" In the peaks and troughs of Ducati model Specification, the 1978 Super Sport was an undoubted peak" ( Ian Falloon )
Selling my 1978 Ducati 750 Super Sport, this is one of the first 100 Black and Gold Bikes imported into UK as commissioned by Coburn and Hughes with the now rare colour scheme.
This bike has been recommissioned over the last two years, after being little used following a full engine rebuild by UK Ducati Specialist Paul Klatkiewicz of Ducati Technical Services in 2002.
The full receipted engine rebuild shows that virtually every component has been replaced and includes the engine cases and heads being vapour blasted. The Bike runs the original Bosch Ignition, the internal wires to the pickups in perfect condition.

A set of 40mm Dell Orto carbs and a pair of Stainless Conti Replicas by Keihan systems are also included.
Rear Shocks are adjustable IKON units.
Nuts and bolts are all Stainless.
The bike has had it's original dangerous Speedline wheels replaced by FPS items.

The bike comes with an extensive history folder including all the engine work done, Original Ducati handbook included. Happy to answer any genuine questions or offers from serious purchasers.
Also looking for a 1973 Ducati 750 GT in good condition. I wanted to own one of the classic sports bikes of all time, back in the day one of the easiest bikes to go racing but which can be used for everyday use. It's a conversation starter whoever you go and still performs brilliantly, super smooth V twin engine with a superb sound.
