Ducati Cafe Racer Doesn’t Look Like This
The Ducati Condor is right up there for the crown of ugliest Ducati ever made (the 600TL at least gets a merit award too). The 350 single engine as first found in the 1967 Ducati Scrambler is the only interesting part of the Swiss Military’s bland, utilitarian motorcycle. A German engineer took the same engine and created something much more beautiful. Check it out after the jump.
Christian Klein,a skilled craftsman and Ducati fan rides a red 900 GTS. In his spare time he created this light and quick café racer. It features a custom steel frame and Yamaha RD forks. The rear is unusually narrow, with the seat being merely two sections of foam rubber inset into milled aluminum plate.
The resulting creation is lean, purposeful and especially beautiful. The Condor connection is the engine, a 350 bevel drive, wide case single from a Ducati 350 Scrambler. The same engine was used in the Condor, an ugly do it all motorcycle built by the Swiss military from 1973-78. There are some fans of the Condor who convert them to civilian roadsters!
