Oh I remember that , Ive got some of my XL185 and my (ah-hem !!) Lambretta that look like that.  No bother, just scan them or take a pic of your photo with phone or i-pad and get it on here :littleguy:

1991 Ducati 907ie

Yamaha RD 350 race bike made out of three bikes (so does that make it 2, 3, &4?)

Honda Hawk NT650

Kawasaki KDX250

1995 Ducati 900ss/cr

Honda Ascot, FT500? The single cylinder. Was going to be a racebike. Big life event happens, project abandoned and sold before it even got started.

2000 Ducati 996

1974ish Ducati 750GT  

1966 Ducati Monza

1966 Ducati Monza Jr

Ducati Bitsa  - a single being built mostly out of leftover parts from the other two projects

1997 Ducati 900ss/sp

2011(?) Ducati 796 Hypermotard

2015 Ducati Monster 1200S

1991 Ducati 851

2003 Aprilia RSV Mille R  - set up for track use

2020 Moto Guzzi V85TT

1996ish Ducati 900ss/sp Track bike

1993 Ducati 900SS Superlight

2022 Ducati Streetighter V2

 

The Aprilia and Moto Guzzi were an attempt to branch out a bit. Both were replaced with Ducatis within a couple years. 

I spent ten years trying to buy a 1954 Harley KHK off a friend. He never wanted to sell when I had the money, I didn' t have the money when he thought about selling. Someone else finally got the timing right. 

 

 

I may be mistaken but I think I see a pattern developing here.

Photos of photos, so not great.

My XS250,

My 1st and 2nd GPz750 (yes, I am overtaking on the hard shoulder of the motorway),

My first FJ1200,

My first Africa Twin and my second Africa Twin (with shiny new knobbly tyres just before leaving for Morocco)

And the back end of my CX500.
