This is my 450 Desmo I bought when I was 18 years old
in 1979, and I still have it after all these years.
I raced it in 1990 in the Sounds of Singles class and placed third
in the NSW Titles against much newer bikes because it was so easy to ride.
I rebuilt the SS in 2005, and it's a fun bike.
Here is a photo of the 250 desmo in the "before" restoration state.
