I have digged up this X Sqaured Ducati Frame with colour loss on the bottom side and a few scratches.... I guess it can be classified as beater since about everything on them has to be worked:
- carbon fade mostly on the lower side of the gaskets but looking closely you see them on almost every part;
- hinge stoppers are not bend to the inside like many beaters that I have seen;
- centre screws do rotate but only with a walleva t6, therefore should be replaced in my opinion (no rust though):
- the other 4 screws are ok!
- only rubbers are OEM t-shox and nosebombs but they are enriched with DNA, at least the nosebombs;
the complete overhaul has to be done but maybe the ducati "serial" can be preserved - What is it worth?
