Zustand: gebraucht - sehr gut, Originating from two racing engines, the belt-drive Ducati twin followed a tradition first set by Ducati in 1957 with the first overhead camshaft 175-cc single. The 1990s saw Ducati pull itself from near-oblivion to regain its spot among the world`s most prestigious motorcycle marques. The recent success of the Italian manufacturer has ensured a healthy restoration and aftermarket scene among the Ducati faithful. This hands-on guide takes owners through the process of restoring and modifying 1979 to 1999 belt-driven two-valve machines, including the 500/600/650SL, 750 F1, Paso, 750 Sport, 750SS, 900SS, and Monster. As with all guides in MBI`s Authentic Restoration Series, the emphasis is on originality. Hundreds of black-and-white photographs illustrate all the procedures explained, while detailed appendices cover specifications for all the models covered and identify sources for the restorer. The following review is from The Ducatis Unlimited Connection web site ([...] There are basically two types of Ducati riders: Those that just ride the motorcycles, and those that are also driven by a `need to know; ` who relish every savory (and occasionally unsavory) detail about these extraordinary machines. If you are the latter type this book is a must have. Although billed on its cover as an "Authentic Restoration Guide" this book is actually much more. It is a cornucopia of interesting details -- seemingly every detail! -- about the entire line of belt-drive two-valve twins from the earliest pre-production Pantahs down to the latest Monsters, STs, and fuel-injected Supersports. And, if the breadth of coverage seems amazing (and it is) even more so is the way that Ian presents it. Not just as a lengthy compendium of facts and data, but as an unfolding story of development and change. One filled with cues and, yes, the occasional miscue. Fascinating! But it`s billing as a Restoration and Modification Guide is, none-the-less, correct. Want to know the original color or decal placement on a `82 Pantah? You`ll find it here. Interested in learning recommended methods for dealing with the flat spot produced by a Paso 750`s auto-type carburetor? That is here, too. Also included -- many for the first time -- are accurate production and distribution figures for each and every model, along with charts that list factory correct tuning data, and such esotery as carburetor specifications, gear ratios, and camshaft valve timing for each model and year. Whew! Filled with scores of photographs and interesting diagrams, this is a book to read, study, and enjoy. DUC Recommended! Reihe/Serie Authentic Restoration Guide S. Zusatzinfo 300ill.
