Barn/back of truck Ducati find.

Well, hello all. I recently acquired a free truck from my uncle. When I went down to pick it (1980 Bronco) up, I found a motorcycle stuffed into the back of it.

I asked him what it was and how long it had been in there. He says it is a 1964 Ducati that he had bought brand new back in the day.

Upon further investigation he "thinks" it is a 64. All he remembers is it is a 98cc.

I am now here to find out more about it.

Seriously? Two whole hours and you didn't get an answer?

As for the year, try this;
Ducati 98 info


P.S. They stopped importing them in 1963 so while he may have bought it in 1964, and it may have even been titled in 1964 (though it likely wasn't titled at all) it's not a 1964 Ducati. According to Ian Falloon's book it's a '59 - '63
