  1. Just got a 900ss, 25k miles, 2 miles in last 4 years, less than 1,000 in last 10.

    I have started it (I know - belts!!) it does run and will sort of tick over. Not bad bodywork and engine paint for age and mileage. Doesn't seem to have oil leaks, certainly no drips.

    Was thinking of doing a full service, not sure about valves since I've never done desmo valves. Was going to run it for a time and maybe do a full refurb, engine, frame etc.

    I've got a reasonable workshop but focused around servicing and not rebuilding.

    Any advice on what to look for, where to start, Ducati suppliers and mechanics.

    Current bikes are a full dress Harley and a 1975 Triumph T160. Previous Ducatis a white frame 750ss and an 851SP3.

    Thanks in advance

    Jon
