"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Ducati with different badging? License-built? A completely different brand that also produced a bevel-drive 350 single?

Found the answer. Google is my friend.

"Despite the fact that it says Condor on the motor, it is a Ducati, the Swiss Army would only buy Swiss machines, Condor were the only Swiss manufacturer, they couldn't build enough of the right type, so they got Ducati to build them for them and re-badge them as Condors."

Is it Italian though?  The Motorcycle Classics article about the Condor A350 is a good read.  The frame is Swiss-made by Condor.  The engines for these bikes were probably made by Mototrans in Spain under liscence from Ducati.  A pretty cool tidbit is that it has a rubbermounted engine similar to a Harley Dyna or Norton Commando.

Yes I did, just found it.  It was a for sale ad though so the picture link is broken
