  4. Oooh, we got another fuckwit, did we? The Goiman server tends to filter
    them out.

    I had a 160 Monza Junior too, it was registered PVV 64J and I still have
    the tax disc from thr last time it was on the road in 1980.

    I last owned mine in 1979. Only saw it once after that. The plonker had
    stuffed a really restrictive can on it. *Total* heresy.
    Definitely one of the sweetest machines I ever owned.
    God only knows how much they are now.

    If you can find one, they weren't the most popular of bikes in their day
    and even rarer now. Mine was rebored and fitted with a Yoshimura piston
    from a 750-Four Honda 810cc conversion. At that time (1982) getting
    anything for a Ducati was absolutely impossible.

    Working ones you mean? Same story in the late 90's as well, from what I
    hear.
