Here some pics when making the frame, tubes are seamless 25 mm OD x 1.5 wall for the frame straight tubes and 22 OD x 1.5 wall for rear subframe; bent tubes are welded wall Tubes . frame Tig welded with inox filler rod.
Engine, front forks, rims and swingarm are frome my late SS600.
PHF 36 carbs with blanked pumps on handmade manifolds, I did not use a Pantah style rear head to speed things up, I couldnt wait to see it running.
Tank and seat Ducati TT1, Fairing F1, all from Europlast Succi, who also modified the tank to clear some room for the rear carb who was in the wrong place

Welcome Filandro. Glad to see another one being built, and happy for your successful track day (where is a track day allowed now; certainly not in Oregon or Washington, US?).

Just when I grow happy being able to relocate some brackets or modify some tubes a guy like you comes along and welds up a frame! And others we know are going to pound out aluminum bodywork. Always amazes me.

Please Send us some progress photos now and then.

Thanks,
MikeV

Thank you for your kind words!!
Im Italian and now as my all other citizens but nurses,doctors and funeral parlour workers, Im stuck home.
First test was on a kart track last year in November, then in February we went to Binetto, a proper track in the South of Italy.
I started painting the bike in Tricolore livery (I daydreamed a Ducati F1 in my youth)but went to a stop. Hope in the next weeks this corona crap will be over and we'll start again.
Ciao
