  6. Sadly I have no photographs to share of any motorised vehicles I’ve ever owned. :(

    Bought as a write off, Purple wheels and bodywork and White frame.

    Back then it was a case of sourcing parts from the classifieds of MCN or GR Ducati’s photocopied parts list mail order. Who sadly is no longer with us after a horrific accident at Brands Hatch in a WSBK round. :(

  7. Thanks for the reply’s, I have edited my 1st post as I have learned what is I like, that’s a 1992 white frame, black wheel 851, with the later 888 body style, seem to be quite rare but will keep looking. Thanks for the guidance.
    Nick.
     
  8. True. I’ll take a better pic tomorrow

  11. The '89, '90 and '91 851's had 32/28mm valves.
    The '92's had 33/29mm's the same as the 888cc SP2, SP3, SP4 and the 888cc Strada's, making the '92 851 the most powerful of all the 851's. Although the '92's had a steel fuel tank this tank was actually lighter than the alloy ones fitted to the earlier 851's.
