AND TESTED IN XXXX!! THE MILEAGE IN XXXX ON THE MOT TEST CERTIFICATE IS RECORDED AS XXXX, IT WAS SOLD IN XXXX AND PLACED IN PRIVATE COLLECTION UNTIL IT WAS BOUGHT BY WELL KNOWN DEALER FROM STOWMARKET FROM WHOM PURCHASED IT FROM IN XXXX. BOUGHT IT 'AS IS' IN GREAT CONDITION BUT IN THE KNOWLEDGE IT HAD NOT MOVED FOR SOME CONSIDERABLE TIME! IT HAS HAD ALL BRAKE CALIPERS REBUILT COMPLETELY AND THE LINES FLUSHED, THE ORIGINAL TWO FRONT CALIPER TO SPLITTER HOSES WERE REPLACED WITH STAINLESS BRAIDED HOSES FOR SAFETY AS THE ORIGINAL BREMBO ITEMS SHOWED SIGNS OF DETERIORATION. THE BEARINGS IN BOTH WHEELS WERE REPLACED AS THEY WERE NOTCHY, THE STEERING BEARINGS WERE FINE. LUCKILY THE CARBS WERE DRAINED AS WAS THE TANK WHICH IS CORROSION FREE INSIDE AND OUT AND IN SUPERB CONDITION; THE MOTOR HAD BEEN INHIBITED.YOU WILL NOTE THE MAIN STAND IS NOT FITTED, THIS DID NOT COME WITH THE BIKE, IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE ONE WAS EVER FITTED? SIMILARLY THE KICK START IS NOT FITTED BUT IS WITH THE BIKE BUT IT DOES NOT NEED IT AS IT STARTS AS SOON AS YOU PRESS THE BUTTON. THE SUPPLYING DEALERS ORIGINAL STICKER IS STILL ON THE LEFT SIDE PANEL AND THE DEALER SUPPLIED ORIGINAL PRESSED TIN NUMBER PLATE IS ALSO STILL ON IT. THE ORIGINAL DUCATI FACTORY SEAL IS STILL WIRED IN PLACE UNDER THE CRANK CASE. COULD WAFFLE ON ABOUT HER CONDITION! PLEASE SEE THE PICS TO SAVE THOUSAND WORDS. I HAVE NO DOUBT THE MILEAGE IS ORIGINAL FROM ITS CONDITION, THE ENGINE IS AS SMOOTH AS SILK AND STARTS READILY HOT OR COLD, IT IS FITTED WITH DELLORTO XX'S BUT IDLES AND ACCELERATES VERY CLEANLY WITHOUT FUSS, THE CLUTCH IS SMOOTH, GEARS ALL SELECT WITH CLICK AND NEUTRAL IS EXACTLY WHERE IT SHOULD BE! IT DOES RIDE AND FEEL LIKE 'NEW' BIKE, NOT AT ALL TIRED, LOOSE OR CLAPPED OUT AND THE LANFRANCONI'S SOUND GREAT (THE LEFT ONE HAS SOME SMALL PITS IN THE CHROME) ALL ELECTRICS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION BUT....... HAVE NOT MOT'D IT YET FOR TWO SIMPLE REASONS, THE INDICATORS ARE NOT WORKING NOR IS THE BRAKE LIGHT, THESE WILL HOPE BE SORTED OUT IF HAVE TIME BEFORE THE NEW OWNER COLLECTS THE BIKE BUT IT MAY BE MORE REALISTIC TO ASSUME THESE TWO NIGGLES WILL NEED TO BE SORTED. HAVE BOTH KEYS FOR THE IGNITION BUT NOT THE REAR SEAT LOCK KEY (A NEW COMPLETE LOCK AND KEY SET IS APPROX ??XX) HAVE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS MANUAL AND THE SPEC' USE MAINTENANCE MANUAL AND THE TOOL KIT IS UNDER THE SEAT.
