@injunjack:

no, they ain't…

IJ…you know "irony"?...

[Seul]

Is that the thing you use to jam the car tires of a motorbike?..

[injunjack]

there's no such thing as irony when sidewalk commandoes comment on bikes over internet….

BTW use of car tires as reartires is(was) common thing to do. At least here and Sweden... That was when 150 was widest mc tire. and no 15" were available. My rearrim in my Pan was  made out of Käfer wheel...grinded the center off, pressed nipple"cups" in place drilled and laced to harley starhub.

Saw this at Goodwood Festival of Speed yesterday.  Don't care what anyone else thinks of it, it (or something very similar) is on my must have list….

You gonne need somebody, or yourself to build one.

As a quick look, that's Ironhead Sportster with flat track seat and tank.

Speaking of Ironheads, here is a bad pic of my 75'.

G - you talking bout the bike or the ass behind it?
I'd agree on both, though I'd prefer the bike

[Megatron1505]

G, the bike looks great. I've promised myself a Harley Sportster "Iron" before I'm 45…..been reduced 5 years 

GM, Your bike(s) is(are) a work(s) of art.

I want this:

[Giles]

I saw one of these in Berlin and decided I wanted one…..

This is the 450 version, though they also came in 250 and 350.

Basically made for the US market, soi I'm going to have to start looking there…..

Hey G
Which model is that I don't know Ducatis.

There is 1971 450cc Ducati Desmo for sale here in Finland.

It's veteran registered, which means it's fully restored. Asking price 7300€.

You can see it here.

It is the 450 scrambler, so you got it right.  Thanks for the link.  I think for a European bike that is a good price, but i reckon I can do better with a US bike, so I'm going to sniff around a little more and do a little more research before jumping…...

[injunjack]

sure, it's just for comparison, and to show the price-range of almost pristine machine. I think there is a bit to negotiate, but not much.
