ONCE A DUCATISTA, ALWAYS A DUCATISTA . . . . I FIRST MET DAVE, OWNER/BUILDER/RESTORER OF THIS CRACKING '72 450 DESMO, AROUND 1989/90, FIRST 110% DUC NUTTER I'D RUN INTO AT THE TIME . . . . HIS STABLE INCLUDED ALL THE SOUGHT AFTER 70's SUSPECTS AND ALL IN FINE FETTLE . . . . THEN CAME DIVORCE, THAT'S WHERE SHIT GOT UGLY . . . . SHE'D DONE THE DIRTY AND GOT BUSTED . . . . JUST TO RUB IT IN, SHE HAD HER BRIEF TAKE THE FUCKING LOT !!!!

BIKES INCLUDED IN THE PAYOFF PALAVER WERE A '72 SS, A SILVER SHOTGUN AND A LEGIT SMART REPLICA, THE SS WAS THE FIRST DUC I EVER RODE AND WOULDA BOUGHT THE JIGGER IF I HAD THE BUGS BUNNY . . . . THANKFULLY, DAVE'S ONE OF GOD'S REAL GENTS, HE REBUILT HIS LIFE AND HIS GAGGLE OF ITALO-CENTRIC EXOTICA AND IS BACK IN THE SWING OF THINGS, AND TODAY HE WAS SWINGIN OFF THIS SANO '72 BABY DESMO . . . . BOUGHT IN ROUGH BUT COMPLETE SHAPE IT'S HAD THE MAGIC WAND WAVED OVER IT BY DAVE HIMSELF, ALL PRETTY STOCK, EXCEPT THE DELIGHTFUL DESMO PORTION, SS PISTON, V2 STREET/RACE GRIND CAM AMONG OTHER HOT TOUCHES, THE 30ml DELL'ORTO PROVIDING THE PERFECT FUEL DELIVERY TOOL . . . . GREAT TO SEE AND HEAR SUCH A BEAUTIFUL WEE SCOOT AND EVEN BETTER TO SEE A GOOD BLOKE BACK IN THE GAME !!!
