New 1969 350 mark 3 desmo owner - owner's manual question

Hi all,

Excited to join the forum here. I recently acquired a 1969 350 mark 3 desmo and am very much looking forward to learn more about this bike. Few pics attached. I'm not new to vintage bikes, having a 77 Triumph Bonneville, but in many ways the Ducati looks much simpler to maintain, much more elegant in design, and probably more fun to ride despite its small stature.

I have the workshop and parts manuals, but I'm also interested in obtaining the owners manual. I've come across an Italian copy of the 250-350-450 single cylinder owner's manual -- is anyone aware if there is an English translation floating around?

Thanks,
Neal.

Hi Neal,

Welcome! Have you looked at the 'Ducati Meccanica' web site? There is a lot of info on there, including an owner's manual for a 350 SCR, which covers a lot of your bike.

Oh great, thanks. I am still getting used to the nomenclature so wasn't sure if the manuals need to exactly include my year and model, or if similar models are "close enough".
