Lorin's cherished 450 Jupiter, he has owned the bike for over 25 years and it is mostly un-restored (original paint!) and correct. The odometer shows just 12,000 miles. The bike is as reliable as any ever made and as CYCLE magazine reported back in 1970 "...has no bad habits"

Of the 9 motorcycles he owns, including 2 early 750s, this has always been a favorite. He views it as the best Ducati single to own and ride, and a somewhat overlooked sister in the big family of Ducati singles.

I think it's gorgeous, enjoy it you should Lorin, thanks for the photos
