I had the opportunity to buy a RARE Ducati last month and she arrived here in NY yesterday. Here are a few pics:

Boy I forgot about those. I remember Marsh MC in CT. had one on the floor. Now you can cruise the bars. Get some Italian leather chaps and some fringe to hang off the handle bars.

Yes, that is fairly rare. It's nice to see one that is not is such a state of dis-repair that it is better off as parts. I bet you can take that to a Ducati rally and have several people try to argue with you that it was never made by Ducati.

It's so, here in Italy the Indianas have never been too much liked.
Ciao

So what size wheels and what is the carburetor? Paso owners need to know.

Paso owners will need nothing from the Indy range!!
It has Bing carbs just like the boxer BMW's of the era. For tires, it has an 18" front and a 15" rear.

Hey Jon!
Nice addition to the family. Good luck with her. Reminds me of my first bike when I started driving/riding, a Kawi 440 LTD. The Kawi is still in the family. Put some superbike bars on it and maybe a monster fly screen and she wll be styling.
Enjoy!

Thats cool. What year is it from? Early 80s? The lines are similar to some Yamaha's from the 80s.
