This stunning Ducati 350XL is an import from Japan, where it seems a number of 350XLs were re-clothed in very attractive aftermarket NCR style bodywork. It is supplied with some import paperwork, a V5C which shows the engine no. only as DM350L (the full number is shown above), an MoT expiring 1.11.22 which has 3 advisories: off side front fairing loose, noisy exhaust, and slightly perished tyres (which should obviously be replaced). The odometer reading is 16,445 km. It was last run in March this year. The vendor tells us that in his ownership only believed ethanol free petrol has been put in what is thought to be a fibreglass tank. Prospective bidders should satisfy themselves as to the motorcycle's completeness and mechanical condition prior to bidding. Sold strictly as viewed. One ignition and two steering lock keys are supplied.

Footnotes
