Need Advice Regarding 851

itsmiggymoli

Good Day! I have a Ducati 851 which is missing alot of parts right now. I don't know much people here in my country that knows about this bike and the Ducati retailers wont even help me out. If anyone knows what i can do with the bike and help me out with the missing parts, please do tell. Help a newbie out.

Hi, welcome, that's a shame somebody let that bike get to that condition, you need a manual and parts list,why did this happen? Was the starter clutch faulty and the job abandoned by a previous owner?
Make a list of the pt nos you need, I would replace the starter clutch before building it all back up again!
All parts are available, that will be a nice machine when you get it rebuilt,good luck!

WOW!
Im restoring a 1987 BMW R80 G/S that was left in a wet shed for 12 years.
This ducati looks worse!
Funny thing is, this bike is 20 time more worthy of a restoration than the bike I just spent a year on!😡
I want to thank you for rescuing it and I hope you bring it back to it's former glory.

Other wise ship it to me! 😝

thanks for the reply but is anyone here willing to ship parts if ever i plan on restoring this beauty? the story when that bike was still in mint condition my relative hid the bike in the ducati retailer store in the philippines and after i got it back it was trashed.
