Production of Ducati Bevel Twins spanned 15 years, and nowadays a restored bike with original parts will be worth about double the value of one with the wrong parts/detailing.
These practical chapters cover little tricks in assembly and offer general advice rather than a detailed workshop manual-type description..
For instance, there were five fork types, more than five shock absorber types (many not rebuildable), more than five brake types and ten different frame types.
The practical chapters are by necessity broad.
The content includes colour codes, stripe widths, decal placement, etc.
So this book is a comprehensive guide to authenticity.
A would-be buyer\'s first question is always "how authentic is the bike?", not whether it is beautifully restored.
There have been so many variations over the years that most people have no idea what is correct for a particular model.
