I was clickin' around the intarwebs saturday and came across this find:

It's a 1988 Ducati F3 400 which was originally available in Japan only and this one found it's way to the Phillipines.  Very cool bike IMO.  Runs and rides and he's asking $3000 US for it.  He's got papers for it too.  The Suzuki RGV front end and wheels are a nice touch...  Thoughts?!?

Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project. 

So I went solo.  -Me

It's like I keep saying:  Those who would sacrifice a free range session for a giant beer, deserve neither free range time nor a giant beer.

Belt drive actually.  I'm actually *not* going to be buying this bike as I have too many bike projects as it is...  But, I can certainly pass along the guys' email address if anyone wants!

Am I the only one who thinks it's hideous? Was the tail section made as boxlike as possible to match the square headlight? Neither of which seems to match up with the lovely flow of the rest of the bike?


It's like it was drawn by two separate people, who weren't allowed to communicate, then meshed together with no chance for a redraw.
