My Y chromosome is functioning perfectly. As for the tools, yeah, I can agree with that list.

I could add a whole other category just covering Ducati tools after tearing down the 748. Maybe I'll do that once the project is done. LOL

I agree. The damn frame is a work of art suitable for hanging in the house. LOL

However, I think it all looks a little better like this, fresh from the powdercoater.

Oh yeah. I've got several videos up on YouTube now detailing the taking apart process. I'll be doing the same with the going together of the engine, frame, bearings, etc. Also doing a vid on rebuilding the forks and tackling the desmodromic valvetrain check/adjustment.

So far I've gotten alot of positive comments on the vids.

My grandfather had a nail from someone elses nail gun ricochet and clip him in the eye. It was also the 70's.
