Salivating.
Awesome piece of kit, especially impressed with his rocker covers. Wonder what he did with the original frame. Oh and very nice for him to have a pal able to buy containers full of any bikes let alone classic Ducati's.

rocker covers are magnesium . Kent Jorneval had some cast in India . Lacey Ducati and widecase.com are selling them .

What you see is paint, needed to prevent corrosion of magnesium castings.
It really is chasing small weight savings, but Hey - it all adds up!
Visually, it's nice that they don't have the boss for the optional valve lifter.

That would be Ian Gowanloch, Dave, who bought containers full of stuff out of Italy in the 80s and 90s when no-one wanted them.

nope ,a Dutch guy by the name of Rob Labordus bought the container with Condors .

later on a Dutch army surplus guy bought a large amount of Condors to so there are plenty Condors in the Netherlands .
