Hi Alex,

I see John Fallon (similar surname to the Ducati author, but NOT related), has this one for sale in the UK. It has been restored and does look very good, BUT at £5,000, I find it expensive, even without the trans-Atlantic shipping. I guess the owner (John often acts as an agent for owners looking to sell) is trying to recover some of his restoration costs.

(Even tho' it's not a perfectly correct restoration), there are some good reference photos. Go

wow I cant get over how beautiful that 450 is. Although youre right, with transatlantic shipping which must be upwards of 1000 US dollars and a price tag of over 8500 US dollars its just too expensive....too bad I cant find one of these in new york city for 5 thousand US dollars....

maybe one day

Very nice bike, Tony - and good photos, too. Thanks. I see you're in Rochester, Tony? Ok, other side of the state, Alex, but Tony could be a man to get to know ... :-)
