Bevel Single Engine Re-build
 

Hi All,

Anyone know of a specialist/mechanic am looking for someone to do a good job on a 450 Desmo engine?
Nothing wrong with it just need a good sort out and made like new again.

You have a PM

The best bevel single tuner in the country is Nigel Lacey of Weymouth. I have his contact details, but you sound like you dont want quite that level of care ;)
Tony Brancato near Oxford is highly recommended http://www.brancatoengineering.freeserve.co.uk/
John Fallon may have some contacts, but specializes in twins http://www.mdinaitalia.co.uk/
Brian Silver of Moto Marianna near Bracknell is another single specialist, and I can dig out contact details if you need them.
Mick Walker has not done any work for many years (if ever himself !), and prefers writing now !

If you think your engine needs any degree of attention to its bevels - do NOT go to a 'good' local mechanic, as anything that goes wrong will be very very expensive to repair.

If you want active contacts, I would post on the Classic Racing message board http://www.crmc.co.uk/

Thanks guys. :)

Lucky git, I have always lusted after a 450 or 350 desmo, the last of the yellow ones with front disc brakes and tanks the same as the last 750 sports had.

Ducati technical services in Wakefield,the guys called paul,he used to race these,he's one of the top guys in the Country apparentley,not got his no,but someone on here must have.
