I'd actually be very keen to own a MHR although I'd like the later Mille engine model

I've already owned a bevel drive Ducati (Darmah) and I'd have another tomorrow if I could afford it
And as much as I like the 900SS the MHR does it for me

errrrrrrrr I did, there were also pics of an SS posted in the thread, the MHR in the link is a 900 and if I was getting a 900 I'd just go for another Darmah

I've a very fond memory of driving a car from Dunedin to Nelson in the mid-nineties for a sporting trip. As some point we got bogged down in the twisties and a MHR zoomed past us at warp speed.
It made quite an impression on my young self.

The technique was simple bring it to just past TDC. and jump on it. Commitmentcame into it with Ironhead sportsters. When you were about to jump on it with all your weight the pawl slipped and there was no resistance. Thats why you see a lot of old farts at rallies limping .

There's something not right with the 900 though
The production plate states the month/year of manufacture so it's actually a 1980 model if it was produced 12/79
If someone has done engine work on it as he states then with a sale like this the business who did the work would be stated and not every joe can work on these
Hopefully it was worked on at V2 under Brooke Henry's watchful eye.
And as a true collectable having been owned by collectors it wouldn't need any of the work stated

The very V2 who did the crank that failed in my bike due to poor hardening on the crank pin
Although they were good enough to replace it as it was just outside warrantry it still cost quite a bit for the labour to have the job done here

And still they'd have forgotten more about bevel dukes than you've ever learnt
The Darmah as good as it was was touted as Fabio's duke for the masses
Forum whore
yeah..a bit like kick starting a T160 with 1000cc hyde fitted.
or kick starting a 500 2stroke in barefeet hehe
