Seller description

THIS IS A 1973 DUCATI 750 GT WITH A 1972 BUILD DATE AND REGISTERED AS A 1973 MODEL. I HAVE OWNED IT FOR 25 YEARS WHERE IT HAS BEEN PART OF A 20 BIKE DUCATI COLLECTION.
I HAD AN ITALIAN MOTORCYCLE RENOVATION AND RESTORATION SHOP IN NEW YORK BUT HAVE RETIRED AND RELOCATED TO TENNESSEE. SLOWLY SELLING OFF MY COLLECTION AS I PREP EACH BIKE TO BE FRESH AND ROADWORTHY.THIS GT HAS BEEN GONE THROUGH AND STARTS ON THE FIRST KICK AND QUICKLY SETTLES INTO A SMOOTH IDLE. IT HAS NEW RINGS FROM BEVEL HEAVEN ON STANDARD PISTONS WITH NEW VALVE GUIDES AND SEALS AND REBUILT 30 MM DELLORTO CARBURETORS..THIS EARLY MODEL HAD A FIBERGLASS TANK AND SIDECOVERS BUT I REPLACED TANK WITH A STEEL TANK FROM A 74 DUE TO ETHANOL FUEL WHICH ATTACKS AND SOFTENS FIBERGLASS. THE ORIGINAL TANK IS INCLUDED IN THIS SALE AS WELL AS THE EXCELLENT ORIGINAL AMAL CARBURETORS AND INTAKE MANIFOLDS AS WELL AS THE ORIGINAL AIR CLEANER BOX'S AND INTAKE HOSES.
BLACK LACQUER PAINT ON TANK AND SIDECOVERS IS RECENT AND FRAME PAINT WAS RETOUCHED.
