The Ducati Manchester “DMC Eccythump Scrambler” has been built using 1950′s / 60′s Superleggera coach building techniques, in partnership with Paul Eccleshare. This Scrambler was influenced by Paul’s 1960′s Italian supercar designs and his 30 years’ experience in coach building & restoration. A straight through handmade exhaust, hand crafted leather seat influenced by the 1960′s Italian sports car, handmade stone guards and heat shields from sheet aluminium, vintage motocross headlight and handlebars provide the form of the bike. 24 carat gold leaf painted over self-developed white and brown pearlescent base coats finish the look. The wheels were stripped, polished and painted, some of the standard steel parts of the bike’s wheel were then nickel plated to give a deep shine effect. The tyres are a low profile Enduro road tyre. Ducati Manchester and DMC Moto have set up our customisation division to offer their Ducati customers this level of handmade customisation and stunning detail. If you are interested, please contact our sales team.
In Germany, I wonder if Ducati's owners Volkswagen market it under the slogan: "Kraft durch Freude" (= Strength through Joy)?
All I'm reading from that is despite thirty years experience it still looks shite. But don't worry, you too can make your bike look like it was made by a retard on crack just come along to Ducati Manchester.
